Freddie Spencer talks about Moto Guzzi 

I bought Freddie's Yamaha RD400 from his father after he won a box stock race on it. Freddie, if you read this, I worked at the bowling alley behind your house.

Back when you won the 250 and 500cc world championship in the same year, you were the man Freddie.

Freddie Spencer 🤩 my Idol in the 80's when i was a Kid in east Germany. I Had a lot of Poster of him in the wall. Thank You Freddie 👍🏻

Thanks Freddie. I follow your trajectory since 1980. Greetings from Brazil.

I remember Freddie winning the double world championship in both the 250 and 500 in 1985. The last time this happened ever.

Nice bit of nostalgia. Freddie talking about "shaft effect" on the Guzzi. Didn't know Freddie ever raced a Guzzi!

I met Freddie when I was a Honda rep years ago…great guy!…I also delivered his NS-500 GP Bike in a rental van to his old school in Vegas back in 2000…such great memories!!

What a great looking bike.

I watched Freddie race at Laguna Seca back in the day with King Kenny, Eddie, Wayne, Kevin , etc.

I saw Freddie and subscribed instantly! 🏁

One of the best racing drivers ever

Ahh, "Fast Freddy": saw you racing in Spa Francorchamps in (I believe) 1984 where you won the race 🙂 Was a very sunny and warm day.

Early 90,s I drove my 87 IROC Z from CT to Heartland park Topeka Kansas.Super highlight was bumping into Freddie, best handshake I've ever experienced.

Lo vi competir en directo, en el Jarama, ere un auténtico fenómeno, el lawson, y mamola, marcaron una epoca

What a beauty the guzzi is! 👍

Hello, I saw you for the first time in about 30 years. I started the race because I admired you. You are our hero.

Nice Freddy! That thing looks huge.

Is Freddie tiny or that Guzzi massive

It's Fast Freddie! ❤👍.

Moto Goot-zee. With shaft drive, "when in doubt, gas it!" in a curve so it raises up, giving you MORE ground clearance instead of less. Mike Baldwin was the master on the Guzzi's saddle while Leoni was the master with the wrenches.

My buddy Keith restored a Daytona 1000 here in OKC. it was a Canadian spec that was EXACTLY like that, except it had the Termignoni's. His back was messed up so I took it for the shakedown run around Draper lake. I'm six four, so it had me folded like a pretzel. But on the way back, I let it breathe......My goodness, not a sexier sound. I've got the pics if you need proof. lol beautiful ride. I was sure to stop at the lake and get some pics.They turned out marvolous.

Fast Freddie!

Freddie、You are my hero forever.

Beautiful Daytona.

Holy moly, I remember him as a peach fuzz-faced kid. Great road racer.

I bet you the people talking in the background didn't have any idea who he is 😂

That looks like a winner. Takes even better skills to race a bike. One slip and you are dead. Zoom Alley is your home.

Great company. V8va Italia and Freddie

Ganz spezieller Besuch im Museum . Klasse

Good to see Freddie, I wasn’t a big racing fan but got to watch him race a couple of times at the Daytona 200.

from a daily driver that use to trip around europe with passenger and everything for camping on a Moto Guzzi V35 thanks for sharing the best of this bike: how they handle because there's no chain drive. Magnificent even with less 40 horse power fully loaded. Fix it with few tools, if needed, and thanks to modern tech for spark plugs coil and so on, reliable as hell, with a granitic gearbox!

I used to see those in the 70s but not now , when I lived in Germany I had a FJ 1200 and it would cruise 110 great but I would get passed by Mercedes and BMW automobiles like a stick in the mud .

I bought my 84 VF500F Interceptor from Freddie Spencer Honda in Shreveport, Louisiana.

Gotta wonder since Freddie rode for Reno in superbike at Loudon at that time...........was he on the track with Jimmy Adamo on the big bevel drive Duc ? My gawd that would been Italian twin battle of the American Hotshoes !!

Funny, I had just bought a 1978 Yamaha XS11 and it too was shaft drive and I learned those things myself. In addition, just letting off the gas wears the back tire because of the drag from the driveshaft. Cornering under power was strange because the bike wanted to stand up.

Essa Guzzi tem um motor muito parecido com o motor boxer da BMW, mas em V, que adotou o comando DOHC antes que a BMW.

Caro Fast Freddy... è sempre un piacere ascoltare la tua opinione 👏

Wow thanks for the tip about the shaft drive. Just got a V7!

i love that bike.

Moto Guzzi is perfection

Quanto è bella!

Question for you Fast Freddie. Do you recall the year in Daytona your team had installed air scoops on your bike and the other teams forced your team to remove them?

Hi ya Freddie, best wishes.

Outro ícone italiano.

Freddy looks tiny compared to that Guzzi! How tall is he?

WHY WHY WHY Shaft drive? Really....

Too bad he doesn't know how to pronounce it.

I remember when Freddie stole all tgat money

a champion who wastes his time presenting something that runs for 15 minutes and 2 weeks in the garage. very bad race commissioner

Freddie was/is my first motorcycle racing “hero” back in the 80s when I lived in Louisiana. He was at the time the best. He was too fragile as it turned out though. Burnt himself out physically, bit more importantly, mentally with that double championship year. It was spectacular to watch, but terminal to his racing career. Today, I’m so disappointed in his effort in the MotoGP stewards work, but hoping it gets sorted soon. I still have great respect for his accomplishments, but also bit sad for him as well.
