a 1972 norton commando , had it as a daily transport.spent all my time and money on the thing, tried all the improvements in the book, it ended up in as new condition.but even then it was amazingly unreliable. gorgeous bike when it ran....but that wasnt often
My 1200 Sport was sometimes that way. She would play nice and be the wonderful companion you dreamed of, but you never knew when she was going to suddenly slap and curse you! She was my first Guzzi after a life filled with Japanese bikes, so I kind of didn't know what I was getting into. It was definitely a love, disappointment, love, and disappointment again type of relationship. Yea, I think I get it now.
This was a Guzzi Breva 1200 Sport?!? I am very surprised to hear this, and I ever heard of that happening on a Guzzi before (??)...Could it have been a tire or suspension issue?
Bought a brand new 78 Kaw Z1R.....had it for a total of 3 weeks....saved my money/spent all of my $$ that I had on it, added S&W's, a jet kit and a kerker.....about as much bike as you could buy at the time. First week while riding to work I had a jacket strapped to the back, it came off wrapped around the rear sprocket and locked up the rear wheel right in the middle of an intersection, just about got ran over. The next week while seeing how it did against my buddy's Z1 I ran off the road coming in too hot to corner went down an embankment and smashed up my new Kerker.....but I didn't crash some how?? Third week was uneventful until someone stole it. Only had liability insurance because I paid cash for it all.......ever since I have been Kawasaki shy
