        I got this
It is true what they say, Guzzis are like heroin, I was wishing I'd kept the old one about a week after I sold it, managed to resist for about 3 years though...

        I had a 750 Breva before, but I let it get salty wet once, and even though I washed it thoroughly as soon as I could, it just disintegrated into a ball of fur, so I tarted it up and got rid.
Part of the decision was it was a daily driver, and any spares or consumables have to be mail order as there isn't an agent for 40 miles. Now that I don't intend using it daily, and I won't go frantic if it is laid up for a month waiting for spares I traded the Harley in and got another.
Full of unnecessary electronics to go wrong, the centre stand is an expensive option, and there is no security whatsoever, but I still love it.
I had to get the special, as it has a rev counter.
In Italy, the typical rider is twenty something, with a match hanging out of the corner of their mouth and they can cope with a light coming on when the engine is about to explode, but I've spent years watching a rev counter, like the typical close to pension age UK rider.

A Honda 50 was state of the art, when I had my Cazenave moped, Andy. :laugh:
I progressed to a Tiger Cub. Also had a CZ 125 for six months, until I could get back on four wheels.
