Name a bike you regret selling thread... my turn 🥹

Moto Guzzi V7 Classic. 2010 Neo retro, even if it doesn't mean much more than fuel injection about Moto Guzzi bikes.

She was a typical Moto Guzzi: lovely engine, great handling and finish-it-yourself everything else.

Not too viby, just enough to remind you motorcycles are a bit more than mecanical parts in motion, riding was inspiring and relaxing. One can say operating a Moto Guzzi like that forces you too go nice and slow, mostly like driving an actual vintage bike, except it fires up every time.

This one I regret selling because 10 years later I am looking at it again, and now I should afford owning more than one bike at a time.
