Just introducing myself to you all 

I'm a recently returning biker after suffering stroke 6yrs ago ( not what I expected at 43yrs old ) and this is my first foray into the world of guzzi ... So pls be gentle with me ! Lol

I've spent last 5months resurrecting a 98 Cali 1100 EV into a Scrambler ... Someone had started it some years ago but then it stood uncovered outside for 2yrs ... So it's took some sorting with time and money ! 

I'll try post pic for your discussion or approval ... It had its first shakedown ride today before MOT on Weds :)

Any ways .... Thanks for having me onboard

Hello and welcome to the forum.   Seems like your well on the way to recovery and good to hear your back on the road.

Will love to see pictures of the bike especially as I can't get my head around the thought.

Good to know you are back into biking.

Unfortunately it won’t let me upload pic CryI’ve read post about how to do this but I’m not completely computer savvy ... so may have to ask for assistance on doing this so you can look see ... I know I’m pleased with how it’s turned out Smile

Welcome. Thats a bit harsh, having a stroke at that age. You're getting the best therapy though. Be interested to see your bike when you figure the posting process
