    A special thanks to Bill Hagan

    What a fantastic and refreshing outlook on life. Todd and Bill both. Breath of fresh air, it is. Don't kid yourself folks...Bill is unnecessarily modest. He won't leave you behind if you ride with him...but it'll most likely be because he doesn't want to. He's a fine rider - swift and...

    A special thanks to Bill Hagan

    I rode my first Moto Guzzis today at the invitation of Bill Hagan. To let a stranger from the Internet ride those beauties was an unselfish act of courage, for sure. It was an absolute pleasure meeting Bill, and I can't say thanks enough. And he wouldn't even let me buy him a steak or a beer...

    What does a Griso compare with...in riding position?

    Great info - and a huge thanks to all. It really is greatly appreciated.

    What does a Griso compare with...in riding position?

    What a great offer, Bill. And at 260 miles away, you're about 400 closer than the next closest one I could find. :laugh: I may just take you up on that, and I'll PM you if it works out. As an aside, you have a really cool stable of bikes listed. If you could only keep one of those, which...

    What does a Griso compare with...in riding position?

    I'm on the hunt for an 8V Griso, and feel like a bit of a lunatic. I've never in my life been on a search for a bike based solely on magazine reviews and pictures...and yet I find myself doing that very thing right now. There are no Grisos anywhere close to me that I can find to sit on, let...

    Yes I agree - you can't use a direct currency conversion to extrapolate a US price. I mentioned that only as a point of reference. MSRP in the UK equates to $25K....in the UK. But in my opinion, using the UK price as a guesstimate, it's highly unlikely the bike will be priced less than 20...

    Rode it today

    Brian, while I have no experience with the previous Calis, I'm certain you are correct. And feet-forward riding certainly isn't for me. I've never owned a cruiser. Maybe it was just the angle of the pics, and Pete will shed some light on the legroom for highway pegs, but it appears that the...

    Rode it today

    Ahhh...great pics, Pete! Definitely looking forward to your ride report. I'll have to admit, the first pics of it had me thinking it was a size or two smaller (dimensionally, if not weight-wise) than, say, a Road King. Looks like I was way off. Great ergos for a cruiser, it appears, but I...

    Griso spoke wheels...opinions?

    I'm really just interested in points-of-view about the SE spoked wheels on the Griso Tenni and Black Devil (and, I guess, Stelvio). Both Griso models are out of my price range - even used - so I'm in no danger of buying one, but I'm still curious about them. If I WERE in the market, as much...

    Griso Headlight Bucket Replacement?

    Moto510 - that LED install looks great! Did you have to add resistance to the headlight circuit, or is there no warning light or anything that would require the power to be balanced? Just familiarizing myself with Grisos, so bear with me. :lol:

    Anyone still happy with their G11?

    You know, there are some really good perspectives here, and well stated - all of them. I very much appreciate the insight, as every one of you has more experience with the Marque than I. From my short association with Guzzi on the internet, as well as a (very) few Guzzi pilots I've met on the...

    I hear it all the time BMW,s are better!!!!!

    I've owned three BMWs....a 1200GSA, a K1200S, and a K1300S. The only problem I had - with 60,000 miles among them - was a clutch slave cylinder on the GSA...and the bike had 2500 miles on it at the time. It went in Missoula, MT on a long tour. Stopped at two dealers on the long...

    Any members here from Houston?

    Would you mind shooting the new guy (me :geek: ) a PM? There's a Griso 8v there I'm considering, and I'd sure love to have someone local lay some eyes on it. Certainly be willing to pay for your time in currency - either US certified or of the frosty beverage variety. Really appreciate any...

    Anyone still happy with their G11?

    Very much appreciate the opinions. It's really a matter of convincing myself I can ride the 1100 indefinitely without longing for 'a little bit more" - which is, I think, a difficulty for many motorcyclists...always looking for the next thing. (Probably a commentary on today's society in there...

    John - many thanks. I had never seen the mgnoc site.

    Anyone still happy with their G11?

    New around these parts, but I've been riding for a long time. Recently, with two kids driving (and approaching college :blink: ), and a third nearing driving age, it became time to scale back for financial sanity. Personal sanity, however, is now in question, as I've been bikeless for...
