In our second segment, Associate Editor Teejay Adams chats with artist Karl Hoffman. Nic gives us his thoughts and tells us whether the new Guzzi actually delivers on its considerable promise. There are some big changes though, and not just to the motor the new Guzzi looks fast and sporting. The hallowed Italian marque has radically redesigned its flagship motor-while managing to keep its iconic v-twin look. Moto Guzzi just launched the new V100 Mandello S and Senior Editor Nic de Sena went to the event in Italy. Hello everyone and welcome once again to the Ultimate Motorcycling weekly Podcast-Motos and Friends. My name is Arthur Coldwells.
