I've been curious to talk to the new Guzzi dealer in the Seattle area so I dropped by there this afternoon. I'm quietly hopeful. They're not MI, I don't think they'll ever be MI, but I think they could be a good small dealer and they genuinely seemed to be motorcycle enthusiasts. If folks are in the area, I'd encourage you to drop by.

They have a number of both Guzzi and Aprilia bikes on site and will be getting more early in 2018 (January-ish it sounded like). They already know a number of us are enthused about the V85 and think they'll have some around May.
