Blame it on Super El Nino.

Up here, El NiƱo makes for more winter riding, not less.

A link to the European offers from Moto Guzzi (here to the British website for your convenience): http://uk.motoguzzi.it/motoguzzi/UK/en/accessoriElifestyle/lifestyle.html?model=CASUAL&typology=JACKETS . I up to now have only allowed myself to spend my money for a genuine Moto Guzzi baseball cap. But some of the stuff is really nice. But pricey.

Did you notice the patch in the upper right of the right blurry photo?  (upper left to the wearer)

That's too funny. They are unknowingly promoting the screen name of a late Guzzi forum member.
That's the combustion chamber of the turbo shaft. It is supposed to be on fire. You just don't usually see it but the case and fairing fell off.

If the quality is decent, it is not a copy of a factory offering and not directly competing with a licensed product - free advertising. No harm, no foul.

Just a very expensive bumper sticker.

I just bought a leather jacket In Mandelo del Lario. The ones at the factory and the dealer were made in Pakistan.

I bought one of those E-bay Pakistani via Canada jackets in 2007. ( not the flashy ones shown) All in all the quality is great, especially for the price. My only gripes are that the collar is a little large and the wrist closures are snap only, no zippers. If you like your gloves under the sleeves then you are in business. The leather quality is really good . Buy from the seller directly so you can give him your measurements. I can not buy off the rack due to my height so this is a great option.
