Moto Guzzi Article[edit]
Thanks for the watching the accuracy of the Guzzi article. If you put the info here, I'll add the links. Also, if you could find any more good solid data on Wittner, it would be much appreciated. 842U (talk) 20:19, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
- Heh. No problem. I was just curious, as I am a Guzzi rider, what was on the Wikipedia article. The specs on the MGS-01 Corsa are on http://uk.motoguzzi.it/Nuovi_modelli/mgs01/tech.asp?modello=mgs01&pagina=scheda (and now I see the Wiki code autolinks URLs. Cool!)
- As for John Wittner, he keeps a rather low profile, apparently. Googling does not show much, except for what all Guzzisti know: he was a dentist who raced Guzzi's in his spare time, and built an endurance racer that so impressed Guzzi that they hired him as designer. The first production design based on Wittner's racer was the Daytona, which took the lowers of the Carcano engine, and put SOHC heads on it.
