Van Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 Hi all, HOW MANY TENNI'S PRODUCED ?? Good question <_ l was told by my dealer src="%7B___base_url___%7D/uploads/emoticons/default_homer.gif" alt=":homer:"> ) l was told by MG USA 150, l've been in touch with # 165 who told me that the production was 150 and then increased to 165, and now our friend in ltaly tells me 170!!!! So l figure that 165-170 IS the number,.........a pretty exclusive production run don't ya think?? l will be posting the list of Tenni owners l've found so far this evening, ( that work thing getting in the way of my more serious pursuits ) Cheers, Van ps. This is GREAT to have a spot just about Tenni's , on this fantastic forum, again, thanks Jaap.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

callison Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 You want exclusive? MGNA created two specialty V11 Sports in 2001, the CF and the TT. 15 of each. Not too big a deal really. The TT is basically a silver V11 Sport with a black tank and seat cowl and the CF had a bunch of carbon fiber bits but I don't recall what the paint scheme was. MG is really kind of good at this game. 32 blue Sport 1100's. 200 Sport Corsas and so forth. The Guzzidom analog of a Dodge Daytona or Charger or whatever. At least the Tenni's are readily identifiable as such. So are the Scuras, Corsa Rosso, Corsa Negro, Rosso Mandello. Just enough different to qualify as unique without departing too far from the norm. As if any Guzzi would be in the norm compared to far eastern iron or even the Teutonic showboats. Makes you wonder why anyone with an American two wheeled Wurlitzer Barco lounger would consider themselves and their bikes "unique" when they're producing literally hundreds of thousands of them each year.

Van Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 callison! Greatings friend!! nice to see that there are Guzzists that understand!! ln spite of the feud between the Tenni's and the Scura's (they are so desperate for attention) you are absolutelly 100% freek'n right on!! All V11's are very special!! l share your view of the two wheeled Winnibago's and the Harley bad boys.....sigh, we can only feel sorry for them Cheers Van Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt he'd even remember something like that.I wouldn't mind watchin some of those old old races. 68478[/snapback] Hi DeBenGuzzi !! welcome to the Tenni side of the street! The Tenni was produced as a tribute to Moto Guzzi's most famous racer from their glory days. The mans name was "Omobono Tenni", nicknamed "Bonomin" ("Good Man") and was, amoung other very impressive things, the first ltalian to win at the lsle of Man. The unique paint scheme is a modern representation of the great racers of the past. Green fairings, alloy (silver) tanks, the white number plate rondel, and the famous suede seat. lf l wasn't such an idiot on the computer l'd add a pic of one of the old racers with the "dustbin" fairing for your viewing pleasure... (The painting l did that l use on the Tenni Registry uses a representation of the old style Guzzi racers in the background) Try Duke video for some great old racer movies, and they even have one showing one of the 2 running MG V-8 racers doing a parade lap at the lsle of Man some years ago (and the poor rider stuffing it into the haybayles) !!
