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.

The air-cooled AR 80 had approximately 10bhp, the liquid cooled model possibly more. This article states the AR 80K has 3PS (roughly 3bhp) which is incorrect.
If that Vmax would be the truth, that bike would be the burner...but I'm sure that this is only a typo and 85 kph more likely. The AR80 which was sold in Germany during the 1980s fitting the 80cc class was said to be barely able to hit that speed due to its comparatively weak engine.
