Probably the closest I'd get to admiring the looks of what is loosely an ADV bike.

Fuck, that's lovely.

The Levante is very appealing too.

Is that the Guzzi design teams idea of a "scrambler" using the engine the same weight as a main battle tank ;)

Aside from the silly passenger seat, that's nice... if that exhaust wasn't too loud, which I suspect it is.

Not bad. But I think I prefer this one https://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=ht ... egUIARDYAQ, if they ever actually launch it:


Or this one, which is mine:

Don't they have a new big bore engine out? The V7s were pretty little bikes but only had around 50bhp and I think the TT was only around 70bhp pushing well over 220kgs around?
