There is a rather short legged woman here in the NE that gets along great with her 16 inch wheel on this, much lower to the ground, for anyone working those problems...big block option for short legs, think she had shorter rear shocks, too

Looks really nice, but rather dear, for a 60,000 mile and 22 year old bike

Homely looking, 16" wheels, not a big seller when new. Guzzi built the Mille GT to use up all of the leftover parts.  :wink:

Yep, that's why I turned mine into a rat.  Better a rat than homely :)

That stock seat sucks so bad.  Like sitting on a 2x6 with a towel over it.

Much better to get a Mille or SPIII.

PS I do like mine, after I added a custom seat, SPIII fairing and new shocks.  Every now and then I think about getting a newer bike, then I go out and ride it with a grin on my face.

May be the worst seat I ever sat on.
