New Guzzi.

Post by Dodgy69 »

I can see this attracting a few who wouldn't normally go for the brand. Ticks a few boxes. It's nice looking imo, with some nice bit's and pieces. See how the reviews go. 👍

There are a few too many different colours in there for my liking but otherwise I think it's nice looking. I've always had a soft spot for Guzzis.

I like it but I'd probably spoil it with panniers and a top box. :D

The exhausts exiting from the side of the cylinders. Why did no one think of this before?

Probably because about a million bikers have already said "it just looks wrong"!

John and Ponch looked cool on the back of a trailer with a pair of Kawasakis though :)
