MG USA Site
Looks like Moto Guzzi's U.S. site hasn't been updated in about 18 months... doesn't even show the regular V7 Classic (which has been available for months) much less this Cafe Classic. Love their long-term commitment to this market.

MGs good looking?

Its her ugly sister GT 1000 that competes in the same class with MGs as far as the looks are concerned. They are biking world's Roseanne Barrs doing mudwrestling. - cruiz-euro |

Gigantic impact of Moto Guzzis in the early 70s

If my memory serves me right CB 750 came to Finland -69 and did 2 mark. It wouldn't be too far fetched to claim it was mass produced. -cruiz-euro |

I'm sorry but you appear to have gone blind as well as insane. Any Moto Guzzi put's Ducati to shame in the looks dept. granted performance wise Ducati has the edge but with the possible exception of the ST2 they are uniformly dull and miss-proportioned. MotoGuzzi on the other hand from the drop dead gorgeous Copa Italia to the Stelvio and Norge` are some of the most beautiful works of art ever to roll on two wheels. I'd have a garage full if I could but I'm simply not worthy and must content myself with buying a new Harley every few years... YouTube - Stelvio Motoguzzi

Two comments.....suggested US MSRP? And where the hell's the side view picture so we can admire the good looks the author is gushing over? Other than that, good article. Ive been considering adding a "backroads cruiser" to the garage once i finish culling my vintage junk bike "collection". This bike joins the XR1200 and the Triumph scrambler and supplants the Classic V7 on my short list.

I say again. This bike is not on the Moto Guzzi US website. It's not for sale here.

MG's PR rep just got back to me to say there are no plans to import this model for '09. We may see it announced later in the year as a 2010 model, but that's my guess and nothing official.
