I like it better than the new Ducati Scrambler;


...it has two rear tyres.

I was going to say with tires that big and no power, it would be more likely to get stuck in the mud than ride through it.   Tires notwithstanding, it does look good though.

Don't kid yourselves. Neither the Ducati scrambler or the Guzzi scrambler were ever intended to get anywhere close to the dirt. Possibly easy riding on gravel roads but that might be pushing it too.  Just like the old Honda CL72 - CL77 and Yamaha Big Bears this is only a styling exercise.

No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori.  Good people drink good beer.  Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.

Yep, this ^. They are for urban hipsters. But unlike skinny jeans I would love to own either one...

Interesting take on the Alazzurra.  Notably, there are a LOT of original components -- suspension, motor, brakes, wheels, tank.. but they look very different like this!

I do too, but I don't love the machinations needed to make the pipe lengths equal.

I've seen a similar looking setup except it was a 2:2.  You couldn't tell it was 2 cans from the side.
