Woody up in Cincinnati had too many Guzzi’s in his garage so I helped him by buying this one.
Such a gorgeous motorcycle, they don’t make em like this anymore!

I've always loved this model... Back in the day when I was still firmly entrenched in the Yamaha brand I saw this bike released and wanted one. Unfortunately at the time there was no accessibility to a Moto Guzzi dealer.

Right now I can't really justify adding one to the mix. If I did, I would have to eliminate the Norge or Griso. Every once in awhile I see one on Craigslist.

I wish when I bought my Griso that one of these was available.

Nice!

Looked real hard at that one,just a little too far to pull the trigger. Good luck with your new ride.
