-headflap-. The Nero's not shaft drive is it?

Nothing wrong with my arse...... all transverse twins by Guzzi are shaft, 97- 05 are all exposed like a car, so use a regular type of swing arm.

Never been a Goozi fan, but thats actually quite nice on the eyes, as is the sporty model that 2much posted.
Quite nice indeed.

If I had 20k to spend on a bike the Griso would be first on my list for a test ride 2nnd ride would be Thruxton and then a speedmaster. The lines of that Italian machine are fantastic. OK some guzzi's look agricultural and really are only dressed up briggs and straton garden tractors with power to match, but this thing looks awesome. wass wrong wid your fellas eyesight. black one for me.

well mate just to inlighten you here... altho the 1100 sports only rank a 90-100hp, I am only 2secs faster at ruapuna on my VTR1000 @110hp, so dont think for a min that the Guzzi's cant get down and boggie

B&S tractor..... gezzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
