Thanks Mike, top of the list now. Congrats and happy new year! Is it completely stock?
 
Chillin' out in the parking lot at work after the 2am commute at 26°. Granted the hand guards are hideous, but they were free, and look a helluva lot better than Clorox bottles, IMHO.

If you spend much time riding in the frost try some handle bar muffs, I commuted 80miles a day for 4 years before I discovered the benefit ...all that pain I could have missed out on

Oh yes it has. It was probably 20 years ago I rode it the first time. A lot looks similar but several new shops and a few housing developments. Plus way more traffic as everybody (self included) wants to say they rode/drove The Dragon. My photo is the California on The Dragon. As a side note the lady friend wanted to see it and we were taking my 1972 Suzuki TS90 down to Barber as a pit bike so we stopped at the store and rode it both ways 2-up on the 90. It started sprinkling just for a short while and part way back we passed a Harley dresser as he was kind enough to pull over when we caught up to him.

Thanks for posting the info and pic! Congrats and welcome to the GT Familigia and Guzzi Owners. I have many great memories riding the smokies, sure it will be a very memorable moment in time for you, as soon you'll find yourself with a garage-full of Guzzi. Welcome aboard.
 
1200 Sport 4V
ZGULPR007CM111572
Purchased 9 Feb. 2015
Christchurch, New Zealand

Bought the bike as a ex demo with 250km on the clock, 200 of which were mine. Now with over 5,000km on her. Great bike, nice relaxing ride and always brings a smile.

Have one issue though - the rubbish suspension, currently investigating options.


A couple of photos from a trip to Central Otago...

Mista 64, are you referring to the front end or rear end suspension ? I used to find the front end a bit doughy as the level of adjustment is limited at best. The factory fork oil is 7.5 viscosity so I changed it to 10 viscosity which made a difference without causing it to buck at undulations in the road. The problem is of course having to remove the forks to drain the oil. Quite a process. The back end took a while to sort out the correct settings for my weight and the required further adjustment when putting my partner on the back. BY way of example, I'm 80 kg and while solo, 9-10 clicks from zero. Add the lady who is 57 kg and add another 25 clicks which avoids that floating sensation yet preserves the spine.

I must have one of the good ones... after having a Todd re-flash and an airbox lid before she was 600miles old, she hasn't missed a beat.
This is one bike that will stay with me.
