looks cool to me. I am sure the Bezzi haters will appear in short order to —— all over it 

Not sure why people enjoy hating that guy so much, YES WE ALL KNOW IT'S PHOTOSHOP

The front calipers are migrating down towards horizontal.

It'll be interesting to see how many turn up to be resold after the initial buy in by wannabe's.

I think the rate of returns on a 120 Hp sportsbike, would be less than a 200 Hp one.
My rationale for that is, some Jack Miller wannabe buys a Ducati Panigale and is comprehensively hosed on a twisty mountain road by a guy on a V85...
He’ll be more disappointed than a guy who buys one of these things, the expectation is not as high and as an aside, the driver for choosing something like the Guzzi over the Ducati, is not about sheer performance in the first place.
Your initial expectations are not as great.

I still think the Guzzi (as depicted) lacks the right “curves”.
 I for one will be glad to see this slash cut angular theme




go arse ways first out the side door and the sooner the better for mine.
It’s tiresome.
The MV Agusta stylists have gone down a better route IMO. Even the V100 pretty as it is, has been done no great favours in it’s styling cues, but it would still sell like hot cakes if it looked like a country outhouse.

   +1 on your points. 

[Turin]

I can appreciate a good rendering or concept photo. meh...

[not-fishing]

Why not just buy a Duc?

I want to see a new Griso.

Lose the exhaust can.  Keep it low and centralized.

Agreed............. except for the driving part??  You ride a M/C you drive a cage and other.

Looks a bit generic sports bike with V100 motor wedged in and 120hp in the current sports bike space is laughably anemic. Why call it Le mans and not MGS-02? As much as I'd like it I don't see Piaggio letting this fly when the RSV4 exists, it really needs to bring something to the market over the rest. Let's face it its not racing pedigree and I don't see shaft drive been a major selling point, lets for a moment imagine this is targeted to a broader audience than the current Moto Guzzi owner.

It's not a horrific ill conceived pile by the same token it's not instantaneously desirable, needs more work IMO!

If I changed the word “driver” for “rationale”, would that help at all ?
