docc Posted October 18, 2017 Author Posted October 18, 2017 I see that I may re-title this thread after this year's EICMA . . . "Hopes for Moto Guzzi's 100th"
vents Posted October 18, 2017 Posted October 18, 2017 what's new from Guzzi, to Jim Dandy ...in 9 posts. Twisted there goes the neighborhood !
docc Posted October 23, 2017 Author Posted October 23, 2017 See? That Terblanche segue my be why Moto Guzzi hasn't gone out on a limb since . . . What year was that?
luhbo Posted October 23, 2017 Posted October 23, 2017 People wanted to organise public vomit parties when it was presented. Today they probably would give a lot if they could get only half of it. No clue about the year. What says Google?
coreytrevor Posted October 23, 2017 Posted October 23, 2017 2009 V12 LeMans. Dingdingding! Mirrors so you can keep an eye on your arms.
luhbo Posted October 23, 2017 Posted October 23, 2017 He's got a homepage, of course. Interesting read
docc Posted October 23, 2017 Author Posted October 23, 2017 I’m rather glad they not keep him around beyond that one splash.
gsp0702 Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 Received the Clan email today and it's bit on EICMA had the following:- "To start with, those of you that joined us to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the legendary V7 are going to find many more good reasons to carry on celebrating, in fact, as many reasons as the number of new special editions of this iconic model that will be on display at the fair." So looks like more V7 special editions, and a little cagey on other stuff, but hey who doesn't love a V7 special edition, new Stornello anyone. 1
motortouring Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 Those are not mirrors, they are camera screens. The little tubes on the cylinder covers are the camera's. So it is intended to look at your knees. Good sense of humor those Italians.
Bbennett Posted November 3, 2017 Posted November 3, 2017 Ahead on EICMA 2017, BMW is teasing a mid-size ADV with chain on left and exhaust on the right: https://auto.ndtv.com/news/eicma-2017-bmw-teases-f850-gs-ahead-of-official-unveiling-1770802

Maybe that's fine in some countries, but it sounds like something I want to stay far away from in the US. Back to bikes... somebody posted on WG that there will be a mini Stelvio, and that Moto Guzzi's Facebook page shows a single track through the desert. Me like single track in desert. Dessert?
docc Posted November 4, 2017 Author Posted November 4, 2017 "mid-size ADV" is a great trend that I want to see succeed! So, like a 673cc 3-cylinder Guzzi deezle. That's "mid-size", right?
brubache Posted November 6, 2017 Posted November 6, 2017 Well Ducati crushed it. Let's hope we see something awesome. Waiting....
swooshdave Posted November 6, 2017 Posted November 6, 2017 Well Ducati crushed it. Let's hope we see something awesome. Waiting.... V9 with fatter tires...
