    2009 Moto Guzzi Models

    I see the 1200 Sport gets the 8V engine, the Stelvio gets ABS and the V7 is in a new colour scheme, but when oh when is Guzzi going to bring out a new "V1200 Le-Mans" with the 8V engine, ie a proper sports bike with decent suspension ??

    The 8V "1200 Sport" -

    Your so right, they have not had a new performance sports bike since the V11
    Everything has been cosmetic since, now they have this 1200cc 8V motor, they stick it in a 'sports cruiser' (Griso) or grandpa's Breva'ish package ()and have the nerve to put 'sport' in the name. It is apparently quite a grunty unit, seems a shame they don't go back to their roots and produce a cafe/sports beastie.

    Very dissapointing, personally I would like to see the big 8V dropped in the new V7 with clip-ons, now that would be cool.
