Moto Guzzi(s): LeMans V11 and Centauro V10

[bandhav]

Newray makes some very desirable bikes which other manufacturers don't do. I have few of Newrays all of those are equally bad.

IIRC even I have a Moto Guzzi, I think its call brera, My Brother In Law gifted it me, while he was trying to impress the family.

I don't have much ideas about motor bikes, I love the roadsters though, the bigger versions of the FZ16s but these are way too big for a short guy like me Anyway nice photos, I hope I would be able to see them all shorltly.

I hope you were able to see the pictures later
I love bikes too. They just have a sense of freedom about them.

Hahaha! Thanks Winston. Though no where close to these, but i have the original CBZ which is my pride and joy. Haven't ridden it for a while now though

BTW, that engine on the centauro looks menacing.

Thanks Siddvi The Centauro's engine looks awesome, just like a naked cafe racer should be

I prefer NewRay over Maisto for their 1/12 bikes. NewRay is much better finished, has better lensing as opposed to Maisto which are usually painted on to mimick back lights etc. Ofcourse, these NewRays that I am talking about are from 3-4 years earlier, now they make crap too... but I got their 'Busa last year, and that is again much better finished than the Maisto Busa.

Do post pictures of your Guzzi too

Wow, I remember seeing a lotta these everytime I dropped by a shop to pick up new bikes back in those days but never got any cuz I neva found these in scale 18. Great stuff man, you made me remember my old days, getting the 1:12's outta the way and reach for the 1:18's & then end up holding like 5 models that I want but can only pick at most 2, man I wanna be a kid again.

Thanks for the offer Koncrete, but it'd be rather unpleasant for me to sell them - I love these models and I collect 1:12 bikes too

Look forward to seeing your 1:12 collection of bike. You can use http://www.imgbox.com to upload your fotos. Its fast n simple

plz tell me if you know from where i could buy these 2 moto guzzi bikes,,,,,,tell me if you want to exchange these with some other bikes.

[Guggga]

^^ I got these 3-4 years back from a shop in Center Stage Mall in Noida.
Show us your collection, maybe I like something and we could do an exchange.

Oh boy, that's not how a first post is supposed to be. This is what you do, you join in, give a small intro HERE, share your collection by creating your very own thread & appreciate other members collections. You become a part of SMC, you become an SMCian. I know how it is when you can't find something you really want & a fellow collector has it but go ahead & ask them to sell it you is not the first thing you do. Anyways, welcome to SMC. Looking forward to seeing your collection. And who knows your collection might impress Guggga & he might consider parting with them to benefit another collector. But first you gotta prove you deserve them more than him & that can only be done by showing us what you got.
I also collect motorcycles but in 1:18 so hopefully, I won't be receiving any such offers.
