The small displacement Guzzis are very rare in the US and parts availability is going to be tough. The G5 1000 and 850T mentioned by previous posters are completely different animals. Those big Guzzis are Tonti framed and pretty much share platforms with the 850 Lemans...parts sharing is possible and there is decent support for these models in the market.
Moto International is one of the big names in the US for old Guzzi junk, and they are kind of a pain to deal with. The other big name in the US is Harpers.
Small Guzzis are unique and they will handle well and sound cool but they are not powerful at all. Even the 1000cc Guzzis from that era are somewhat anemic IMHO.
