Title: Guzzi Porn
Post by: Kiwi_Roy on April 30, 2018, 12:38:07 PM

I was talking with the owner of this rare beast at a swap meet in Vancouver
I think he said one of 75 in British Racing Green
I never had a chance to ask if he posts on here

That's lovely Roy

TBH was never a big fan of the Centauro styling but that looks absolutely stunning, I'd buy that in a heartbeat

If you're looking for one in green, I know a guy here in Houston who is looking to sell his.

I’ve never ridden a Centauro, but I’ve always aadmired how they look. The English Racing Green is beautiful...

Appreciated

They ride GREAT!  It fits me well, and they are a "Torque Monster."  They need to be upgraded / sorted, however.  Having owned 3 Le Mans ('78 850, '83 850, '02 V11) ,and one 93 SP1000-III, I can honestly say my '98 Centauro GT is the most fun I have had on a Guzzi to date. :thumb: :1: :cool:

Gotta admit, I’ve always liked the looks of the Centauro. Don’t know why the weren’t more successful.

They were too expensive (about $13K) and people either totally loved them or totally hated them. :shocked: :shocked:  The total production run was only about 1,918...and only about 245 on the GT's...

The green is by far my favorite for the centy, followed by the red.
