They need to follow Honda's lead in 1959 and enter the Isle of Man TT.
Sure they'll get laughed at and the learning curve will be steep, but like Honda, if they persevere, they can soon rule the roost.

I'm sure that thing will stomp Guzzi first race, every race.

Shirley you jest.
That thing might pull a lead in the twisties, but the Guzzi torque would mop the floor on the Mountain section.

Nice bikes. Glad to see it looks like the front disc brake is standard and not optional on the new model.
27.5 HP - better hang on!
