For real, prof ? Then, now you are a Guzzisto !
I put 3,500 miles on my GZ in a year. I don't feel like a biker - bikers ride bicycles or harleys. More like a motorcycle user.[/quote:25gp5g68]

I am surprised how easily the miles come on the Guzzi. Last Sunday's 160 mile ride was one I never wanted to end. I don't commute on it, since 4.5 miles is better done on bicycle for fitness and city traffic thickness.

Just for the fun of riding, that's what it's all about, right?
