Title: How many different Brands of motorcycles do you currently own
Post by: twowheeladdict on September 18, 2021, 02:07:03 PM: Gathering information to get a picture of motorcycle ownership among the members of wildguzzi.
Title: Re: How many different Brands of motorcycles do you currently own
Post by: twowheeladdict on September 18, 2021, 02:08:30 PM: I currently own Moto Guzzi, Harley Davidson, Suzuki, and Kawasaki.
Title: Re: How many different Brands of motorcycles do you currently own
Post by: SmithSwede on September 18, 2021, 03:19:49 PM: Three different brands, but all Italian.

Moto Guzzi V7. Ducati 900 SS. And a 1999 BMW F650, but that model year was made by Aprilia in Italy.

Post by: centauro on September 18, 2021, 03:49:42 PM: As some of you have already posted, since retiring, and a weak back, I only have a Vespa and a '73 CB350 Four.
Now, if Guzzi offered once again a sub 400 lbs, 350 twin, I would be all over one.
Alternatively, if a 350 Moto Morini came up, I would be interested, as well.

A V50 is 348 lbs dry, still under 400 curb. I find my '82 V50 III to be just as much fun as any of my Morinis were, but with a bit more power. Just something to consider.

But in the past had 29 MGs and about a dozen Japanese bikes and a BMW. I stayed pretty busy fixing up bikes as a young man.

Still hanging out here because MGs were such a large part of my life for so many years and I really like most of the owners. Yinz are good guys!

Now my Guzzigander motorcycle rental business is no more, I guess I'll be culling the fleet somewhat.

Still, it's going to be difficult to sell. I'll probably start with models I have two of.

Post by: berniebee on November 01, 2021, 04:22:27 PM: When it comes to motorcycles, I've settled to being a serial monogamist. I've had several bikes. The few times I had two or more, they started to whisper "Why aren't you riding with me?" when I took the other one out. They would purposely get in the way when I did stuff in the shop. They would all whine for washes and valve clearance adjustments and carb syncs and oil changes. Tires and bulbs and cables. "Hey, SHE got a new air filter!" "Yeah but SHE got new tires!" The bickering was endless. It got to the point where I had to leave the garage just to get some peace.

Don't know how you guys do it.

Not a huge change however, I did just add a couple, one Guzzi Ambo Project which I have no idea why... and a very cool '79 GL1000.

Sunbeam?

Yes, a 1949 S7 Deluxe (the first year for the deluxe) I sold a 1954 model earlier this year.
I can say after working on many motorcycles over the last 45 years they have little in common with anything.
