I think you either love em or hate em! I loved mine but it wasnt all that comfortable tbh being an older bike (1979)
Mine was my first bike in 2002, hubby has had several Guzzi's, over the years - Le Mans mk I, mk II, mk4 and 5, Spada, G5, and he had the 1100 Sport injection when I got my V50 - mind you it was a bit worse for wear, I used to have to lean down and put my side stand down by hand because the lug had rusted off! but the sound from those twin exhausts was georgous (and they were standard!)
I always had a permanant grin on my face too - at any speed! - I only got rid because I wanted something more modern and with more oomph
