Well, it's a beautiful machine, to start with. I've only put 600 miles on it, and will pick it up tomorrow from Erico's following its first service. It's just fine at cruising the backroads, which is where I prefer to ride. I'm still following the engine break-in protocol, so I've not had the engine over 4,500 rpm. It corners easily on the curves up in the mountains. I have not gone off-pavement with it yet. It's not intended for blasting down the Interstate at 90 mph. And it has that Guzzi "character" and vibration from the 90-degree V-Twin. Quality of components seems very high. Hard-core ADV riders probably would not buy this bike. Motorcycle Guzzi calls it a retro enduro, whatever that means. Erico's says it has sold about a half-dozen and has taken a lot of calls about it. All in all, a sweet bike.
