Looking for a new bike...guzzi advice please

[richard100t]

I'm A NUMBER 1 man myself, but I'd do all of them if I could (preferably at the same time).

All this numbers are getting as bit confusing....let's use A B C and D...

in this case DD...

[Guest Dave Pott]

I-LOVE-BELLY-SHIRTS ......on hot looking women w/hardbodies, that is

 

I must say, I've never had a vibration problem with my wrists/hands while riding the Ballabio. Maybe because of the upright position with the weight more on my butt than on the bars??

 

I've done several 10+ hour days in the saddle and never had a problem with sore or buzzed out hands or wrists .....my butt was starting to talk to me though

Try the Moto Guzzi Alce..... most trustful of all Guzzi.

I drove a single cylinder Yamaha XT600 from Los Angeles to Belize and back several years ago. I averaged roughly 300 miles a day. Which is plenty for me even on a FJR. I'd consider the RM a luxurious tourer compared to the XT.

Hey Paul - XT 600's are as rare as hen's teeth (at least around here). I've never seen one other than my own, but I understand they were big in Europe in their day. Mine's been bulletproof and spot-on reliable since I did an "intervention" on it and rescued it from an abusive/neglectful PO. After a new top end, rebuilding the wheels, SuperTrapp IDS2 pipe and rejetting, mine runs like a champ. It's just the kind of bike I'd use for the trip you took. How'd it hold up? Any problems? What tires did you run? Any significant mods you could share?

I am stunned that more people haven't said that number 3 would be the definitive girl out of the 4

[Guest Bruce]

I like the brunette, no wait a minute the blond, no wait, I can't make up my mind. We need more data or a test ride

[DeBenGuzzi]

I think I like the blond so much because she's wearing Hot Pants, and she's so Hot in them. could use more displacement on her twins but thats a mod that can be added later. And for sure I'd need a test ride (or several dozen) b4 I could commit to anything.

Isn't that some kind of German fetish? Or is that Number 2? One's Japanese and one is German. No wonder they lost the war!
