Don't argue with stupid people, they will bring you down to their level and then beat you with experience.

Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once.  I have lost my mind, if found handle with extreme caution because it is dirty and maybe dangerous.

Yeah, but that 3.7 gal tank just pisses me off to no end.  Especially since I want one real bad....

What pisses me off is that Guzzi sales are so low, that (despite 2 dealers within 30 miles) I can't test ride one.

And yes, I want one.

Yeah, what gives with the shrinking tank sizes on a lot of bikes?  Headscratch

Got me.  There was a time when BMWs  and Guzzis held over 5 gal.  You could also get fat aftermarket tanks.

My Breva has a 6-gallon tank.  Not sure but I think the Stelvio is also in the 5 or 5+ range.

But I agree, incredible shrinking gas tanks is annoying.
