• NOTICE: The owner of this website and GTMotoCycles.com completely lost his home on the morning of January 8th in the L.A. Wildfire Storm. Most of his neighborhood is gone, and a few friends were killed along with their pets. The GTM SHOP and STORE are functioning normally, but we DEMAND EXTREME PATIENCE on orders as we are a SMALL business and Todd usually has his hands on nearly every order before it goes out. You can find more info on a post named L.A. Wildfires in the USA section. Our heart and best go out to everyone effected in this horrific disaster.

L.A. Wildfires

well I've donated of course, to both, but I'd love to buy something as well... problem is, I have the whole GTM catalog on my bike!

my next bike will either be a V85 or a new Stelvio, but only if GTM is still operating. without Todd to email for support, I wouldn't buy a fuel-injected Guzzi.
 
Thanks again to all. Donations are slowly but steadily trickling in. I am trying to thank each one, but I'm still overwhelmed with daily requests/demands both for my home and customers. Every $ is MUCH appreciated, via the site here and/or GoFundMe. I have no idea as to when I can even begin to start the reassembly process, but every day adds a long list of to-do items to simply get things cleared as to insurance hurdles, which I have yet to receive even a penny from. Every day brings a gut-punch to one more thing that I remember is now gone. A big one is a large outdoor illuminated Guzzi sign bought from a local defunct dealer. Not even a trace of it left.
 
I am sorry, Todd. I am sure it is gut wrenching.
I keep looking for the dreadful post that says you're shutting down the Forum.
It's a b*itch to keep the faith right now. More power to you for hanging in there.
 
Thanks again for the slow trickle of donations.
Perhaps buy a shirt or two from the Store linked below if you can't bring yourself to throw a few $'s my way without getting something in return. It's looking like I will be winding my shop down, and only taking on current/private clients who appreciate my work. More as I have it.

I found a few items to order from the store. I hope you can find a way to keep the store and forum going. I have learned so much from this forum since joining in 2021 so I want to say THANK YOU. I am truly sorry for your loss and can only guess how busy you are dealing with insurance and physical clean up of the site. I wish there were more I could do to help beyond contributions to this site.
 
So sorry for your loss. Just no words for this. I bought something from the store I really don't need right now so take your time with it. Every little bit helps, right? Kicked in to the GoFundMe too. Best wishes for life getting back to normal as soon as possible. Hang in there.

Well said, GerryAZ!
I just bought a spare brake lever for my 1400 and a spare fuel filter with clamps. Ever see a bike with a broken brake lever? That's why. Ounce of prevention. If there was a clutch lever I would snag that, too. You never know.
 
Relative newcomer here but I did make a donation via the forum recently and I just ordered the PC-6/AT300/GTM 5AM/7SM ECU Flash fit for my 2020 Cali 1400 Touring. I know I will benefit greatly but I hope Todd will in some small way also by this purchase. I hope others here will kick in with donations or purchases as well. Not just to preserve this great asset to the Guzzi family but to also help a fellow human in need. Thanks to Todd who even as a newcomer to this forum I can see has been and is instrumental to our enjoyment of the Moto Guzzi line of bikes.
 
So sorry to read about this . I'll keeo you in my thoughts and prayers 🙏🙏🙏

12 months ago I was at a Speedway meeting & recieved urgent calls to go home ( 2 hours away )
My farm machineery shed / workshop had burnt down . Not nearly as bad as loosing your house.
Although still deverstating to me. About A$ 400,000 - Tractotors , 4 Wheelers . Tools [ dad's, Granddads ] & many that can never be replaced including Sprintcar tools , Antique furniture & memorabilia . Like you grosly underinsured.

Still trying to recover finacially & mentally. Thats the worst mentally .
So take care of you & yours. Reach out if you have to. I have

I suppose a couple of good things about my fire. No one was hurt . All the good cars & my Guzzi were in another shed. And it missed my house. Lucky , I think , it was pooring with rain at the time

Take care
Gary
