I'm with you. It's the reasonably priced thread, and it's reasonable, so it fits here, but... if I had $1800 to put towards a bike, I would pass on this one too.

The VFR's are solid rides but they fit the niche of the Toyoda Corolla of motorcycles.
Great bike but with the soul of an appliance.

Two red flags for me: First, ad is 22 weeks old. Second, stored is fine, stored in a field with tall grass and plants underneath is not. If it's actually still available and not just a forgotten ad, I would take a VERY close look at the frame underneath to make sure it isn't full of rust.

1979 CB400 cafe racer $500.
It's been a long time since I sent a message...no response at all and no indication the seller even read my message.
Plus it's about 1/2 price of anything comparable.
I've seen 6x12 trailers for lower prices than 5x10 or 5x8 trailers.
5x8 is my preferred, 5x10 is next. 6x12 is huge (friend has one) and I wouldn't want that (unless it's a stupid deal).

Looking for a clean one. From the mods this doesn’t look like it.
Bulletproof bikes but it all depends on who owned it and worked on it.

Not on FB and when I tried to register to see this ad they asked for a 360 face video to complete registration.

Moro Guzzi and April’s must be right up there as well, I figure. Just abominable maintenance cycles…

And looks stock still. Somebody snap that rare old gal up and keep it for another 30 years…

Sexiest car they ever made, after the Bug and Kharmann-Ghia, IMHO. Owned a lot of VWs over the years but the Corrado is the one that got away…

I’ve owned 6 of them - all but one had over 200k. At least 2 hit 300.
It sounds as if you've never owned a Guzzi before. Yes, depreciation is high, but I'm in it for the long haul. My V85TT is the simplest bike I've owned for DIY maintenance and little expense.

That is correct. I have not.
No offence to you, or any other aficionado, it’s just never been a bike brand that has managed to connect with me in any way.
But that’s why Baskin & Robbins has 30-wonderful flavours - so we can all choose what we like.
Some people like Cherry Garcia, some like Tiger Tail…
