Simple question by a wannabee Guzzista:
Why Moto Guzzi carries the aura of Exotism?
What are your thoughts on this?
Since I was a kid, back in the eighties, I was looking at Guzzis as obsolete but somehow exotic bikes.
Every now and then I was admiring a parked LeMans I and it always felt ... somehow... well exotic is the best word.
I even had the chance to briefly ride a (people's bike) V35 in '92. It felt like talking to a granny about electronic music but it still was a strange experience... this particular something....
The modern 8V models, eventhough aircooled, are pretty modern for me, so no granny thoughts about them.
And carry on with this aura of exotica in my eyes.
But why?
