The 850 Le Mans was introduced in 1976 and had a four stroke OHV two valve per cylinder air cooled V-twin engine as developed by Lino Tonti.
The Le Mans II of 1978 had some modest modifications including a different rear mudguard, black fork sliders, the De Tomaso tail light, and a larger one-piece seat made of injection molded foam, the engine featured cylinder bores lined with Moto Guzzi’s patented Nigusil.
The Le Mans III had many changes, most notable were the improvements to the engine including changed cylinder heads and cylinder barrels, the pushrods were moved outwards in preparation for a later increase in bore size, carburettors and exhaust systems were changed also, so the result was increased power and torque.
DGO was first registered with DVLA in 1989 and has ownership records back to 1994 with Neil Hopkins then long term owner in 1995 with John Ross, MOT history goes back to 1994 at 42,137 km, through to 2013 at 50,349 km.
