Prognostications/Crystal Ball
« on: February 04, 2016, 02:17:15 PM »
If I were Carnac the Magnificent, I think I would foresee the following:

  • CARC bikes are no more (sooner rather than later)
  • The only bikes remaining are larger and smaller: 1400 variants, all using the same basic frame, and V7/V9 variants, all using the same basic frame (with the V7 being phased out over time)
  • All bikes have RBW, ABS, TC, and ride modes
  • Moto Guzzi Garage options abound for customizing one's bike

What do you foresee?

I see your predictions correct, Jeff. I personally think it's bullshit and a bad error of judgement for Guzzi.

Guzzi will be showing replacements for the current CARC bikes at EICMA/INTERMOT in November.

Jeff...If I can extend this thought just a bit, it should/would/will mean that we are sitting on a future collectible!!  Our Norges will become sought after like the LeMans of the past!  May just have to wait 10 or more years to reap that benefit...in the meantime, ride it all around! 

Woo hoo!   :grin:
