Will Your Next Bike Be A Moto Guzzi?

[Orson]

Scientific poll.

Only one choice per voter please.

[MisterSmooth]

Jeez, Orson, I'm not sure I'm ready for the commitment of "absolutely."    

But my next bike might well be a 1200 Sport with the 4 valve engine.  I live about five blocks from the best Guzzi shop in the world (Moto International) so buying a Guzzi always seems like a good option.

After I get used to hooning about on the new Mille, that is.  Heh, heh, heh.

Where's the Guzzi draped with Brazilian supermodels option?

[Rincewind]

I love Brazilian supermodels.  

Guzzi's are really cool, but I don't have any nearby dealers, and they seem a bit heavy for tight challenging twisties, which is what I like the most.  

[garry]

The "Quite Possibly" option is missing which is where I fall in. I loves my KTM 950 Supermoto, but the wife would like something more accomodating. I need to visit my local Guzzi dealer and see if they have a 1200 Sport in.

[zedoc]

I spent some time in Brasil, and I liked what I saw. I would definately enjoy that association with a Brasiliana.

[Mr. Whippy]

Hmmm...
Let me check my Italian bike manufacturer list of wants:

1. Another Ducati
2. Aprilla
3. Vespa/Piaggia
4. Bianchi
5. Moto Guzzi

Still a ways down this I'm afraid.

Where is the "maybe" choice?  Thinkin' about a Norge when I get back from A-stan.

[Busy Little Whiner]

Maybe if Moto Guzzi makes a 600cc V4 with a 360º crank...

Maybe if Moto Guzzi makes a 600cc V4 with a 360º crank...

What? with Guzzi's much loved and traditional air cooling and two pushrod operated valves per cylinder? Somehow BLS I don't think your condition is improving...

Some years ago I had my pen out over my cheque book as I drooled over an 850 LeMans. I did not buy it. Why? Not sure really but likely it was because my mind was awash with horsepower and the 850 merely delivered giggles in that department. Regret colours that whole event.

Today is another story. I am keeping my Triumph forever and am fairly sure a Guzzi is in my future but will have to come after a dualsport. I lust after the modern LeMans and would have one in an instant were it not for the usual issues of saving money for the sprogues education etc etc.

I still live with mild hope that Orson will buy another LeMans and keep it at my house in order to occasionally sample the splendor of the Kootenays.  Dream on bubba.

I selected "I'm not old enough" only because there wasn't a "I'll never be old enough" option.

Despite Orson's best efforts... Guzzi's condition has been a steady decline as a true performance machine
ever since they dropped their stunning 500cc V8 Racer... not even mighty Honda has anted up such a
gem...

Muhahahaha. Well played.

[1KPerDay]

My next bike is going to be an XR1200. If that doesn't work out, I'm thinking Guzzi 1200 Sport or maybe a tarted-up Breva 1200. Or griso.

Or Street Triple.

Unless I would inherit the thing...went on a group ride and the only new Guzzi had valve cover leaking problems with less than 3k miles on it...didn't impress me much.

[2WheelTiger]

Where's the NFW choice?

[greench440]

Like Dog Boy, I voted I'm not old enough, and never will be.

[arkansawyer]

I've been wanting one fairly bad for a while.  I can't see it in the next year or so.  It's just a fairly bad want, not a super duper can't sleep at night type want.
