Cleaning up a neglected Moto Guzzi Nevada 750

- I bought a second motorcycle!
2007 Moto Guzzi Nevada Classic 750 with less than 8,000 kilometres on the clock, that's only about 500 kilometres per year on average!
It had been pretty neglected and was suffering from rust and corrosion. In this video we'll give it a good clean. I use Australian products where I can and where they are good quality. In this video I use a lot of Bowden's Own products from Queensland. They are great! (not sponsored! my genuine opinion). Check them out here:

I had to ride over 400 km to get the bike home from Sydney. About halfway it broke down and was stuck in Newcastle for a week - thanks to Brisan Motorcycles (@brisanmotorcycles2926 ) and Eurobrit Motorcycles (@Eurobritmotorbikes) for getting me back up and running again with a new fuel pump.
Also thanks to Thunderbikes in Western Australia for supplying the new old stock parts. Mario is a pleasure to deal with and specialises in Moto Guzzi - check them out at www.thunderbikes.com.au
I tried a few different cleaning techniques. Some worked better than others. The handlebars were quite pitted and needed the 0000 steel wool with lubricant and metal polish. Not perfect but better.
There's still more to do but at least I can ride it and not be ashamed haha!

Hi mates, really enjoying the new bike. I bought it to increase my riding opportunities. The tracks around here are still too wet for my comfort. I’ll probably take turns with each as conditions allow. Hope you’re all well. Let me know if you have any questions about the Guzzi 😊 cheers!
Bike cleaning is incredibly therapeutic. Even more so when watching someone else do it 😊
😁
Mines got over 25000 miles and the only problem was started that just went down. Not as quick as my SV 650 but really close. And quite quick in the curves compared to my other cruisers. The motor being designed using airplane engineering is overbuilt and tank tough.replaced the brake shoes as stopping power is amazing and great gas mileage. Love it and it's a keeper.
This is good to hear as I just bought one today. 17k miles, but seems well cared for.
My favourite cruiser-style bike!
It’s great for me too. I like the style and sound and it’s light and not overly powerful- just enough for easy cruising and highway speeds 👍
When the blue rubber gloves came out... I knew things were getting serious. It's not about the bike... it's all about the cleaning products. Mind you, nothing like a sweet Italian bike to get the juices flowing. It really is in great nick for 16 years old and a few of those left unloved. Your camera work is very good, so good in fact I'm going to let you film my next mega hit vlogg. Of course there's no money involved; but think of the exposure!
Haha ‘glove snap’ time for your annual check up Mr Faffing😁
Happy to do a co-lab project 😊
@@motonumnum You know how to show an old fatman a good time!. Maybe I should pedal up your way and hang my hammock for a catchup? What's it been? 43 years or so? You were home for the weekend in a 5.0 litre Torana if I recall correctly.
Congratulations on that wonderful motorcycle. Your videos always have excellent flow and videography. You were able to make a bike cleaning video interesting & worth watching without any bikini action. Great work! Always love your vids. Wahoo! PS hope you don't mind if I share.
Thanks Keith! Yes, thought I’d put people off if I wore the bikini 😄
@@motonumnum Lol...Love that beautiful motorcycle!
Although, bikinis are nice
😁
Looks great, and came with luggage, what a bonus. Enjoy 👍🏻
Actually two sets of panniers, hard and soft, plus a huge expandable tail bag, plus a large tank bag. Very happy with the purchase! It was definitely worth doing the clean up and repairs 👍
Felicitaciones hermosa esa máquina !!
Congratulations and enjoy! 🎉
Thanks mate! 😊
Complimenti 💪💪💪 dall'Italia
Thanks mate! 😁
Have you been watching Some Guy Rides.
