Yes I hankered after one of them too ... well the V7 first and then the Mark1.
Very low seat on those too.

A mate of mine, a dedicated Guzzi owner, had always lusted after a Le mans - till he got one!
He said it well deserved the alternative title of 'Lemon'.

I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but for me I'd rather have a Le Mans
Now that to me is a truely ugly thing, looks like it's made of lego, I'd take the Grisso over that.
Cut down the rear mudguard, loose the mirrors and add some higher level race cans and this would be a really nice posing bike.
