Equally strange is the inability of the owners of so called 'exciting' bikes to string an illuminating or positive sentence together at all.... Very odd... After reading through a lot of this site you could conclude that taste is entirely subjective and that perhaps the humour to enjoy a modern sports bike must require (as a minimum) appreciation of such modern classics as 'Jackass' (ie the ritual and televised humiliation of your fellow man)? .... Or perhaps the riders are all so wired from their wild rides that they don't have time to write or ponder?
As a general observation... Some of the most enjoyable works of motorcycling literature have been generated by, or dedicated to, low volume 'enthusiast' bikes. Moto Guzzi in particular has a very literary ownership base. (try 'The Perfect Vehicle' Perhaps you should pick up a Moto Guzzi owners club magazine some time, the standard is usually quite high.
I know most people bag Guzzi, often for good reason, but I can assure you that I have never met a more decent group of hard core riders in all my years. Make of it what you will....

btw - Most bike owners would be happy with 1993 Corolla levels of reliability and economy!
To err is Human, so that's makes me more human than the rest of you.
A well deserved dressing down Paul and quite right. I was out of line slagging off another brand, even if it was intended as light humour. Feel free to fire a broadside at Kawasaki and charge it to my account.
Slip up number two was using the word 'taste' - totally open to personal interpretation. But I do reserve my rights to have a personal opinion on Corrollas, that to me are one of the most bland vehicles on our roads.

Ya see MD..... a Guzzisti isent about to take a swing at Kawa or any other brand, as the Guzzisti appreciate all motocycles, a bike is a bike.Originally Posted by MD
I agree that a Corolla is a bland vehicle.... Guzzi can not possibly be put in this category, just cant happen.
Paul..... Guzzi poetry as usual
What a great read that article was..... and knowing the qurks of a Guzzi I fully understand were he is comming from.

Pritch, it's potential big time liability issues if we don't get an answer soon. Intellectual property rights cost money, and if you want a copy it can be requested from the Dom-Post. Reprinting here without permission is a little dangerous especially in the country of origin. If challenged Spank Me will be liable as the domain holder. Are you going to contribute to the fine and is Shadmeister ever going to answer that he had permission from the Dom-Post to reproduce it here on KB? Btw, linking to another site, prefereably a Fairfax owned one, is not illegal. Reprinting it here without permission is.

Jeez you Guzzi riders are a touchy bunch.
You'd think the callouses would be tougher after all these years.........

Well I'm not really sure. I'll try to find out if the fellow has a problem with it being reproduced considering he has already been recognised as the author. Nobody here is trying to gain anything from it.
He doesn't own it once it's published. You have to ask permission from the Dom-Post.

Get me a ride on a jackal, I always liked the look of them. Probably one of the best handling cruisers around.

Ohhh.....water cooled you say? I think I've been putting the water in the wrong hole!Originally Posted by dangerous
The main reason I'm on the air-cooled is because I wanna be just like you and ignore all advances in automotive technology in the last 30 years. Mind you, my bike is 25 years older than yours but had still left pushrods behind 5 years before.
Do you still adjust the points with cigarette paper?
I'll be at the Hare, I'll try to get there before 7.30 so I catch you still up.
