Pete Ford at Black Dragon Motorcycles a few miles SW of Yeovil is a great Guzzi enthusiast and just the man to sort out a wierd ignition problem, or some other, on your old style Tonti Guzzi.
At East Coker, he might look a bit remote, but if you have to, leave/pick up, your bike while he fixes it, a 56 bus connects with Yeovil and the wider world, and I am very glad that he is the nearest Guzzi fixer to where I live.

Didn't he make a supercharged Guzzi at one time? Or is my memory playing tricks again.
Brian.

Better 5 minutes late in this world than years early in the next.

Good to know Petes business address

I remember chatting to him at a rally (Gurt Bustard) many moons ago about his supercharged T3. It was a lovely thing of engineering beauty. Ended up with him briefly a few weeks later buying a very clean z750 Ltd from him for my (then) wife who wanted something less modern.

Good to see (from the pics on his site) he is having fun with doing something similar to all manner of bikes
'68 V7 700 - March 2023
Coburn and Hughes Le Mans II - March 2022
Nuovo Falcone - May 2020 to June 2023
1200 2v Sport - 2016 to Feb 2022
T3 California - long gone

'78 Z1000 been in bits for a while
