How will this affect our ownership of the bikes? Will we find spareparts and accessories?

Only time will tell

don't worry , there are a lot of interesting buyers..
Moto guzzi probably will be sold in these days and already others partners knock at the doors..
(piaggio, ducati, bombardier, ecc...)
There are in these days too noise..in order to low the price... understand ?
Sunday a motorhome with many bikes to test wason tour in Italy. The spareparts ecc. are available.

this is translate by google... i guess that You can understand the means..


The cession of the Guzzi Motion seems unavoidable by now
Ducati (controlled from the group financial American TPG) for means of its president and general executive manager Federico Minoli. Obvious that at a distance of 4 years and considering it puts into effect it them situation of the group, the figure that Ducati is disposed to spend is inferior to that offer in 2000.
For the Aprilia Rotax-Bombardier is interested.
also from part of the group Piaggio, already supplying of the motors for the scooter to 4 Aprilia times. The fear, above all of the mayoralties, is that there is a game to the decrease: more time passes more the situation is complicated, with consequent lowering of the value of the group of Noale. As far as BMW, the interest it is only for one new partnership, null to that to see with the understood one them of the company. In practical the objective it is to repeat the operation of some year makes, when the F650, the single cylinder Bavarian, came constructed in the plants in veneto; operation that had a large one happening. For the F650 new, than BMW it wants to introduce to the Hall of Monaco of 2006, as in passed Aprilia it will collaborate to the planning, test and development. Provided that solution to the crisis arrives one soon."

Indeed, i wouldn't worry too much. Such a brand name will not disappear.
Maybe for some time delivery of spare parts will be more sluggish which can be an annoyance when you really need something urgently.
I'm waiting for several weeks already for the crashbars which will be urgently needed when i crash.

I totally agree with you, but sometimes to be Italian is let's say "funny"...
if the same finance shortage would happen to a French or Germany company immediately the Banks or the Government will intervene to support such type of company...
here it seems there are only vultures waiting...

let's cross our fingers...
