[Massimiliano]

Hello everybody, my name is Massimiliano, I am from Palermo, Italy, and I am a proud owner of a 1999 FI BlackBird.
I bought the XX a few months ago, I just rode her for 300 miles and now she is under a thorough maintenance sitting completely dismantled in my garage. We'll be soon hitting the roads again.
If you ever plan a trip by motorcycle here in Sicily, know that you have a friend here !

Welcome aboard Massimiliano.

If you're doing a major strip down then it's well worth sponsoring the forum.
If you run into problems while she's on the bench then any issues you have can be resolved by the good folk on here.

Ciao Massimiliano,
I live in London and Pescara and try to ride down there at least once a year (although not on the Blackbird, as I find the GSA much more comfortable for that distance). I'm thinking of taking a tour around Sicily maybe later this year (I'm addicted to Montalbano on tv) and I'll let you know.

Enjoy the bike - watch out for the Polizia Stradale!

If you're west of Ireland you must be stuck in a boat.

Especially this one!!

Although when I was in Italy the main activity of the Carbonieri seemed to be parking illegally outside coffee shops, going in and drinking espresso while chatting up anything in a skirt!!
