Those 'ugly bastards' have really grown into themselves and become quite cool.

I've just ridden my Guzzi home from work in a proper monsoon. judging by the condition it was in when I bought it, I suspect this is the first time it's ever seen rain.

I've just got in from the garage. It's not spotless, but it'll do. I joke about Italian build quality, but I don't think I've ever owned a bike that feels as premium in it's fit and finish as thing.Skub wrote: ↑Fri Jul 10, 2020 7:15 pmIn the morning there'll be nothing left but the seat.KungFooBob wrote: ↑Fri Jul 10, 2020 6:00 pm I've just ridden my Guzzi home from work in a proper monsoon. judging by the condition it was in when I bought it, I suspect this is the first time it's ever seen rain.

Rode the twisties down to Cochem yesterday. A day of play ahead in and around the Eiffel Mountains, Moselle valley and probably pop in to see what's happening at the Nurburgring.
I love waking up and seeing this view from the hotel especially when the roads are dry and the sun is shining

My 6ft+ 'John Cleese lookalike' mate had a ride on my V50. Came back, said how he liked it. We then told him that he was actually sat on the pillion part of the seatKungFooBob wrote: ↑Sun Jul 05, 2020 10:01 pm Jeez, I didn't realise I looked like some kind of giant riding a monkey bike!
Even bland can be a type of character

I had a little run around the North Yorks moors including the "Yorkshire TT", once in each direction.

Best bit and with only 50ho it was the only chance to wheelspin. Tbh such a nice power delivery it would be great in a scrambler for some gravel roads
