I have a Guzzi dealer at the bottom of the road and I pop in now and again.
Despite having a on the whole negative experience of 15 years of Guzzi ownership I still realy like them. I think the post Aprilia development effort models look a quality product. I've ridden the 8V Stelvio but if I were to change the Falco any time soon then the Grizzo whould be the "heart" purchace.

I'd have one over any kwak any day :smt002

If it comes up trumps BG, just thinking :smt017
I've never seen a Guzzi trike.

I have, Guzzi California, and very nice it was too! Even the owner reckoned it looked better as a trike than it did as a bike.



BTW I didn't win.

Yeh, but that's not as bad if you've already had one. :smt001
Better luck next week (or Saturday).

Is it only me that doesn't like the Grisso? The V11 looks much nicer I think, and the MGS-01 is sex on a stick.

I'll not argue about the MGS-01 well maybe the "on a stick" bit. I'm not likely to see one in the flesh let alone own one. I 've always like the Daytona and the similarly styled V11 but as sport bikes dynamicaly, I don't think they match the Aprilias. As a less intense machine for every day use and heaven forbid a style accessory, then Grizzo looks competent and unique.

Tim, I'm sure Kawasaki have earn't their brand loyalty. I've owned two and didn't find them bad bikes but to the best of my knowledge they don't make a bike I'd lust after.

Ive looked and looked and loooooked at that bike, all I see is a foursome between a Suzuki Bandit, A Ducati Monster a Ford Escort gearbox and a very very startled air compressor..

:smt017

I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but for me I'd rather have a Le Mans (one of my favourite bikes as a kid, until the Ninja burst onto the scene in '84)

..which the GPz seems to have taken some styling cues from.
