Dunno if that'll be the same engine if they make it, though. The GS went over to a partially liquid-cooled design(likely for Euro3 or whatever their emissions test is) and now the intake comes from the top, and exhaust from the bottom.

Awwwww yiss. Get to assemble and ride this tomorrow. /poo poo cellphone pic:  Hondas have a slight olive oil smell from the crate. KTMs smell of Ikea; must be the similar build quality. DefaultPeanut fucked around with this message at 08:13 on Mar 22, 2013 |

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c-HAkqw4UcY Good reflexes! The driver should be dragged from his car and beaten. Upon watching it a few times I think he was trying to go around the skaters on a blind turn. hydrixel fucked around with this message at 08:41 on Mar 22, 2013 |

That video was up a little while ago, the car driver was actually filming his friends and thought he was top poo poo and that the biker was in the wrong. e: There's a video from inside the car as well that lets you hear the driver.

The latest bike on BikeEXIF is very well done I'm not much of a cafe racer fan but the fit and finish on this bike is pretty astounding. Pillion pegs and proper tyres are the icing on the cake.

Really want a Griso. Don't like the 2:1 exhaust, especially with the pipe crossing in front like that. If ever a layout begged for 2:2, or even 2:1 but with the union under the engine or under the seat, it's the transverse V.

While we're posting Guzzi's this one has been down the street from me and on CL for a few weeks and I've been tempted to call the guy to check it out even tho I'm not buying. I'm not going to waste his time but I'd still like to see it. http://cincinnati.craigslist.org/mcy/3676078508.html

If it was £1000 cheaper I'd be really seriously looking at the Racer (the one I posted above) but it's a bit hard to justify losing almost half the horsepower to other bikes in that sort of price range, even before you put in all that special Guzzi character (and, as I like to point out, I've owned 3 Aprilias and a Laverda, so my tolerance for character is pretty loving high)

I even have a garage now to protect it from the lovely weather, so I'm that much closer to the temptation, but yeah the price tag is just not helping things. One day I'll have one though, and park it next to an MV Agusta Brutale 750 and then my life will be complete.
