Re: A Canary Cafe Racer
Jan,
Love the Austin! Nice old cars. Anyone would love to tour in that!
Can you send us more pics of your Multistrada, please? I always thought the bodywork was a bit bulky on those, with the oily bits hanging way down below! I'm no fan of the styling of the newer 1200 Multi either, so your slimmed-down version of the 1000DS is likely the best of the batch. Don't mean to be rude, but the Cagiva Gran Canyon is still my favourite big-traillie-with-Ducati-power!
Chees,
Nick

The Saab V4 sounds real interesting too... a Ford V4 I believe.

Re: A Canary Cafe Racer
I’m just out for the last trip with my lovely Raptor, A guy from Madrid bought the bike so we agreed meeting up in Sevilla at Saturday morning, This was the perfect excuse to make an last journey!
I border a ferry taking me from Gran Canaria to Huelva at the mainland this morning, The whether and sea is very nice so hope this will be a nice trip.
At same time I’m picking up my next project a Guzzi 1000Sp 1980 model, great fun beer and tapas with friends are waiting ...

Re: A Canary Cafe Racer
Ooo....I luv Guzzis. That engine wobble on start up & when blipping the throttle. I used to own a V50 many moons ago & I remember the UJ spectacularly collapsed at speed taking out the casing in the process and leaving behind a cloud of aluminium dust
Always hankered after a Le Man but the Duke arrived first...
I though the SP was the 'tourer' it looks like that one has been 'le manned'
What is it they say, a Ducati will get you there but a Guzzi will get you back.

Re: A Canary Cafe Racer
Andy,
A V50 reintroduced me to biking in the distant past! Mine was reliable but not inspirational, and I was subsequently seduced by a Cagiva Alazzurra (Pantah in drag, sort of...)
However, I have another Guzzi now, awaiting a first ride; a '57 Airone Sport 250. The locals will be amazed!

Re: A Canary Cafe Racer
Yeah, that was pretty much it but it was my first 'real' bike and it was different from the plethora of CX500s & UJMs about at the time.Mine was reliable but not inspirational
The Airone sounds good
