most here are pretty skeptical. It looks like they've improved the breathing, lightened the internals, and raised the revs another 1k. Given all that, who knows?

oh lord.............I think I might want a Suzuki.

80 HP at 7750 RPMs. They're making power by revving it. So better breathing and less friction and rotating mass.

I am using $5 Harbor Freight trickle chargers on my bikes. I've been on vacation the last 10 days and I took the Greenie for a ride today after it's been sitting at least 2 1/2 weeks and boy it started quick. Ran the EV yesterday and it spun right off too.

Harper's and MG Cycle come to mind.

The little Chinese LED isn't a huge upgrade from the 55wt, it doesn't seem as bright as a 100wt H4 IMO. agree with Docc that high beam doesn't seem to do it. It's still a little better than the stock 55wt and doesn't suck down the alternator.

A three car garage isn't big enough either and I only have three motorcycles.

8V? There's always a Griso, Don has a last model black one with no miles.

I wanted to pass on an update. Don has gotten his first shipment of new Guzzis in stock. He'll begin selling them in December. Right now he's a Guzzi-only franchise but it's my understanding that he can procure parts and perform service on Aprilia and Vespa. He has about a dozen bikes in house, mostly small-blocks with three 1400s and a Griso. I wish him good luck.

Thanks Docc. 12mm or 1/2 in. Man, I never guessed it was so big. I found one from Ali Express. First the LED headlight and now this fuel connector. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/12mm-OD-Barbs-Brass-Fuel-Line-Gas-Hose-Quick-Disconnect-Coupler-marine-pipe-fitting-for-boat/32706898383.html

Oh Blinding Light...Oh Light That Blinds...I Cannot See...Look Out For Me!

Scud, would you know if this is about the same as 5/16 line? The reason I ask, is that I'd like to install a quick-disconnect and want to know if this will work Thanks. https://www.beemerboneyard.com/cpcqkdiscon1.html

I've got that record stashed somewhere. I know why Rick and Levon did most of the singing ....

The Sport is a timeless classic and looks great in any color.

pretty dumb to show a "sport bike" with a V7 motor. I am guessing that the V85 engine might be in short supply. Still, this motorcycle company is just plain nuts. Hopefully, Guzzi will build a sporty bike and perhaps sport tourer 1400 some day. But I am 64, so I ain't a-goin' a wait on 'em.

ahhh, stay away from the fancy stuff and have a Pabst. You'll love it.

I've killed three of them under the valve covers on my two Guzzis. No doubt it's an installer's problems since I've killed plenty of paper valve cover gaskets too.

yep, the front lever light needs to be adjusted on occasion. Just another reason I don't want to screw with the foot brake.

OK Leroy. Works for me.

Actually the rear brake light is of minimal importance. I mean, if you are stopping, you'll certainly use the front. I don't even want to check if my foot brake activates the brake light, just something else to get anal about. Like all I want to think about is something else on these bikes.

So how is the weekend of 17 May? feedback appreciated.

I see that Cycle Gear has a special on Angels. Unfortunately, standard sizes are listed, But one might ask about 170 size.

The Sport is such a beast to push around, at least for 5'10" me. Handles so nice when riding it. By comparison, the EV is really easy to push around. Get well soon.
