New Moto Guzzi V100

Look what Triumph just dropped, does that not remind you of Rox's Le Mans a couple of posts up?

Yeah, nice lookin' tic-tac. To be a lean teenager again. (*sigh*)

Yes, my poor old bones wouldn't last on that type of bike, clip-ons are not for me anymore. I can just about get away with the Daytona for a day with my converted LSL Superbike bars.

Reminds me of a 2006 Yamaha FZ-1

It does yes

I can understand a need for a small fairing in a bike like this, it's a lot of performance for a naked bike and sustained high speed can be very fatiguing if nowhere to tuck into. For some reason speed and street triples that I've had a chance to spend time with both had a tendency to become very turbulent at around 120mph.

And sure, it does have that air of big nakeds with bikini fairings, like a Bandit 1250 or a TL1000 or a VTR1000, very few exist nowadays, my mind goes to Aprilia Tuono, or r1250rs

More good comparisons, forgot about the TL1000, the V-Strom motor donator.

I actually like that bike a lot, very easy to ride, lots and lots of grunt. Had a chance a few years back to spend a little time with a Cagiva Raptor that has the same engine, it was just as fun to ride, maybe even a little more
