A strange shaft-driven eye-talian motorcycle. The motor, originally used in tractors, consists of 2 large cylinders jutting upward on each side. Because they last so long, most owners are quirky old men over the age of 60. Often referred to as 'The Italian Harley'.
An often heard remark uttered by a local seen peering at the tank badge: "Modo-GOOZEE?? What the hell kinda Harley is THAT?"

bizarre but highly loveable cross between a motorcycle and a very fast tractor engine.
Although they are no Ducati, they were rudely fast in their day, and have quite rightly aquired the glow of legendary status.
A well ridden example will still scare the crap out of a modern ricer on the right road, and sound superb while doing so.
Later examples got more powerful, faster, heavier, taller in the seat and scarier to ride at speed, the very best example of this is the Mk4, best avoided unless you LIKE surges of adrenalin for all the wrong reasons

"Hey man, I was riding my 1100 Honsakawaki the other day, and I crapped myself when i was overtaken around a corner by a guy on a really loud red bike"
"Oh, did you see what it was?"
"Well it sounded like a Harley on acid!, I thought it was a Ducati, but when I did catch up it was a Moto Guzzi Le Mans!"
