Are there build numbers lurking somewhere, by color? Dumb question.... of course there are! but can they be found? I'm pitifully addicted to searching the 'guzzi for sale' and see mostly green ones, half as many silver, and rarely one in black. I would envision many years from now, the green being the most sought after color, because of the homage to the original. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(Except for those deeply "in-the-know" that respect the V11 designer's basis for the V11 Sport: the Gambalunghino . . . then it will be the Silver desired above all others. By at least one enthusiast . . . ) 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
