Not sure about the other two spots...

Another candidate for one of those spots is, of course, the V7 Sport with the first Tonti frame. The original "Greenie", if you like. Very pretty, and a milestone in the evolution of the Guzzi concept.

The 1000S was very pretty, too.

But I haven't ridden either of them either, so it is all based on looks.

Yet, with all of those great Guzzis, why the V11 SpineFrame?

Red-headed stepchild? Underdog? Secret succulent? Snakebite?

Because it works. All the character of the predecessors, but with the benefits of progress.

Later models might be technically better, but the V11 is a successful package.

If I were to here criticism of the V11 models, I would be prone to ask the critic if he or she has ever actually ridden one. Hearing one start is already very convincing. Actually riding one should convince any fair dinkum motorcyclist of what it is all about.
