Old Spada in Brigg…
Loads of em at Cassington…
That's what I meant, the ones who go in for dangerous driving. Although the bike could be anything TBH, but can't be a coincidence most I have seen doing it are on high performance Jap multi's. Not a new problem of course.
The issue wasn’t with the type of bike or the type of rider, it was the use of the word ‘****er’ applied to people you’ve never met in your life. Give them the benefit of the doubt, chances are they’ll be much less judgemental…
To be honest folks I think this sub thread has now ran it’s course.

Ooh - I saw one, today - A Le Mans Mk1, at the Whittlesford Service Station on the A505 near Duxford.No doubt he will be reporting seeing a Breva in the McDonald’s car park, very soon…
Orange Griso A442 between bridgnorth and telford, parked on a layby with few other bikes between 3 and 4 pm…
The bloke who nearly had me off my Guzzi last year (WITH girlfriend / partner on the pillion!!) cos he thought a roundabout should be his own personal race-track style chicane with no regard whatsoever that other vehicles might want to be using it at the same time, was a grade 1 gold-plated ****er. And I would have told him that to his face. Literally missed my front wheel by inches. Bet the girlfriend gave him a bollocking about it too. So sorry if I seem biased. Also he was one of several like-minded on that particular day on that particular road. OK end of rant.

Red 750 Breva on the Taverners run and then spotted another Spada on the way home in East Goscote.
Two in one day in separate sightings. I’m afraid I haven’t been specifically interested in Guzzis for long enough to recognise all the models so:
A big shiny red one just north of Thornbury in Gloucestershire. We passed him in the car as he was at the side of the road and half an hour later we were on the bike (BMW) and he was still there so we stopped to check he was OK. He’d topped up the oil, left the oil filler cap/dipstick in the garage by mistake and gone for a ride. Fortunately the bike seemed OK and he’d managed to get some oil (and presumably the filler cap) delivered to him at the side of the road.
Then later, on the A46 just east of Junction 9 of the M5 we saw an older red Guzzi with a bikini fairing, heading west.
Saw a red V50 Monza south of Totton,Hants on A326 this morning. On the way to Beaulieu auto jumble perhaps?
A veritable Guz fest at Compton Abbas airfield Italian day today.

Saw a Grey Breva BB on a driveway, Kettlewell way. £3,500.
Griso in the top car park at Cromer yesterday(Sunday 18th). Was on 1200 Sport with the missus on her Ducati, but could not park nearby. Went for fish and chips, lovely.
A Black and Grey Cali 1100i followed me all the way from North Shields to Barrow in Furness today,mind you it was on the trailer I was towing,just bought it of a Norteastern Branch Member!
Norge waiting at Folkestone Eurotunnel last Friday about 8.00 am. Did not see another Guzzi over whole weekend and 650 miles in Normandy and there were bikes everywhere! Stelvio did not miss a beat fully loaded with wife and luggage.
Saw a black 1100 sport trundling along the A530 between Crewe & Middlewich on Wednesday (21/05/14) afternoon around 3.30pm. Looked & sounded really good.
heard a nice white griso in cheltenham today
Norge or possibly Stelvio passed me on the A1. I was on the loan V7 tryingto work out if it had enough petrol. My first Guzzi to Guzzi sighting and iI almost missed it.
Does the hand signal the rider used apply to any V-twin?
