Guzzi are sweet. Too pricey for my taste though. If you are taller than 5' 10" your knees will hit the engine (on the California, not sure about this one)

I know!  OSS and I saw them at one of the big M/C shows.  Your knees are pretty bent if you're tall.  Not many bike out there are built for tall riders.

Great looking bike except the front wheel. My neighbor just bought some sort of 2006 Guzzi. He has been working on it because it had been neglected.  Cool bikes though.

  I remember when (because of their huge, semi-exposed, fly-wheel)
                                                                                       they were referred to as the "Salami Slicer"  Wink

Im sure threre would be no heat thrown off by the cylinder in front of your leg.  Roll Eyes The rear has the v tail lights and there is alot of carbon fiber. They are pretty tight lipped about it as there is really not much info except for pics and a video.
