A new toy for me thread

Ohh yeahhhhhhhhhhh............. It just had to be done, since selling the Guzzi in my profile pic and buying a new Firestorm something was missing

So.... I just had to buy me another, Guzzisti you guys know were I'm at aye

Ok so its a Moto Guzzi V11 Nero Corsa possible the only one in OZ & NZ there are a couple of Roso Corsas but as the name sugests they are red not black.
The bike has Ohlins suspension Brembo brakes and 'real' carbon fiber, the paint ia a metlic black and dark gray in the Corsa checkered flag design.

You know as soon as I hit the starter I knew I was on a Guzzi again with that crash of metals as the big starter turns over and the sideways motion as it fired up. The big heavy clunk as it drops into 1st and the riding of the clutch to get rolling and as I started moving I forgot how the bike leans/pulls to the right..... god I love it

BTW....... for all you doubting Thomas 'NO' nothing fell of it on the way home (that I noticed anyway)

It sure looks fine, if slightly bulbous, though that's surely to contain the power within. Happy ridin' guy.

Have you got it already?? Well at least you will be able to keep up with Skyrider.

It does look great in black, but those pushrod covers will need to be painted.
