I did it you guys.  I bought the Moto Guzzi Breva 1100.  I feel a little like I’m cheating on my wife.  At least it's with a nice Italian girl    ;~)   8)

Been a rough day though, I transferred the plate off of my V so I can reregister it with the original  yellow and blue NY plate.  So for the first time in 22 years it's off the road.  :(

I get it tomorrow and of course the forecast calls for rain.

This thing is so much like the V that it's amazing how at home I was riding it.

Will keep my Vision till the day I die though - so back off!  :D

Don't think ill of me I still love my Vision as much as ever!

Ciao for now,

JV

yea I got the bags.  They had to order them from Italy so I won't have them for a week to two years.  I don't think that Guzzi is that attentive to their dealers.

That right gootZ!  you got it.

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming HOOOOYA lets go again baby !!!!!!

'82 Vision, Pearl Orange finish, lots of up-grades!!!

Hey Congratulations Joe! You will have to get a licence plate that says "My Other Bike Is A Vision" That's a pretty good pair, I'd day.

Hope ya get her broken in this fall,

Great bike, JV!  Too bad those Italians couldn't remember which direction the V is supposed to go.   ;)

Congrats on the acquisition.  May it give you (almost) as much pleasure as your V!

If you have an accident on a motorcycle, it's always your fault. Tough call, but it has to be that way. You're in the right, and dead -on a bike. The principle is not to have any accident. If you're involved in an an accident, it's because you did not anticipate. Then, by default, you failed.

Thanks C C !  Don't worry Tiger I Definitely will bring the V.  All I have to do is get a trailer set up for my  Guzzi and pull the V along!   ;D

h2o they put the V that way so they could put an alternator in!!

NOOO moore stator, nooo mooore stator.  I am going to put an air conditioner and a refrigerator on the bike.

You've still got a stator, in your fancy new alternator on that fancy new Guzzi.

Cheers!
