 When I bought my well used 74 850-T in 79 ,I was so used to my 550 Honda with a Yosh cam and Kerker I didn't noticed that clutch was slipping I just thought it felt normal ,( you had to get the rpm's up on the 550 to go anywhere) I got an early introduction to doing a clutch on a Guzzi.

When I bought the leaking from every seal Vert, I didn’t know the fuel taps.

Ran out of gas w fuel onboard!

Worse, I had to have it towed…

Made a deal on a LeMans Tenni. Flew from Portland, OR to Sacramento, rode it around the airport parking lot. Paid the man and rode it home. Had to sell her a few years later in a time of financial crisis, but my next and current, and likely my last bike, is the Stelvio. Nothing else has this much soul.
