Moto Guzzi V7/Ambassador/Eldorado/850 Probably redirect all these to a single-page history of this series. Main articles on each one later, if desired.
Wire wheels: Wire wheels#On motorcycles says only main article: Motorcycle construction#Wheels, but that is not a main article, it is a subsection. Bicycle wheel is a better article, but none of these 3 actually explains how spokes support the wheel pre-stressed w/compression.

At the moment the article has a photo of the bike from the front, and a photo of the bike from the front leaning at 10˚. Would it be possible to get a photo added of the side of the bike? Either one, not fussy. 124.169.108.38 (talk) 08:27, 31 January 2009 (UTC)Reply
Good idea! Done. For future reference you could have easily done it yourself by following the "Wikimedia Commons" link at the bottom of the article and picking a suitable photograph. --TimTay (talk) 10:25, 31 January 2009 (UTC)Reply
