Right now I am riding a 2012 Moto Guzzi V7, my wife wants me to sell the GT as is. She does not 'get it' that I just might enjoy the work on the GT. The feelings of getting it going again are priceless!!
Keep the GT. Like many great machines, and people for that matter - its quirky ! 8)

+1 on keeping the GT500

I thinking riding a vintage bike on the local backroads at around the speed limit is even more fun when you also ride the same roads on a modern bike. Something friends with modern 100+ HP bikes don't' understand.
BAS (Bike Acquisition Syndrome) - too many bikes but have room for more
