The Moto Guzzi Le Mans is a sports motorcycle first manufactured in 1976 by Italian company Moto Guzzi. It was named after the 24-hour motorcycle endurance race at Le Mans in France. The Le Mans designation was first used for an 850 prototype, based on the V7, displayed at Premio Varrone in late 1972. The original 850 Le Mans was a café racer with clip-on handlebars and a bikini nose fairing, but in the face of more and more powerful bikes from other manufacturers later models were developed more as sports tourers with a three-quarter fairing. It was a marketing success.
This 1978 Moto Guzzi Le Mans was purchased 12 years ago. Part of a small private collection, this Le Mans is a very original machine with correct numbers. A large number of old MOT Certificates, going back to 1984, suggest the mileage is correct. It is offered with a current V5C and an owner’s handbook. Due to having been in storage, some recommissioning should be expected.
