I want my pegs further back, but no relief there.

Consumer culture. READ the warranty. Ride it the year, THEN mod it. Piaggio would be nuts to warranty bikes that such wankers have twaddled with. It's part of growing up, junior....

Wouldn't an '03 have the 43mm hollow axle forks and better discs? audiomick, Were it mine, it would be worth a couple of letters or some internet sleuthing to contact the owners, for some PEACE of mind.

Lacking a crash, the later forks/brakes are actually a decent upgrade. Any way to trace ownership back and speak with the prior owners? That name or names might be in any paperwork which came with the bike.

Demographics. Their customer base is graying out. They'll soon need an Electra Glide hearse. -

Will the last Indian standing please make motorcycles? -
DeTomaso was an Angentine. The Guzzi link is becoming rather tenuous. OK, all 351s are two-valve, pushrod 90 Vs - so there is that.
