How many Guzzis in your neighborhood? More Guzzi owners than we think?

As I was walking my dog around the block the other day I decided to count the houses and motorcycles. The one block street I live on has 18 houses. 15 are occupied. There are 7 motorcycles. behind my house on the other side of the block is a similar house count with 3 bikes. On the other side of that block are three more bikes that I am aware of. I walk to the stop sign at the end of my street and within a half block there are 7 more bikes. It is like that all over this town. During the weekends when people have their garage doors open it seems as though every fifth house has a bike or two in the garage or driveway. What is the bike density like where you live?

rocker59:
Lots of bike density in my 'hood. Very few of the bikes get ridden. Well, once per year during the big biker rally, but otherwise they sit in those garages...

Adk.IBO:
3 houses on my road, 5 motorcycles, 2 get ridden regularly for now anyway.

Lannis:
Really hard to tell.   

Almost all the motorcycles are kept inside, and very few are actually ridden.

I did pass a nice FZ07 Yamaha on my road in the fall, going the other way.   The rider turned around and chased me down, followed me to the house.

He said he was so amazed to see a motorcycle on the road that wasn't a cruiser-HD-clone that he had to find out who was actually riding a Stelvio!

So they're pretty rare!

Semper-guzzi:
There's about 7-8 bikes in the hood. About 25 homes or so. My neighbor takes his boys and the dirt bikes out nearly every weekend. The rest of the riding is done by me. Very seldom to the neighbors pull out their Harleys.
