I like this one, that’s exactly the bike I took from London to Nordkapp in 2015.
20,000 k on that trip, bike was faultless after the recall done in London and the rear bevelbox seal in Oslo and the dashboard warning light in Brno.
But I would not hesitate to have one again if every Guzzi in the world suddenly ceased to exist.
They do give you confidence.
I cannot remember what I had for dinner last night, but I remember when my wife and I when to the North Carolina to buy this bike. It was cold and we ran into snow on I-81 near rocky gap. We had reservations at nice hotel and around the corner was a Carabbas. I had sausage peppers and onions, and it was not that great. I also had a gin and tonic and a Yuengling Lager. Forget what the wife had. Next morning we met the seller a nice older gentleman that was in a hurry as he had to take his granddaughter to karate. He lived in a very nice house and his driveway was on an incline curved to the left into his garage. We made the deal loaded the bike and we headed home. We stopped for breakfast at a diner but cannot remember what I/we had. Got home around 2pm.
This bike was bought right before - hit and I thought the bike market was going to collapse. It ended up going bonkers. The bike sold to a younger guy from York PA later that year.
Funny how I can remember silly things like details froma bike ourchase years ago.
