What the f*ck. Comon guy's: over at the Guzzi sites right now they are creaming they're shorts over a 4 valve Guzzi mill! We have had this for what 4 - 5 years now?! I wold LOVE to see an MGS-01 Serie that could compete with a R1200S in moto ST . . . BUT that's not going to happen. Sucks really becaues Guzzi's have soooooo much more soul than BMW's . . . ..
Oh, well, I'm going to take my BMW, which has survived a hit from 2, read that 2 deer, on a looooong ride this fall: something no Guzzi can touch: I wish Guzzi made such a bike . . . ..

I use the wildguzzi site http://www.wildguzzi.com/forum/. I love the telelever but I love my old LM1Guzzi even more. I would buy a Norge before an RT.

There is also http://morini.com.au/phpBB2/viewforum.php?f=1 which I have been reading and posting on for around six years.
I had a 950 Spada SP3 which I found to be an excellent bike until a Range Rover pulled directly across my path. This totalled the Guzzi and nearly me into the bargain. At the moment, I have a Guzzi Convert, which is a real hoot. It has a two speed gearbox with a torque converter. For town work, it's left in first gear. For faster work, you set off in second (top) gear. It does have a clutch, but this is only used for setting off. Coming to a road intersection is weird because the clutch is not used at all. All you do is brake and come to a stop. It's the original twist and go.
Guzzi/BMW; BMW/Guzzi. They both have 'soul' and are wonderful machines to ride. I have to say that I love the off-beat sound of the Guzzi, but I also love the way my Rockster goes about things.
Aren't I just the original spoiled 'Brat' having the best of both worlds
Ride safely,
