Cool Guzzi Dealers - How Many Are Left?
« on: June 15, 2019, 10:51:01 AM »
With the loss of Moto International and many others over the years I am wondering how many Guzzi dealers are still around that have kept or developed a good Guzzi vibe.

I will start the list with:

Hamlin Cyckes - everyone has great things to say about these guys
Bethel, CT

Cadre Cycle- is also held in high regard
Cincinnati, OH



Please add your favorite to the list.

Moto Guzzi Classics in Signal Hill, CA.

Not a "Dealer", but an old's cool shop with lots of vintage Guzzis.  I've been know to visit Mark, and leave 5 hours later!

At age 65, I have a history of auto and cycle purchases, and every buying experience has been distateful with the exception of my recent Moto Guzzi purchase at Detroit Iron Cycles.  Small shop, with a laid back sales approach, and an absence of creepy sales tactics.  And, FWIW, a good price.

I'm in Muskegon, and the nearest dealer is in Grand Rapids, but I made the trip to the other side of the state for my purchase.  I happened to be in Detroit for a wedding, and it was handy to stop by their shop where they had a great selection of Guzzi's.  They had all the V7iii models, in multiple colors.  I ended up picking the V7iii Special in black.

I dropped in at Seacoast Sport Cycle in Derry NH.  At least a dozen Guzzi on the floor with lots of different models to pick from.  They are good people.

NC, one in Greensboro but I think they were trying to dump Guzzi last year. I attempted to get some help there without any luck:(

What a huge loss with the closing of Moto International! 

GP Motorcycles - San Diego, CA.:  Paul Lima and his crew are a good bunch.  Just a long way for me to go for service.

I posted this earlier but it didn't take.

Moto Guzzi in Portland, Oregon.  They are a small shop that only sells Aprilia's and MG.  I hope people patronize them to keep at least one dealer in the PNW.
