Simple and beautiful
« on: March 11, 2012, 07:38:10 pm »


I've been looking at a Moto Guzzi V7 for a summer tourer and in my searches came across this beauty. I know there are some bikers on here with bang up to date machinery but could anything look more desirable? What d'you think?
I can't stop looking at it!

Regards,

John

Agree. A nice looking bike. I think the retro look goes very well when mixed with modern technology. I got a photo of a bike the autosport show which was of a similar type. Just liked the look. Will post a pic if the OP doesn't mind.

My next bike would be a cafe for sure.  :happy2:

They are Über Kool  :drool: :drool: :drool:

I think, like you say, the simplicity is just amazing.

If I lived in a warmer dryer climate, I'd hardly ever drive a car.



I love the Italian style of the Ducati  :love:




...or the little Harley 883 Sportsters can be made to look good (like the deus racer)




Also I'm really loving the little Solus Yamaha In the vid below :notworthy: (awesome short film)
