Beauty! Søren

It's also our dream to have that many Guzzi's on the track. It will be a little bit like this: Wow! Looks like you guys had a wonderful day despite the rain. Seeing so many Guzzis gathered in one place is rare so thanks for sharing, Guznax I really fancy the white Le Mans (5:06 - 5:39 mins), that's a cool looking motor! Could be an upcoming paint scheme for my Scura when I get my new aluminium tank from John Williams/The Tank Shop primo March, inshallah. Good luck with your event and I'll be looking forward to more mouthwatering video clips. Cheers Søren

Nice mufflers, Phil

Hmm, what's wrong about being/getting old(er), David? I like the new Nortons; a genuine bike it is and I wouldn't mind having one parked in the garage. It's still true to its roots and it somehow resembles the old Commando. High five from me. Cheers Søren

..and this one Will - hopefully! - look sharp on the Scura. Still thinking about a new paint scheme but won't have it done until nxt winter.

Hey they looks great! I would've gone with a flush gas cap, but it still looks awesome. Do you plan on getting some more polished pieces to compliment the tank? I ended up buying a 2002 V11 Lemans from MPH cycles. It will be here in Michigan in about two weeks time. I can't wait. I almost went with a flush cap but I wanted the bike to have an "older" feel to it. It is also offset to the right so it has a unique look to it. A polished front fender would look really nice.........would have to adapt something. Will get this going for a bit. Was toying with painting the tail red or something. The nice things with these/our bikes is they are relatively inexpensive compared to new so you can only mess them up so much. Bob Looks the dogs bollocks, Bob! I've requested a Daytona style tank so it's a bit different from yours. Also asked for a solo seat with build in rear lights..

Yup! Still waiting....

And guess who received a call from John Williams/the Tank Shop yesterday evening? Yup, yours truly. John will have my tank ready first week in March (give or take a couple of months.. ) so I'm looking forward to receiving my bling. Have a nice weekend everyone Søren

Hmm, not my cup of tea to be frank...... And how about this lsd-trip cobber Guzzi? My link Søren

WSB 2000 Hockenheimring wow! I just granted myself a 46mins lunch break thanks to you, Orson Boy, I miss Pierfrancesco Chili! Balls of steel he had/still has. And Mr. Bayliss, of course! Have seen him numerous times on the European race tracks. He's so consistent; hardly ever crashed, taking his Ducati to the limit. A true racing hero in my little world. Thanx! Søren

Nope, It isn't. Wish I had a 10th of their racing skills; would make me king of the pub

Thanks, Keith That's racing in a nutshell. Noticed Neil Hodgson in the start up line, he was ace at that time. Something about he started racing in the US Superbike Series or what? Haven't seen him for many years on European race tracks. Cheers Søren

Spot on, Jaap. Won't make the big headlines but will probably be a joy to watch for us the chosen few. Can't wait till WSB/SBK/BSB season kicks off! Best entertainment to watch on the telly; far better than all, the reality sh*** Danish TV provides nowadays. ESPN Classic TV runs some of the old WSB races occasionally and yesterday they showed the WSB Monza race from the late Nineties where you had all the action one can ever dream of. Slight, Foggy, Corser, Chili and Edwards went from the gun and gave each other a close race to the checkered flag. Chili pipped victory 0.007 secs from Slight with Fogarty and Corser trailing ½ a second away! What a race! I can only recommend watching these races; puts a smirked grin on your face from ear to ear Race on! Søren

He's a knob. Full stop. Riders like him put a bad label on all of us. It only takes one tosser to categorize all motorcyclists as raving lunatics. Watched a documentary from BBC yesterday, "Cops", it's called, about motorcyclists driving erratically in Sussex, UK. Funny part was that they were not youngsters with way too big bikes; they were all grown up men with a death wish. One of the rozzers said he'd scrape up something like 8-10 riders per year! Makes you think..... Don't get me wrong; I also like to go fast but never ever in a build up area. Putting the hammer down on the German Autobahn whenever possible is fun but nothing I would do downtown Copenhagen. Time for grandpa to take a nap. Slippers off, put the pipe on the table next to my nice cup af tea and doze off for half an hour See you all on the roads very soon! Cheers Søren

Hi, Rob, and congratulations with your birthday Long time no see so I hope you're alright and everything is fine up North. Best wishes Søren

Hi Ducman and welcome to the club of black wrinkle wonders. Been there myself when my Scura turned into a warthog. See this thread for more info. Best of luck! Søren

Young Mrs. Guzzirider once told me the true meaning of the word 'fluffer'. I do see images that I really cannot cope with, Guy.....

Congratulations with your burgundy V11, Matz :-) Mighty fine bike and a very nice colourscheme. AFAIK Mrs. Guzzirider is one of the few other burgundy bike owners here in this forum but I'm probably wrong. Hope to see you on the roads next year. Cheers Søren

:grin: watch out, Ed Milliband, David Cameron and bunch: Here comes the new political star in UK: Mr. Guy Lewis, OBE, MBE, WTF etc......

July in Germany we used to have a lot of fun here: Treffen V11Sport.de Grebenhain Go to "Bilder ..." to get an impression of what's happening there. It's best to come with a tent as most of the available rooms were booked directly after the last meeting. Hubert Ermmm, what are you German guys up to, Hubert?? Kinky!

Took a virtual trip to Isle of Skye on Google Maps and that looks absolutely fab! Will need two days to go there but I'm in. Only thing is I have a conference in Finland 15-17 September next year, so.......

No riding here in Denmark as the country is covered in snow. On top of that we had icy rain this morning! Hate it... And that's a bloody beautiful Commando you have, Gino! Just got myself a new screensaver for my PC thanks to you )

Thanks, Callison! Søren

Me again, I wouldn't mind a trip to either Ireland, Wales or Scotland. For me it's just one-two days work on the road. BFG has done a mighty fine job organizing two rallies so he has done his tour of duty I would say. With your job in mind, Fergal, I presume that you can be called in with a very short notice, right? Would be a pity if you have to cancel a rally 5 minutes before closing time, if you catch my drift. Any other Irishmen who can give a helping hand? The Netherlands are within reach for everyone due to its location in the centre of Europe; we have been in Sibbe twice and we love the place but why not aim for the "outbacks"? Kari from Finland also talked about arranging a rally in Helsinki so there are plenty of opportunities. As far as I see it we have the following gameplan for 2011 V11 Rallies: May: Denmark. More to come August/September: UK (Wales, Ireland, Scotland) or Finland. Are there any other volunteers? Søren
