Moto Guzzi is going to make a Scrambler and a new California model.  These were shown at their dealer conference in Monte Carlo yesterday.  I'm digging the scrambler.

a little depressing to see "PIAGGIO" behind the Guzzis...

Bet that pipe is loud! waytogo Interesting exhaust heat guard on the right side of the front cylinder's pipe. And Josh is right, puzzling tire combo. Still, damn neat looking custom. applause

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

Crazy loud. It's the same set-up I had on my Multi rebuild. I ended up ditching the full system headers and replacing the stock udder to cut down on the noise.  Tongue

I read the writeup on that bike. the front is race rains. the rear BST rim is the wrong size and no race rains are available in that size.
