Apologies if this has posted here before. I've not seen it. I don't read German. Guessing it's a photoshop pipe dream. But pretty interesting....

AARRRRRRGHHHH!!!

Just make it stop!

[kidsmoke]

i think they just photoshopped 1400 cans onto an old Breva/Griso hybrid, for the opportunity to speculate. What we call 'breaking news' here in the US.

[pete roper]

Fake News more like.

Actually *Look* at the thing and there is so much wrong with it it's not funny, but it is

The reaction arm for the CARC? Where the f*#$ does that go or do?

Then there is the position of the crank relative to the gearbox! Please explain?

I could go on but why bother. Anyone who wets their panties over shit like this deserves to be treated as a moron. Why? Because they are! Sorry.

Not sure anyone's wetting their panties over this..   People always seem to like photoshopping a sport bike out of a Guzzi lump.
Everyone knows it would never fly without a license plate reflector!!!!!!

The Honda looks kickass.  A 1000cc V4 Honda sportbike?  Yes, please.  The Aprilia is a torture rack with a laughably small fuel tank. 

Both are vaporware though.  Whoever drew up the Guzzi must have seen the Harley Panamerica stacked LED headlights.  God, do I hate those.  Anyway, looks like a Griso frame and 1400 engine.  Has anyone ever weighed an entire 1400 drivetrain?  I'd guess over 300lbs.  A V-Rod engine and trans weighs 230lbs and doesn't have shaft drive.  As much as I love the 1400 engine it's really heavy.  It might be suitable for a Gentleman's Express kind of bike but not for a real sportbike.

I can't get past the Guzzi's rear wheel being so far out of alignment with the rest of the bike.

I was thinking about putting a V14 in this old Falcone that I found, recently.

The Moto Guzzi Sidewinder 1400....

It would pull to the left. Maybe they're intending it for NASCAR tracks.
