I'm not sure what "tuition support" is supposed to be. Here's the original Italian:El soporte de la matrícula también es nuevo.

The quoted text says license plate bracket is also new.(in Spanish, not Italian)
I see 4 motorcycles.V7IIIV9850tt1400 California and sisters.No sports/touring motorcycles.No sport motorcycles I see where Piaggio is going with Guzzi.......Have fun.
That was kind of my thought until I thought back to 2002 where you had1100 California sistersV11 Sport and sisters750 NevadaMaybe it has gotten a lot better
Indeed. Or 1998. You had your choice of a Ev or a Centaro, period, that was it, take or leave it!
Received the brochure this morning on the TT, and the entire lineup is in it. Not a bad selection for a company that's been going out business for 97 years
OK. How are they offering a Carbon Dark when mine is supposed to be number 9 or 1921? Didn't think they were supposed to make any more.
Key word would be Centauro (the mythical beast) Everything has been downhill since then :)
I see this "badge engineering" as a good thing for a small brand like Guzzi. They have a few good, tested platforms and make variations. A different approach is taken by Harley. In the Harley world, a lot of riders see the bike as a starting point and Harley has spent decades cultivating this mindset in its riders, and a great idea it was. However, the dealers had to stock massive amounts of chrome parts for all of the various bikes. As a former owner, I could go in to the store and walk out with a $25 part. Or, walk out with a $2,500 part. Many times, I was in the dealer and just bought some small chrome doo-dad and Harley made a profit every time. That model would not work for Guzzi because the dealers are generally so much smaller and don't have the space and cannot afford to carry huge amounts of "add ons" in stock hoping they will sell. As such, my point is (finally) that the prospective Guzzi buyer can buy a bike already customized. With that business model, the dealer only has to stock the bikes themselves as they would have anyway. I like it.
Weren't they only supposed to make 100 Racers? Means nothing.
You talk like one of those old duffers sitting around a campfire still crying about the paper newsletters going to email!!!
Looks pretty good to me! Now only if PIAGGIO would support their dealers in the USA!!
"But today we have the internet and fast transportation. I ordered the extras I wanted for the V7 and they arrived at my home."I agree, but going to the Harley dealer as a thing to do for fun for Harley riders and it is those impulse buys that generated a lot of revenue. Also, with MG, if you want to buy a stone and customize it from the net, you still have that option, so, best of both worlds as I see it.
