next time we meet up I'll try to remember my camera.

BTW, he thinks it's ok. He used to race CCS expert and is very critical of the bikes he owns. I bet he'd sell it if someone pitched money his way.

More like an Italian Harley, Moto Guzzi held on to "tradition" a wee bit too long imho. I've only ridden two 'Guzzis (friend's bikes) and I didn't really enjoy it. Like FNL said, they were VERY vague and never inspired any confidence. Of course getting off a GSXR and throwing a leg over this type of bike will skew your impression somewhat.

Here's a question. Is it pronounced "goo-Zee" or "goot-Zee"
