MCN in the uk has ridden the 8v, " a charging rhino" " almost as if a turbo chimes in" and 140mph potential. Might have to buy the rag tomorrow to read the whole thing :glare:

I got the mag this morning and 8V does get a resoundingly positive report.

 

"virtually all-new engine

80% of old Griso engine replaced

truly aggressive stomp from 6000

crank 55% stiffer

I was shaken by the way it took off like a rhino with a spear up it

revamped front end... such a class act that it wouldn't be out of place on a World Superbike grid

thunderously impressive... delectable... different... not only BMW who have to watch out – Ducati and Triumph too"

 

 

and Honda's CB1100R retro racer air cooled four concept looks nice enough too

 

Now, how does one go from £0,000.00 to £8,000.00? PM me with answers please.

But I have an half answer. I will tell ya if the next V11 rally will be in Ireland :notworthy:

It's a deal!

May 2009

NW200

and rides round the Antrim coast road, Glens of Antrim, Sperrin mountains, Strangford Lough...

 

and by that time you might have the complete answer

and the 8V will have some of its bugs sorted out

and will probably have gone back to 2V per head

 

and bikes will be running on fuel made from seaweed

y'all know there's a bit of vid on youtube?

There is a true air of quality about the current guzzi range- they look very well finished. That euro friendly silencer on the Griso has to go though.

I desperately hope they are planning on putting that engine in the new 1200 Sport package quickly. That's what I'll wait for before I decide if I need to lose the Ballabio.
