I had a Guzzi Breva for a while. If I remember right it was a 2 valve head. Very easy to work on. The odd part was that you didn't need a wrench to turn the engine over. Once the plugs were out you could turn it by hand. Very loose.
I liked the bike a lot. But the final drive dumped oil on the back tire on me. Twice. The second time I took it in I told the dealer to keep the bike. Not worth the risk to me. I had gone to Guzzi because of the final drive failures making the news on the BMWs. Turned out that both MG and BMW were using the same bearings and that was at least part of the problem.
So I sold the MG and got an F800ST.
