Five Favorite Production Motorcycles of all time Numver 5: Moto Guzzi V7 Sport. (ahem... the original one)
This one is more emotional than logical. It's a big, long, heavy, moderately powered bike. But my oh my does it "speak" to me. The sound and the style... Yep that's number five. But I'll have more honorable mentions over the next few days and I'll probably put together an "anything goes" list here in a few days or so (as opposed to production bikes only) so stay tuned.
Olivier Chartron sends in this spectacular photo for the wanderlust series of his "Guzzi Jackal in France in the beautiful place named Vercors."
Outstanding!
Chalopy has been knocking it out of the park lately and he has one post in particular that is LOADED with great vintage pictures!!
This is a very small taste
Some very nice modern touches. Somehow they manage not to overpower the rest of the bike. Found it over on ADV Rider Cafe Racer Thread.
sorry for that.. it was just a pun waiting to happen... I do like the pic though.. From ADV rider.
Awesome resurrection of 1973 Moto Guzzi. El Dorado. For the full story see this thread over on ADV Rider.

I received an e-mail in response to this post (2 posts down) from the builder to inform me... Well here's what he wrote:
Wow! Thanks Very Much for the Information, the Picture and the Link to your Guzzi forum thread. Fantastic!
Another stunning Guzzi...maybe I'm an addict? I don't know. Maybe I should check with Tiger Woods.
Axel from Hamburg Germany has sent in a nearly perfect pair of Moto Guzzi. A cafe and a racebike.
