To many, this is the Le Mans, to others this is the epitome of the Italian sports bike.

The Le Mans is possibly one of the best known motorcycles of any type an/or from any manufacturer. I've never been fortunate enough to ride one but my Guzzista partner in crime Gary used to own one...lucky bugger!
