Back when I was racing (FZR 400) I had a good friend with an exotically-modified Guzzi 850 LeMans. Beautiful machine. It kept growing through the years - 850cc, 900cc, 1000cc... but he eventually went too far and blew it up :( Now he has a Kawasaki Z750. Even he admits it's a much better bike from a functional standpoint, but the Guzzi was beautiful and unique... Now another friend had an old (early 60's I think) Guzzi that was without question the ugliest bike I've ever seen. When he took it in for state inspection, the service manager of the shop (another roadracing buddy) said "Man, you're lucky I can't fail a bike for being ugly." But it was so ugly it was cool in a way. Would have been a great bike for cruising and picking up girls (well, *some* kinds girls, anyway!) -- Mark Roberts Photography and writing www.robertstech.com
