That Guzzi looks like the BMW HP Enduro<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
The 1150GS is beautiful... In an ugly kind of way This new Guzzi looks good from the side but I wonder what the front end is like?
And... the ugliest bike ever must have been the MZ ET250!
Maybe we should do a pole to see what we think is the ugliest bike ever?
The fundamental cause of trouble in the world today is that the stupid are cocksure while the intelligent are full of doubt.
