I'll fill in what else I gleaned tomorrow, water cooled engines??? and such.
I'm with Rocker. It's grotesque. And how could anyone who wasn't blind and/or brain damaged describe it as 'Sporty'? It's an enormous, ugly, indulgent turd of a thing. The person who dreamt it up should wake up tomorrow with people shovelling dirt on his face!Unspeakable!Pete
forget that...here it isI am all for a full tourer with a fairing.
You guys say what you want about the blacked out bagger look, it sells. It sells a lot. I could definitely see riding this with an 18 inch front wheel. It oozes bad ass-edness. Thats what my generation wants. Only thing i think could of been done better is if Guzzi brought this bike to the market 5 years ago. other than that, I think they hit the nail on head. They have the Norge for all you old guys and the v7 for all you simple dudes, the stelvio for the dirty-minded and now this for those who want to be badasses.... I think this is great. It will draw more people to the brand, which will create more revenue which in turn might create a new LeMans of something. I think it looks sweet. Bet its fast as hell compared to all the other baggers too....
Well the Audace is an actual model! Parts list is up on the website.If you have them in the USA you've got them before us as they aren't here yet.Pete
That chap from CT is a friend of mine. I'm sure you all found him agreeable.
One of guys told me that they were stopping at the Guzzi dealer in Brooklyn. Well, it's mostly a Vespa dealer but that is another story.
They all told us that, right now, the factory marketing effort was focused on the V7 line and the California line. Prospects for the other models are taking a back seat for now.
I asked the lead guy about a sport bike like an upgraded MGS/01 and he of course said no to the sport bike and really didn't know about the MGS/01.
I suggest calling your dealer and asking. If the Guzzi show is coming there, they'll tell you and I would expect give you an invitation.
And I'd do that if I had a dealer...
awesome...
