Moto Guzzis are good reliable bikes. They are low-maintenance, and you can do just about everything on them yourself. They are also very good handling bikes.

Climbed under my Jimmy and dropped the drive shaft so I could replace the U-joints. Press those caps out and guess what fell all over the floor... Nope, not a single needle bearing, just a whole lot of rusty dust...
