Well for my sins I had two Moto Guzzis, a 79 V50 Mk2 (bloody fantastic)..crashed that and decided to order a brand new 81 Monza V50 Mk3 (worst POS I ever had the displeasure of owning).




And more recently two FJR 13's both auto clutch models (I loved 'em)
Back then the Chief Finance Officer and I did more miles per year in Continental Europe than here in the UK



Stay safe folks!

The V50 Monza looks kinda nice.

Looks matter, eh?

Looked great I'll agree, but the motor and tranny were made from cheese!!
The thing just would not stay together long enough to enjoy it..I wonder how it ever got me to Munich and back!
I must have been so naive back then..no plan ..no spares, no breakdown ins and NO idea

This was my 2nd Valkyrie and my favorite. Pic was taken at the Bristol Motor Speedway Dragstrip.

You actually had two (x2!) Strom 650s?

They are generally regarded as "bulletproof". Why would one need the second iteration? Accident? Stolen?
