The maybe rumored Le Mans might be interesting too with 80 hp

I have a Quota.
I liked the Quota too, don’t have one though.
The Tubed or Tubeless debate runs and runs on ADVrider ?............it seems like the blue on is wearing Tourance Next so thats tubeless then 
The more I see of this bike the more I like it. The last new bike I bought was the 1989 Supertenere 750 in a fairly similar paint scheme (red yellow white) . I don't like wasting money on a new bike but if its under £10k I might just be persuaded.........after all it is a Gutsi

I've just blown most of my bike fund on my new tiger 1200, but I'm saving hard. Hope you're right Rushy and it comes in at under 10k. Somehow I don't think it will.
It will be just over 10k I reckon but I’m sure there will be deals to be had later in the year
Really looking forward to riding it. 80bhp and a 2 valve engine, it could be really good. I've had three 4 valve Guzzi's, all 1200 Stelvio's and two 2 valve Guzzi's. One 1200 sport and one 1100 Breva. They've all been nice bikes, but the Breva 2 valve 1100, which I still own, is I believe 83bhp and is an absolute delight to ride. After much searching I found a very low mileage 16plate Stelvio, one of the last with the black frame. I really liked it. Then I rode a 2 valve 1100 Breva which actually spurred me on to sell the Stelvio and look for a 2valve 1100. I decision which I do not regret in the slightest.
As an aside, I recently took my 1200 Tiger for it's first service at Team Roberts in Doncaster. When I arrived there was an 05 Griso 1100 2 valve in black with 7k miles sat in the Showroom. It looked as though it had just come off the production line. Price tag was £3995. I instantly made the decision that I was having it.
Phil had sold it 20mins before I got there
. A telephone sale to a guy in Scotland.

Before I’m castagated for being negative, I think it looks great and I would seriously consider buying one although may be bit cramped for us leggy types.
The spec., however, isn’t that much different from my 1979 850 LeMans2

The more I see if this bike, the more I like it.
It is good looking, but I'd like to see what's left after riding it through the sea
Springs to mind..

The second , and last , new bike I bought was my first adventure bike in 1989 when Yamaha launched the Super Tenere 750 . This could be my 3rd new bike!?
