Title: JJ's Centauro
Post by: Turin on September 29, 2024, 12:29:51 AM
Picked up JJ's Centauro GT last week. It's nice to buy a bike that doesn't need anything. It feels nothing like the DaytonaRS even though they are so closely related. Love the cushy seat. Thanks Bud!

You could not have found a better bike or seller.
Have lots of fun.

looks like a garage rearrangement is in order to be able to ride the different bikes you have.

Yeah, my big blocks all went to good homes.  :thumb: We don't own these things, we just maintain them for the next keeper and enjoy them while in our custody.  :smiley:

JJ's Centauro is a very nice bike.  I remember riding with him several times.  I to am happy that it went to a good Guzzi home!

I've never been a big fan of yellow, but it's growing on me. The seating and handle bar postition is really odd. I'm used to steering with my upper body. Looking into wider bars.

During the hurricane-related outages and an annual trip with family, I missed this entire thread.. 

glad to hear it’s been an “all in the family” event- very cool.

JJ has a bike to ride when he comes down from the land of Vortexes / vortices !

mine had a set of Aflam superbike bars on it when I rode it home. They felt really nice, but I wanted the traditional Centauro bars so those bars are now on a Buell.
