what's in the box Bill?

[docc]

I'm ready for another subtle clue . . .

[Scud]

The label on the box says Stornello. Is that subtle enough?

[docc]

That kinda cuts right to the chase! 

[Bbennett]

good choice for a wide range of range of riding conditions and one that is true to the Guzzi heritage -- where they have been doing scramblers since "way before it was cool"

[Bill Hagan]

Yup.  Stornello.

 

Mine will look like this, tho it should be fledging this morning and ready to roll when I get there this afternoon.

 

 

 

 

Regrettably, will pick it up on trailer as today is C minus 1, i.e., fast day (& more) for quinquennial colonoscopy tomorrow, so I thought riding it back a bit risky. 

 

 

 

 

It is, of course, possible that there will be more pix on return.

No pics of the procedure please.

Having seen a Stornello V7 II in person, I was really impressed with the fit and finish and all the nice pieces.

 

The Stornello pictured is a "II" . . . yours, as well, Bill?

A "II."  Think all Stornellos are.

 

Mebbe "Scramblers" are "III.'s

 

I should probably care more, but don't.  Was going to wait to see what, if anything, the Piaggians did with the 9, but thought I might be toe-tagged first, so just carpe diem'ed.  Glad I did.

 

Pic is from return home.  More, of course -- wanted it or not, tho none of "procedure," swoosh    -- later:

 

 

 

 

Now off to take first shot of the colonoscopy cocktail.  Blech.

Is this colonoscopy anything to do with re-calibrating one's butt dyno?

Here in the States they highly recommend a peek at 50 yrs old. I had mine a year early so I'm good for a while. I asked for a copy the video and they said they don't record it. Right...

[docc]

I've seen lots of threads go asstray, but this this one . . . . my, my . . .

Congratulations Bill,

 

An early Birthday present; the best kind.

Interesting that a guy who is old enough for a butt scope is buying a bike targeted towards the man-bun crowd.  Must be a second childhood thing.  Gotta admit, I like the new BMW R9T Urban G/S a lot.   And I'm about due for my 2nd scope.
