I so agree and for some reasons, the GRiSO didn't sell all that well but I kinda blame that on the non existent marketing/advertisement about the bike and the CARC machines in general. A new Guzzi dealer (Seminole Power Sport) opened up 20 miles away from my house and they have a new GRiSO still there on the floor but even though folks are very curious about it and like the bike as well, they just don't know what to make of Moto Guzzi as most never heard of the brand. Put a Honda badge on this thing and it will sell like hot cakes!

Back to the point about Piaggio's indifference to sound business practice, failure to promote the brand and product is a huge problem. You can't sell many motorcycles, no matter how good they are, if most people don't know they exist. Their promotional efforts in the US are absolutely pathetic.

Pete, you are so right! I share your opinion about the 2017 portfolio.
Is anybody here active on LinkedIn? I posted a comment here: Moto Guzzi enthusiasts

GRiSO and Stelvio (CARC bikes) seem to be not in MG Portfolio for 2017 anymore!
It seems that we just have the small but beautiful V7s for 2017 and the ones which I personally not like at all: V9 (Circus bikes for Hipster clowns), California 1400 (too heavy for the old farts) .
Piaggio change your mind!
The GRiSO could have been there where the BMW R9T is ... with clever marketing!
Maybe some officials form MG/Piaggio will read it.
