Great way to build up a bit of mystery though.

It's their 100 year anniversary this year and this is the official image/poster...

What's that in the bottom right... it's a slightly blurred new model!!

That's ace. I'd happily have that on the wall despite not liking Guzzis

Classy. I remember building a model of the V8 racer during one of my bike induced convalescing periods.

I've seen an MGS-01 in the flesh at a Cadwell track day, lovely looking thing, dripping with quality go faster bits. Shame they never made a road legal version.

The Guzzi dealer in Loughborough, which is also where I used to get my bike MOTd, had one in their showroom for a long time. Marvelous looking bike, doubly so to me 'cause I was 19 at the time.

Anyways, this blurred one...

Image

Doesn't looks 'classicly' shaped like the V7 and V9, I wonder is its going to be a competitor for stuff like the MT07/CB650/SV650, etc..?

Knowing the Italians and their QC, it may well look like that in real life ...

My V7 II Classic is a proper quality motorcycle.

It'll also probably be for sale soon as lock down lifts

My V50 had rust from new. That one looks to be mouldy.

They seem to have forgotten the Centauro which was designed in recognition of their 75th Anniversary ☹️
