Moto Guzzi V7 Special (blu formale)

 Major update for the 2021 version of the Moto Guzzi V7: Bigger 850cc engine (from the V85, although not as powerful), new rear wheel, Kayaba shocks, strengthened frame and reinforced transmission, new seat and side panels. The bike looks bigger now and in the new "Blu Formale" color is just stunning.

BMW R Nine T Racer

Extending the Nine T series and presented in the 2016 Intermot. Although skeptical with all this retro trend I can not deny that we have the chance to see some truly beautiful bikes..

Give the man behind this idea credits please. Astonishingly simple, purposeful and elegant. Not for the typical hipster man.

Bravo BMW

Norton Commando 961

You get a black bike with gold ohlins all around. You get a parallel twin and a crancase looking so familiar that is almost embedded in your DNA. You get spoke wheels and 2 megaphones. You get a heavy name.

Norton Commando 961.

You get a motorcycle.

You get no sleep..

Kawasaki W800



They got it right :) Very few can be said against the classic lines and parallel twin beauty of the W800. It's a Kawasaki but obviously not proud of it: I guess someone thought that the Kawasaki name does not appeal to the target group of this motorcycle, hence no Kawa badge in the tank..:(

But you can just spend days admiring the details and polishing the shiny bits, then you just put on your leather jacket and head for a cafe down by the sea. Deserves to sell well although it probably will not..

Alfa Romeo Giulietta



It is not very common for a 2011 sports saloon to please the eye so much and at the same time to drive like an old Alfa.. The new Giulietta offers beauty, riding pleasure, elegance, and an interior that makes you just feel good. The traditional Alfa Romeo values still shine in a grey world.. Complimenti ragazzi !!

It's better in the wind



A truly inspiring film by Scott Toepfer. "It is better in the wind" speaks to the heart of all who love motorcycles, wind in the face, rides with the buddies, getting away but also looking for what really matters.. Reminds me of why I became a rider long time ago..
