helicopterjim R.I.P. Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 The Griso needs the Quat d exhaust to look right 80118[/snapback] I would like to see a tastier looking version of a Quat D for the Griso - not just a box with a spigot clapped to the bottom. I think if they had something a little slicker for the V11 that would be more popular too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That ceramic coating stuff wouldnt hurt sales either I bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ouiji Veck Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 Sounds like they didn't get much advertising $$$ from Guzzi. Screw them.. I've ridden 'em all and have a beautiful 900ss in my garage. It's a kids bike. The V11 is for grownups. There isn't a single bike I'd rather have. It's all an illusion and a fashion show. The king has no clothes. My LeMans is the motorcyleiest motorcycle I've ever motorcycled. It makes my heart smile. Where's that in the stats?

macguzzi Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 I saw the Ducati efforts for the first time on Thursday, they are not very pretty in the flesh with very ugly silencers, if manufacturers want to produce replicas produce them not half assed design student lookalikes. It's the same with Guzzi and has been since the days of DeTomaso design was farmed out to Kitchen white goods designers. Why don't they ever ask motorcyclists to get involved we know what we want and how to design it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frenchbob Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 Roger that here, too! I actually chose a second-hand V11 over new examples of the Voxan roadster and Triumph Thruxton, last year. Voxans just don't do it for me and I think the Thruxton is a joke. I say that as a Triumph owner and enthusiast, too. And I've ridden one. I don't regret my choice at all. The Ducatis I like are over-priced and probably fragile [my last Duc was]. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdude Posted February 27, 2006 Share Posted February 27, 2006 Hi all, i have just 34 years but i have owned in the past 5 Ducati, 2 and 4 valves and i think my Tenni is most reliable bike than many others . I don't believe 230 kg is a ultra heavy weight and 220 Km/h is too slow. I think my Tenni is a marvellous bike Tenni#60 P:S:= Anton you have a great motorcycle. 80008[/snapback] oy, tennista! dont you have your own little forum?! dont move out into ours!

Never heard it said better. Good on ya Ouiji! KB ....if the V11 had a frame as nice as a Tonti, the new Griso box & drive, a few more lbs torque & a few less in weight - I'd agree with y'all!
