Here's one that should lead to general concensus
-
I wouldn't doubt that median age for both H-D and Guzzi are within a few years of each other, and that it is somewhere between 55 and 60.
I'm going to vote H-D, though, because Guzzi is selling a lot of V7s to "younger" riders...
-
What does that say? I can't find my specs :weiner:
-
I only have one comment.........."Guzzi Geezers!!" :grin: :cheesy: :cool:
-
Owners or riders ? :evil:
Wish there was a Dusty motorbike company , we could have camp outs , and breakfasts , all kind of fun stuff :laugh:
Dusty , the want to be maker of quality motorbikes for the gentleman and not so gentleman of the world :grin:

Hello? What'd you say? Speak into the megaphone, sonny.. :cool:
-
......and we must all remember that MEMORY is the second thing to go....
Huh?
-
Chronologically? Physiologically? Emotionally? (nah, all motorcyclists are little boys, even the female ones)
-
I'm gonna say that since the motor company sells about 100 times the number of bikes that MG does they have the oldest riders.
-
There are some old BMW riders too I've met. 1 of them had a cane and survived a head on bike collision! :evil:
-
I have an old friend and former, regular riding partner who lives in the San Diego area who is 85 and still riding a BMW. He's the best rider that I ever had the pleasure of riding with.

We stay in touch via email but I haven't been back to CA since we left in 2005 so it's been a while since I've seen him. He's had a couple of hip replacements but says that he's doing well. He bought a new BMW this last year so he's still very much in the riding game. John used to shame the young Marines on a regular basis when they were riding their crotch rockets on the tight turns going up Mount Palomar and he would pass them on his 65hp BMW airhead. He and I did a LOT of riding together for many years during the late 70's, 80's and early 90's. John is a GREAT guy. He taught me a lot about riding but I never got to the point where I could keep up with him when we hit a series of mountain twisties.

Had the pleasure of his acquaintance on a couple of Beach's tours in the '90s - fine gentleman with great riding skills

Take my word for it, Moto Guzzi has the oldest riders. I've only been riding one for a couple of months, but already I'm older than ever before

Who you calling old?
