The Moto Guzzi Galletto was conceived in the late 1940s as a vehicle with intermediate characteristics and performance between a motorcycle and a scooter. The prototype was presented at the Geneva Motor Show in 1950 and the production of the first series, equipped with a 160 cm³ four-stroke engine with an integrated 3-speed gearbox, was started in the same year. In 1952 the second series was introduced with a 175 cm³ engine (192 cm³ from 1954 onwards), 4-speed gearbox and various technical improvements. The third and last series was introduced in 1961 and it was kept in production up to1966, when the ownership of Moto Guzzi passed from the Parodi family to the SEIMM group.
