I believe the Ambo started in the 13xxx range. Sounds more like a V700 with
that number and the A. Bet Ian can tell you.

Subject: engine number
Last weekend at a Guzzi breakfast I met a fellow with a white Ambo who was interested in my early V750 sidecover decals. His bike had the smaller tank with the early gas cap, and carbs with the remote bowl. He wasn't sure of the year, seemed to think it was a '69. I suspect that it may be earlier than that, and perhaps a V700. The engine number was A12157. I remember some discussion a while back on the list about some rare 'A' number engine, I think it was Ian who had one. Can anyone comment on what this bike is? Thanks, John Prusnek |
