Smith "Motor Wheel"...interesting...

Yup. And you can tell it's a civilian model, and not the CHP cruiser because there isn't a crash bar on the back. It could be an Ambassador or an Eldorado - they have the same frame and sheet metal. Judging from the shiny hubs, there is a possibility that it was restored at either Cycle Garden in Huntington Beach, or Moto Guzzi Classics in Long Beach (the hubs aren't polished from the factory, and those guys usually polish their restorations).

Not that I'm an expert, or anything. I'm just cheating. :)

(this is my OTHER other motorized bike)
 
The "other bike" of my dreams- mid '70's Eldorado.

Red please. With the hard bags and the really good two up seat.

Nice custom 'ya got there!
 
Beautiful bike ya' got there Blaze...
I really like the new Royal Enfields, and Urals, as well as the Guzzi's.
Maybe one day soon...
 
RE's and Urals are both more like these motoredbikes in that they need a LOT of TLC and tinkering...the Guzzi's just run and are loved by their owners. :)
