From what I've seen this Street-Rod was a tough one to beat. (Ducati Club Race Assen 2006)

I've had some time to think about Nogbad's post and what to do... I had a vision of a schoolboy quoting the Geneva Rights to his teacher. Thanks for the laugh, Nogbad. About going offline; You purposely wrote a political statement just to see this site go offline. I'm not giving you the satisfaction. I hope you just stay away.

I don't think Antonio knew

I'm not sure if I can make it to Ken's Bridge in May....

I don't have time myself, but I'll forward your message to the Dutch Guzzi board. http://www.mgcn.nl/forum/index.php?showtopic=6786

I have some used lying around. You can have them for shipping costs. You only need the weights?

I've seen the Stelvio in the flesh, and I'm sorry to say I find it even uglier than on the pics... I think it's a bad design with none-corresponding lines all over the bike. I'm planning to test ride the new Triumph Tiger which looks much better imo. Especially in orange or black Oh... Don't worry, I'll keep the V11

Oh boy, here we go... Thread pre-emptively closed...

You're spot on on the GMG. @ Slavomir: Looking forward to meet you! My ferry to Newcastle is booked; I share a cabin with Anton Polak. We leave the 9th of May; ride for a week to end up at Ken's Bridge and return to Holland the 18th after the meet.

Falchi Lanari - Gruppo interregionale Guzzisti del Sud So it's a Guzzi Club, but what it means? Maybe "The Lanari Falcons"?

Got this e-mail from MotoGuzzi:

You've got a PM

OK guys, here's my explanation. I'll keep it short and sweet. I'm fed up with all the bickering on this site. The tone of voice used in recent threads is one of the biggest worries... That aside, I get countless e-mails/PMs related to this bickering and I have to answer them all. So all this verbal shite also gives me a lot of extra work /grief. Yesterday, I reached my boiling point and that triggered me to send the blanket e-mail. And that's were I screwed up. I should have made more clear that it was not directed to the receiver personally, but that it was a warning to you all; I wasn't trying to single anyone out. I apologize for the misunderstanding. But the warning still stands and I'm not persuaded to take it back. Thx. Jaap (PS, If someone feels left out, because he/she didn't receive the e-mail ; it's probably due to the fact that you are still registered with an old e-mail address)

Good to hear from you! Too bad things have gone belly up a bit, but as the above speaker already mentioned, you'll pull through. Hang in there and keep in touch! And think really hard before selling that lovely LM...

I'd hate that too...

As always wih our pasta eating friends in Mandello, they don't use year/model standards. I've seen a german 2002 V11 LM with the new red color plastics but with the wrinkled engine and without the front crossover. Whatever's on the shelf... I don't think this will happen anymore under the Piaggio management. Fwiw, the Scura is a 2001 model.

Where's my tackle? Found it...

OK, back to latex...
