moto guzzi MGS1

[fiery]

Butt Ugly? Maybe ... (beauty being in the eye of the beholder)

BUT IT IS going into production very soon, along with the "Griso" naked bike, both shown at Intermot. This is according to an interview with the president of the company that owns Guzzi / Aprilia / Laverda, in Australia's "Two Wheels" magazine recently.

Unless he's been misquoted (doubt it) it is only a matter of time before these bikes can be seen "in the flesh" at a Guzzi Dealer near you.

They have big plans for revitalising Guzzi.

Who'll be the first to report here after a test ride?

I bought a new Moto Guzzi Daytona 1000 in 95' which was the 4 valve motor with 95 HP and it was an incredible bike. I sold it to a friend of mine in 98' and he still has it and rides it. I wish I had it back. I always wanted the Daytona RS which was a 102 Hp version of the bike I had and a little lighter. The RS came out in 97 in very limited numbers.
Yes I am anxious to see this new one come out.

Butt Ugly !!!

This looks like the best thing Guzzi has ever put out.

As for the exhaust note, I am suspecting that it will be a real head turner (after you fit the aftermarket exhaust)
