Rustic and fun machine Unique look Perfect running condition French registration title Frame n° 51GGDGM63570M Engine n° A 15616 The Moto Guzzi Falcon is a legendary motorbike of the Italian reconstruction, especially in the hands of the carabinieri. In 1969, the military and police forces asked Moto Guzzi to resume production of this rustic motorbike, which was discontinued in 1967. Steel tubular frame instead of the mixed frame and sheet metal tubes, monobloc engine/gearbox unit, dynamo ignition, more modern suspensions: despite this (r)evolution, the new Falcone did not please. Too heavy and not very efficient, it did not seduce a market looking for more fun bikes. Today, it’s almost the opposite effect, and the rare examples on the market are particularly popular, especially the military version, with the famous sheet metal saddlebags and the wraparound windscreen. Our Falcone is one of these rare and interesting machines, complete with all its accessories, and in excellent mechanical and cosmetic condition. A very interesting bike for touring and long distance travel.
