    Love to take a 675 out for a test-ride some stage. They do look and sound great.
    Of interest, my Guzzi's previous owner traded it for a 675.

    Hmmm,....I've never been to the Bay of Plenty,...could be a good summers weekend ride
    Tell you now, you have to learn how to ride all over again when you get a Guzzi. Rather strange habits.

    What's the riding position like on a 675 ?
    When I sat on one at WMCC, I thought it was quite tall rather a very hunched over position, like more extreme than a Gixxer. Be a tad uncomfortable 'round town wouldn't it?

    the 675's are quite tall parked next to my mates r1 it is taller in the seat height. Only marginally. I try to avoid towns but the little time spent in them i haven't really found uncomfortable at all just the normal sportsbike tired wrists e.t.c. On some really long rides the arse gets a bit achy but if you are doing a few days riding it gets easier. No leg cramps or back aches which is saying something coz both my knees and back are suspect to say the least.

    oh and by the way a powercommander and after market exhaust are definately worth the expense. I have the triumph "race track only" exhaust and the sound alone makes it worth it

    I must admit that the hamilton dealers are well worth visiting. And you can always find a park.
