Title: Moto Guzzi

I had a go on a California III yesterday and must say, although rather heavy, once rolling was surprisingly nimble and the low down torque was phenomenal.  Much more fun than my friend's Harley.

I suspect it is rather like a bmw of which I've had a few, handling really very inpressive, especially considering the bike size.
I had a chap turn up today on a bmw based diesel bike, with trailer - even more inpressive was he came to pick up a 1.9tdi engine from our car (Seat Cordoba estate) which he wanted to replace the blown 1.9na d in his Dneipr motorcycle - bet that will go like stink as the car was no slouch. Made for an interestng day pulling the car appart and talking diesel power motorcycles.
