Had fun writing this article, with lots of content from my son, Alex. I bought the bike in March, the rest of it can be found here:

It dawned on me yesterday that I hadn't gotten the link to the members only section. I just renewed so I missed your article for now but I will go back when Frank lets me back in. :laugh:

Thanks for the memories, Nolan (and Alex) ! I have fond memories of the 1000SP I rode from Indiana to SoCal and left there to ride in the canyons. It was bone stock and would happily drone down the interstates at 80 or so with practically no intervention by the driver. :grin: Yet.. it was more than "competent" in the mountains. I consider it to be one of Guzzi's best.
