Title: You meet the nicest people on a Guzzi
Post by: Canuck750 on October 30, 2020, 10:47:07 PM
I think Guzzi beat big H to the warm and fuzzy advertising

Google translate:

happy holidays with the Goldfinch, docile and brilliant, the famous Motolegera, "Moto Guzzi" I will be delighted in the holidays, and will enjoy more with pleasure

My version FWIW...

Good vacations with a Cardellino

Docile and exciting, a famous Moto Guzzi lightweight will be a precious benefit for your vacations, and with one you’ll have more complete enjoyment.

Ask for a demonstration and about special offers at the dealer in your city

Quite difficult to translate and convey the meaning.  Literal doesn’t quite work.

I once ran into two girls on a scooter who had ridden from Florence to Corsica on vacation, including the ferry.  Apparently the concept lived on.  I helped them fix some sort of minor roadside problem, they gave me their phone number but I was too busy to call them later on. This was 2005 and I think 15 years ago I must’ve been a fool!

Much better translation, and a very sad story indeed!

LOL. That needs to be true ... as last summer 2 motorbikers (men) asked: Is that your father's bike?
