IT’S NOT A SUBMARINE ANY LONGER
WORDS – BORIS MIHAILOVIC PHOTOGRAPHY – DEAN ‘BOY BAND’ WAlTERS

The daytime running light is the Moto Guzzi eagle.

RIGHT, SO FIRST THING first. It’s pronounced “Moh – toh Gooh-tzi”,not “Mowda Guhzee”.

Now that’s out of the way, let me state it is common knowledge among motorcyclists that Moto Guzzi riders are the submariners of the motorcycle world.

Like real submariners, they live a truth denied to others. Brave or crazy, or chunks of both, they’re fun to have a drink with until they’re not. Then you have to use a chair to subdue them.
