Travman, again I have to say you have a hardon for Moto Guzzi...
It's true I do have a hard on for Moto Guzzi.  I love the visual presence of the cylinders sticking out from the frame.  They make awesome cafe racers.  Too bad they are so rare here that I only see one on the road every couple of years and then it is probably some clapped out touring bike.  I'm constantly on the look out for the right one for sale. 

One more....

Love 'em.  The bike I've always meant to own but somehow never quite managed to find the right excuse.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Not Italian... definately not cool... and not mine either (but identical to one I once owned).. Looking at this pic I can still hear the ridiculous "Brrringg, bring, bring, bring" exhaust note.  Love the stock kick stand.....  [laugh].

Ah, those wacky East Germans.  Sehr lustig, Genosse  [thumbsup].

Love the pantah race conversions, although I would swap the 5-spoke FPS wheels for something a little more sturdy.  Those are 2.15" in the front and 2.5" in the back (90 and 100) and the wheels are pretty heavy.
