If I did not have my Centauro...
« on: August 07, 2020, 10:26:05 AM »
I might consider one of these.  Had an orange '75 750 SF2 back in the 80's...it was a "BEAST", not so fast, but very solid and heavy at speed. :cool: :thumb: :smiley:  This is a nice example from Bend, OR. :thumb: :cool:

I like this game, If I did not have my Centauro, I'd have a V11 lemans or a V12 Breva sport.

If I didn't have my old Cal 2, I'd want the new Cal Vintage.

The black one, of course. No flies on the red either, I prefer the bags & stuff with the older look.

Lucky Phil's Green monster Huzo, it's fantastic

I was going to mention the previous Greenie looked like it has a Magni fairing which I think really enhance the V11 styling

It does John.
That 900SS Ducati look.... :drool:
I’d even wager that the Guzzi carries the fairing nicer than the Duke due to the wider girth.

Yes, this green also looks quite nice on some cars as well, esp the slightly more restrained V7 variant. I wasn't sure the Gunmetal grey would look ok next to the Green on mine but it seems to work.
