    I've always been curious to know how to move to such a lovely place? I'm assuming you live in the EU, so living there is not a legal issue,,,,,and are financially 'stable'??

    Spain has been hurt bad like everywhere else due to fraudulent bankers, but it is worth it for the mountains weather and the beer is still cheap. 34% of the population are not spanish, still plenty of folk with pots of money (probally bankers)

    What's the diving like there? Anything to see or has it been so touristed & fished out for so long [millenia] that there's nothing left to see but rocks & algae?

    not tried diving yet but will get back to you plenty dive centers snd plenty fish nice clean sea so guess it's okay, used to live on the red sea so diving will never be the same but i hear that it's pretty poor now compared with when i was there

  3. Having a guzzi clearout, 1975 S3 750 95% complete and restored needs tyres, crossover, seat recovered, tank painted

    Also Dingo cross 1970 complete and original including all paint, chrome bits could do with redoing,

    enough parts to build Guzzi 1000 tonti framed bike

    loads of other parts contact me with what you need, have lots of round barrel stuff including some le mans mk1 bits, also silver tank for 2001 V11 sport

  4. Those look like toys too me they certainly don't look like real motorcycles, how many times can guzzi recycle the V50! the cali looks stupid

  5. After founding the guzzi branch in Scotland in 1977 I too find most MGGB club members very cliquey been to a few events where they have been positivly rude don't have anything to do with the club anymore, the forum is full of anoraks

     

    Just looking at the list of your Guzzis shows your allegiance to the marque. There must be something wrong when people as committed to Guzzi as you are feel so alienated from the recognised national club?

    Yeah is a bit sad but it's the bikes I like not the club, never been much of a club member more in the Groucho Marx vein!

  7. well after owning a Scura for some years now a few observations, tyre choice likes nice soft ones, steering damper worth removing makes slow speed handling much better. Suspension set up crucial far too soft out of box, although the previous owner of mine had it set up too hard. I ride to work on a very tight road, lots of curves handling superb but you have to be on top of it at all times, better riden hard in speeds in excess of the legal limit. Had an intresting ride this year with a well sorted Buell was surprised at his inability to keep up, not the rider he is quite mad. Likes high octane fuel, improves with miles, lighter flywheel which improves Guzzi's of all ages, my V7 sport is still better than the later bikes due mostly to the lighter flywheel. Fab brakes on Scura makes you braver!
