This Moto Guzzi Nevada 750 didn’t look nearly as good as it does now when Ian Birch first found it. Its former owner had left it uncovered and unloved for several years, and the bike was covered in rust and running on one cylinder, but the Guzzi ran fine after Ian swapped out a faulty coil. Birch started first custom motorcycle build by stripping bare the frame, repositioning the upper shock mounts, and dropping the forks through the yokes by 25mm. He chopped and looped the rear seat and mounted a set of 18-inch wheels to give the Nevada a flatter stance. He had the frame powder-coated and the engine rebuilt and painted; plucked a fuel tank from a Guzzi V50 Imola; wired the bike to Motogadget mo-unit Blue; and had the seat and grips trimmed in antique leather. Birch says, “The bike sounds awesome and has an aggressive stance, and I just need the lockdown to end so I can get out on it!”
