Hello everyone from Germany,
since it is not that easy to find stuff like this here overseas i wanna give it a try here.
Short while ago i bought a very clean 1972 Moto Guzzi Eldorado 850 (Police) from a german collector. The bike was brought to Germany in '97 from a guy who worked in the US since the 70s. When he bought it it was equipped with all the neat police gear but unfortunatelly when he came back and took the bike with him overseas he completely converted it to an european "California" model. You would not do this nowadays... My dad was a bike cop around 1/4 of his active duty here so we would love to bring the bike back to its former look partly. At least as far as its allowed within german regulations as a daily driver. I allready get me the Eldorado style brackets for installing the spot lights (Dietz 9-51 would be the most correct ones) and shot me some Dietz 4-70 (chrome version). I know the lights were originally silver painted but since it will be a civilian hybrid i am looking for chromed housings.
Long story short - i am looking for:
2 x Dietz 9-51 chrome (preferred) or 9-50 with yellow/amber lense due to regulations
2 x Dietz 4-75 chrome with red and amber lens
Should be in good condition if possible. I would be happy about any offering.
Oh and PS: if someone, somewhere has a Guzzi police solo seat sitting around let me know :-D
