What did you do in your garage today..?
- Thread starter Hack
- Start date
So do we get a review? Obviously B approved and it brings a new aspect to riding for you but are you still thinking it was a good choice?
Absolutely think it was a great move. Even with the huge learning curve and physical workout.
You can always check phototag.
I've always had a thing for Moto Guzzi's. The first bike I saw that made me want to ride was a 1977 Le Mans outside the Pickering flea market when I was 12. The look (perfectly red), the sound..maybe not the torture rack riding position at 58 with an arthritic knee but still.
I REALLY like that paint scheme (so does my wife!), and your extolling it's virtues regarding self-serve servicing has got those "I want it!" endorphins waking up.
I'm gonna find a nearby dealer and go for a look I think....
How difficult to find parts for it? Always loved the Guzzis
Yeah the Lemans was a good looking bike, if not comfy. Waaay back when they the SportBike Rally at Foley fairgrounds by Parry Sound two guys rode up from Missouri. Somewhere I have a pic of them get ready to make the 15+ hour ride home and in the background a sportbike is being loaded into a truck for the trip back to Toronto.
Go see Adam at Studio Cycle. He's a good guy, easy to deal with.
It depends on the part, of course. Oddball Guzzi parts can take a month or more. Sometimes one is better off to search the aftermarket; it's often faster and cheaper. In three and a half years, 40,000kms, I've never been stuck for a part.
That is gorgeous! I love your choice of Polish colours tooWhat model is that?
What model is that?
This model is the fabulous V85TT, introduced to the North American market in 2019 as a MY '20. Some refer to this paint scheme as the "Coast Guard". The more common white/yellow/red ones are known as the McDonald's Special.

Thanks but I’m all set for tool storage for now. Currently looking for some type of helmet and riding gear display/storage system. Might build one.@Hardwrkr13 need more garage storage? This fits your clean style. I just stumbled on it, no relation to seller.
