... want.
But, probably will create same aches 'n' pains somewhere.
Would need a test ride to validate.

Those are beautiful bikes indeed. Those golden wheels are truly pieces of Italian art.
Strange, I expected to like the Green version most, but now, after seeing different pictures, I think I like the white ones best. Would LOVE to take them for a test ride!!

Our local dealer now says they might get one or two in March. And that the deposit line is getting longer…

Hahaha….my Moto Guzzi experience with dealerships is that there’s a good chance the dealer won’t be in business or carrying the brand by then.
Guzzis are great bikes in my estimation with a small loyal following. Their Achilles heel is an abysmal dealership network with limited ‘competent’’ mechanics available throughout the US.
I’m riding a CB1100 as my first choice, a Griso wasn’t an option because the dealership which sold me a V7 dropped the brand within a year of offering it. As it turns out the CB may not have ‘character’ as defined by some motorcycle enthusiasts which prefer more mechanical feedback but it’s STONE COLD reliable. Something the Moto Guzzi has not been from day one.
