Stornello 385/1000. First time Guzzi owner. I bought it from a friend with 502 miles on it. A bit of a journey getting it here to Asheville. The seller wanted to make sure everything was 100 correct so he had it in for a full service. In the process, a valve cover bolt broke which ='d 3 weeks from Italy. Then I used HaulBikes for the first time. Very good loading process and pricing but because everything goes to a depot and delivery loads built from there, it's a long process. About 5 weeks from New Mexico to Asheville. This is the first <1L bike I've owned in 30 years. It's a blast! It feels like less than it's 400ish lbs. Plenty of power and I feel like I'm going back to my roots of motorcycling. For all of the concerns people express about the fueling, notchy shifting and so on, the bike has exceeded my expectations. My friend had upgraded the shocks, put crash bars on and he has Todd's fuel trim uninstalled but I've got the TFT. I'm anxious to instal the new fuel map as the weather gets warmer but don't have a PC. I'll figure that out later. The bike will live in Asheville and is perfect for so many of the fun rides here. A couple of pictures below including one with it's roommate, my R1200RT. Side note, the center jack I got is actually a decent piece of gear and was only $60. More to follow and I'll write up some of the many great day trips here in Western North Carolina.
