Jan 2026 I took ownership of a 1949 model.

I'm looking for past or present owners.

Thanks

Thanks Dave, I was beginning to think I was the only owner. I’ll have a chat soon.

Hi Mac,

Might have asked before but have you a choke slide for the cable operated MA13 carb?

I have never seen a carb like that on a Guzzino before.

I think I’d try and find a complete original carb.

This eBay guy is a good source and breaks old Italian lightweights:

EBay:

Bebricambi (41396)

I have had Guzzino parts from him.

Do you know a source for Capriolo parts by the way?

Sorry- looking more closely the carb might be right. Still try Benricambi though.

The early editions had a MA13 carb which the choke-cold start was a lever operated slide as photo. If I could find/borrow one I maybe

able to get one reproduced. I've searched the world BTW for one. In Italy it probably was never needed, that's why mi carb it was missing. Slide 2 MA13.jpeg

The MA13 Dellorto were also used on the Lambretta but used a cylindrical choke mechanism.
