I saw a Moto Guzzi from my birth year at the motorcycle museum I visited last week, a 1961 125cc single. It was in a spot where I couldn't get a good photo of it...
A guy in my town that was a motorcycling inspiration to me when I was a kid had a beautiful 1970-something "Guzzi LeMans that I fell in love with. After that, he had a Benelli Sei. Both beautiful Italian sport bikes that were in a class of their own.
Virago 920 - don't remember the year but it would have been somewhere in the 1980-82 range. Trailered it back, along with my wife's Virago 500, to MA from CA when we moved in '83.
1983 Yamaha Virago - Rode this one all over New England, to Pigeon Forge, TN and back, then out to Ames, Iowa where I traded it in on a white 1986 Venture Royale for the ride home. The red bike parked next to mine is my wife's Virago 500.
