  1. I think the only AMA Vintage day I went to was on my W650..(about 5 yrs ago?) I may recall meeting you.. or at least another W650 rider.. You are not the only person with a humiliating picture of me in my pre-guzzi days. In fact, I'm quite proud of all the fact that if you look up "humiliating picture" in the dictionary.. you'll see a picture of me !! And that's not a dare.. if it really is a humiliating photo.. slip it into an envelope with the request for cash and mail it to Martin Barrett Department of Enforcing Things 345 Silly Rules Ave. Look the Other Way, Kent that ok w/ you Martin?
  2. great photos.. I can see the reflection of you taking the shot in the headlight chrome.. When I had my W650 (pre Guzzi) I used to love crossing the bay bridge in the early summer mornings catching the reflection of the bridge towers off the headlight bucket. distracting. but a neat visual.
  3. cool ! its soiled your driveway already !! just kidding.. congrats!! enjoy the ride
  4. na.. you're all wrong ! Chrissy !
  5. I ride to work.. 300 miles a week then ride for pleasure on the weekends.. Is there any other way !??
  6. October 7, 2005 Italy - Piaggio executives say the company's Moto Guzzi brand sold 4,550 motorcycles during the eight-month period from January through August, up from the 4,000 motorcycles retailed during the same period in 2004. However, sales in Italy accounted for 2,200 units. Company officials talked with reporters during the launch of the new Griso 1100 in Milan. "Our objective was selling 5,000 units in 2005 but now we think that we could sell as many as 6,000,� said Moto Guzzi CEO Daniele Bandiera. He said he expects the Griso to further increase brand awareness boosted by the company's Breva. Part �naked� bike and part cruiser, the shaft-driven Griso 1100 is powered by a V-twin. To be made available in black, red, yellow and blue, the bike is scheduled to be available in Europe in October at a cost of Euro 11,990 (approximately $14,700).
  7. FJR I've got the MG Bag on my V11 Sport, and it works well for me.. fits my thinkpad & a few odds 'n sods. When I ride the Tuono I just use the tankbag as a backpack. Cheers, Tim

    Looking for a V11

    Hi Welcome to the forum. For used try ebay, or www.craigslist.org.. Or the classified section here on the forum Cheers, Tim
  10. Lee That's a favourite sunday ride for me.. up 80 to Cherry Glen (pleasant valley) to 128 to some other road that heads south to 80.. Wood something or other.. then home. at the intersection of Pleasant Valley and 128 (or 121) you can head right (east) into Winters which is where the wildguzzi crowd have their 3rd sunday of the month breakfast... Regards, Tim
  11. What about Joan Collins?? talk about still going after all these miles.... front end doesn't have the rebound it used to I'm sure...
  12. BFG.. are magic mushrooms now in season in Ulster? Regards, Tim

  14. LMAO ! on the left its the sidestand.. (scraped a couple of mm away).. dunno about the right.
  15. Hey.. watch it mate.. Canada ain't that bad regardless of what you think about BC politics..!!
  16. You are correct Sir !! Don's in the middle, and the other two mooks are Marg and Charlie... Man, entertainment doesn't get much better than that....
  17. C'mon you BC boys, I know this trio is from the opposite coast but surely you've heard of them??? btw.. the family did the National Lampoon road trip from San Fran to Whistler a couple of weeks back.. It was so great to be in BC again.. Spent a wonderful week in Whistler and called in on a friend in West Van on the way back.. BC rocks !!!
  18. at their age I don't think "rush" is an appropriate adjective... "hobble" perhaps....
  19. My name's Tim and I'm Canadian.. For a "Quiz Canada" point, name the three people in the attached photo.. and no, they're not Shania Twain's parents.
  20. Dunno about the popping out.. but I always sneeze in pairs, which means my eyes are closed for too long.. kinda scary sometimes.
  21. LOL... good comparison. get a Sunbeam Tiger.. best of both worlds..
  22. nope.. found it http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0079137/
  23. search on Deathsport ... or Deathrace 2000... not sure he did a pre WW1 movie
  24. I'm 6'2"... Its funny switching from the Tuono to the Guzzi as the Guzzi really feels tiny in comparison. anyway, I think its a combination of my height and the perspective of the photo. Plus we all bought Guzzi's because they make us look huge right?
