I heard the next Gold Wing will have air conditioning as an option.  You get a special two price suit with a connector for a 1.5 inch hose that pumps cold air into your jacket/pants with special air channels sewn in for even distribution of cooling.  Will also work for heat!   Drool

 My first two bikes were Buells. I was never really happy with them and I told myself "Never again". Then this thing came out and I REALLY want it....

I just want my KTM 530 to start every time I push the magic button today. I am day-dreaming about the day I can trust that otherwise great bike to be reliable. It's not a good feeling to be highly anxious (in a bad way) before heading on ride wondering what is going to F up today and cause me grief.


That was my 950SM. *sigh*

And yet I'm still day dreaming about a 690 SMC that I can flog around here. Even in my daydreams, the SXV is too much maintenance!

I've always like road bikes like the C14's and FJRs and such, however, this is the bike that has my attention these days.

I think one of these as equipped as shown and with another topbox and a few basic farkles would suit this rider's needs quite well. I'm likin' this bike..... Inlove









THis bike is soo in my dreams...sexy italian bird..

I love my multistrada.. a new one is probably the only think I'd consider replacing it with in a while.

However I'd love to have this in the garage beside her.  Inlove



^^^ +1 on both of those!^^^

I always giggle thinking about twisting the throttle on this one, but I would never own it....  Couldn't afford the tires....

^ Primarily THIS.  I want this with that exhaust.  I'm saving up money now.  Ideally, I would love to be able to get this and keep my Adventure.  

If that's not the case, and I can only afford to own one street bike, I may consider the Norge or Multistrada to replace the Adventure.  The new big Tiger would also be in the running.

To be honest, if I'm able to afford having two bikes, a Ural Patrol is a close second place to the Griso for completely different reasons.  My problem for both the Ural and the Guzzi is a lack of  local (i.e. w/in 5 hour drive) dealer.  I could get to a Triumph or Duc dealer w/in an hour from my house.


Here I am less than one month from this post and what I’m thinking about today has changed.  I am no longer dreaming of a Guzzi Griso.  Instead, I am now day dreaming about taking my new-to-me bike for a long ride.  Lol

I sat on one at the dealer today. Luckily I value my life too much, and need to keep my license for my job, so that keeps me from doing anything but dreaming
