Bang up to date… an analogue modern bike with shaft drive. As much as a twin to my R1150GSA as you could ever imagine, excellent build quality and real fun to ride. Highly recommended if a “out of the blue” in choice. A thoroughly modern, and stylishly elegant Moto Guzzi, which rides beautifully, cossets you in comfort, behaves like a normal motorcycle while retaining hints of what has made the marque legendary, and offers you the chance to do a bit of civilised off-roading without resorting to Dakar-style terror. Add the rich, lustrous paint and the feel of quality evident throughout the bike, and it’s impossible not to admire and indeed enjoy the TT in all its uniqueness.
