It is truly just dreaming.  Dakar has a 450cc limit, and I think they are going to reduce it again to slow things down a bit.

That was not pretty. Hope Guzzi have managed to make long lasting U-joints by now, because it (they?) will get a real workout with that swingarm angle.
Current bikes:
2002 BT1100
2018 V9 Roamer
1982 XV750/1100 mongrel
1990 XT600Z
2001 NT650V in bits
