Are you in Europe?
You might pick up a ujoint (although there is a fellow in the states
that rebuilds them). Voltage regulator, switchgear boxes (pillboxes),
exhaust nuts, carb kit, various bearings, top end parts, transmission
input spline or any clutch parts are all things you'll need in the
future. There's not much on a Guzzi that 'often breaks' (maybe the
switchgear?), but there are a few parts getting harder to find.
How much money do ya' got?

Hi. I'm going to a dealers tomorrow who is clearing out his used Guzzi parts.. Theres not much I need at the moment but am looking to pick-up stuff that I may need in the future.. any suggestions of hard to get items or things that often break?? I'm thinking generator bracket, spare levers in case of the bike falling over, indicators etc etc.. 2nd question - my bike is an 850GT, european version of the Eldo.. are the mudguards and tanks the same on all V7 based models?? I believe the disc front-end guards are different, and my tank doesnt have the chrome panel.. other than that are they the same, as I'm looking to to try and pick-up a spare set of 'bodywork' Thanks..
