Well,, its sure a sexy thing,, My beef with the Guzzi was the pegs were so close to the seat I felt like a jockey on a race horse. Otherwise, I liked riding it, but I did have a real close call with it in a curve. I had a centerstand added to the Nevada & I was in a right turn & either that thing got down & jacked the rear end off the road a little or I got on the pipe, I never found out exactly, but we got waaaay squirrely there for
a second. Thot I was goin down for sure, IN the long run, didnt matter, stuffed it into the side of a pickup.. [/quote]

Ouch!  Same thing happened on my R75...ground some off the rear brake lever and the solid mounted foot peg...gets your attention right quick!  With Guzzi's, you either love 'em or you hate 'em. Not much middle ground. The Nevada did have limited cornering clearance and funky peg location

Hard to believe no one mentioned Suzuki's Water Buffalo. Or Honda's CBX.
