    If I had a spare 15k,I’d have the Guzzi Custom. But the most I can reasonably spend on a new bike is about 10k. How about a 750-California Custom? The current V7 is too cramped for my 60 year old legs/hips.

  2. Clarke Johnston says:

    The Griso exudes motorcycle DNA like crazy, and the California Custom and Touring are lighter AND faster than many other “Cruisers” or “Touring” mounts out there. Terrific looking bikes!
