They are so easy to work on that I put off small repairs with a quick fix.
When I do have to fix it everything costs $300.00
If I had fixed it when she first told me she wasn't feeling well it would have cost $100.00
Parts are still available so I keep on riding.
I'm so used to her that I am afraid to try anything new.
I feel inadequate because she can perform better than I can ride.
It takes a long time to go from the parking lot to the restaurant door.
When weekend warriors fail to be properly amazed at a 38 year old bike.
Many think her ugly but I see her beauty.
I love my Guzzi.

I hate Guzzi's too!
My wife gave me permanent leave of absence 9 years ago, I sometimes feel a little lonely but life is good.

I have tried a Guzziless life a few times now but women and Ducati's or anything else with wheels can only provide at best, a temporary distraction. Then the heart yearns for my one true love.

Since my first Le Mans I believe the first service came with a secret medical transplant, I have Mandello Marrow in my bones now. :)

I am convinced Bella will accompany me to the grave. In about 30 years ...................................... I hope.
