Fun. Congrats and welcome to the GT Forum, and back to the Guzzi Famigila. Love to get your info on our Registry linked below, and if you still have the info on the Griso, that one is HERE. I'm sure warm weather won't come quick enough having a new bike in the garage. Hope to see you here often. Enjoy/cheers.

 
Hello Neighbor! We could toss stones at each other.

My best friend and I ride together as much as we can but I always like new riding mates. I’ll send you my contact info via Private Conversation if you might be interested once we get through this god awful weather!

Congratulations and Welcome!

While waiting for warmer weather I'm planning my six motorcycle trips for this year.
Hope to see you on the road.

Only six? Shameful. :giggle:

Seriously, if ever this way -- the Moto Grappa at the top of Virginia -- stop in.

I sold my Griso last summer at about same time I bought my Oreo Guard.

I had originally found the "Jurassic Park beak" look off-putting, and had intended to get a V100. For lots of reasons -- almost all serendipitous -- I found myself with the V85 and am so glad I did.

In fact, the V85 is my favorite motorcycle ... so far, :giggle:

Seriously, while hardly a GXR liter bike, it is one of those rare machines that will do most everything else quite well, and, especially, in the critical smiles per mile category.

Best wishes,

Bill

P.S. Apropos trips, consider adding the "Mutton Run" to your moto-dance card. I do this twice a year -- May and September -- for sentimental and "great ride" reasons. Here's a slideshow that also includes Scott, a fixture here: Mutton Run September 2023 Hover cursor over pix for captions.
