Totally agree. I live close to a road that takes riders up into the
mountains. I see gazillions of HD's, HD wannabes and more Ducs than I have
ever seen before on a regular basis. In the year and a half of living here
in "motorcycle mecca" I have seen more Guzzis in Ed's and my garage than on
the road (not counting rallies of course).

Patrick, I sure would really like to believe "Outselling Ducati " . it is
kind of hard for me to believe guzzi is outselling Ducati in America ? or
really anywhere right now...

I spoke at length with John Stoddart at the National. I know they have
been on a campaign to push out older, unsold bikes. How many of you are
aware the Guzzi has outsold both Ducati and Aprilia (not counting scooters)
in the last several months? The times they are a changin'.
