Bike DetailsApproximate currency conversion: €8,500 <-> £7,601 Manufacturer: Moto GuzziModel: Super ALCE Year: 1948 Engine Size: 500 cc Cylinders: 1 Price: 8.500,00 Moto Guzzi Superalce from 1946. Four-stroke, single cylinder 500cc. Weight: 187 kg, top speed 110 kph. Vehicles used by army were painted gray. Guzzi motorcycles were first used by the Italian army in the late 1920s, and the first model designed specifically for military use, GT17, was introduced in 1932. GT17 was based on the civilian GT16; it inherited its 498cc inlet-over-exhaust engine, three-speed gearbox and sprung frame. 4810 GT17s had been delivered until 1939. In this year Guzzi developed for the army a lightened and improved four-speed version, the GT20. It was renamed 'Alce' (elk) soon after its introduction and would serve as the Italian Army's main military motorcycle during WW2, in excess of 6000 being delivered up to 1943. In 1943 Alce was updated with the more powerful overhead-valve engine of the GTV/GTW in single-port configuration, becoming the Superalce, which remained in service with the Italian Army and police well into the 1950s. Moto Guzzi continued to produce the Superalce until it was replaced by the Moto Guzzi Falcone in 1955. The super ALCE for sale here is in extremely original condition , so very likely barely used in it's military life. |
