I was sat at Rhencullen in '02 when the Tenni raced. Watching it go thru the kink looked like it had a hinge in the middle The spectators nearby looked at each other and shook their heads Ol' Ashley whutshisname had his hands full. If I recall correctly (could be wrong) he retired with a broken steering dampener.

I'm coming from an FJ1100 and I find no problems sport touring on my V11. Granted, the FJ may have been a bit more comfortable, but 8 hour days on the V11 don't kill me

I'd heard Sweden was "nuthin but trees" Can you provide a route map?

That would conveniently come before the Mayan calendar end of the world thingie

I've always like Haga and hope he bags a title before he shuffles off to the old folks home He deserves one after losing a title to "diet pills".

I thought I read sumthin about Denmark a few months ago.

Well, I didn't stay in town long, so my opinion could change I do know that it was immense fun to ride in the twisties

When are you moving to Switzerland so i can plan my next visit?

Is there any update for the Team Jaap & Bros racing team?

It's a shame, seeing the young'uns being pushed aside in the scrum for ice cream! It's nice to see the smiling faces of people enjoying themselves. Wish i could have been there. Maybe next year

60,000 km on my Tenni. Must be a Tenni thang

Looks like the same place!

www.motorcycle-usa.com "Moto Guzzi is apparently considering supplanting some of its more modern power-trains into machines with classical styling like the V7 Classic. Favourable response to the older styled machines has been marred by comments about its lack of get-up-and-go." "This would of course be the cheapest way for the factory to give the fans exactly what they want, despite initially rejecting the idea on a cost basis. Insiders are now suggesting that such a move is now under consideration, even more so when you read on below!" "While they think about that, Moto Guzzi admits that it is going to launch a brand new machine with the California moniker for 2010. The 1200cc machine will be its new flagship model, according to the press department. The original was launched in 1971 as a touring version of the V7, but based on a police specification model. Ten years later, the capacity was upped to 948 and in ’93 it got fuel injection. Expect the power-train to come from a Stelvio!"

Welcome!

Here's the Buttertub Pass north of Hawes Here's the goat trail leading to Dent Dent main street. The Sun Inn in Dent has it's own microbrewery...or at least it did when I was there in 2004 and the singletrack road up to the Hardknott Pass

Thanks for the pictures!

Thanks for the write up! I enjoyed it

Are you unhappy with your Scura?

Something doesn't seem right. If it's an official Guzzi model, why would the factory allow pictures to be taken outside the factory?

I had to use Guzzi Assistance when a rear wheel bearing failed in the Dolomites. Fortunately, this happened right in front of a hotel. They had a truck there within 2 hours. Maybe it only works in Italy

damn... sorry to hear this

So did I. I thought '02 models were the problems
