General Discussion / Re: Big Block vs. Small Block for Lollipop Guild Member« Last post by Mwether on Today at 09:10:35 AM »All super helpful replies, folks! Thank you.
I should have been clearer about my price range. In reality, it's $3500 or less. Not seeing V7s in that range, except for the odd 2010. (Having owned a 2005 Multistrada, I'd rather avoid the plastic tank!) So I'm limited to older stuff like this '04 Breva in PA for $2500, which has been on FBM for 40 weeks! https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/182528568139173/ 5

At 40+ mph, I could see the III possibly wanting to keep straight due to the momentum and distribution of the extra weight, despite the reduced trail. 6
General Discussion / Re: Big Block vs. Small Block for Lollipop Guild Member« Last post by rocker59 on Today at 09:00:44 AM »Dirk, I think it's the weight difference. The early V7s were much lighter than the successive models. That 35-40 lbs is something you can feel on bikes like that. I liked the handling and feel of the 2010 V7 Classic better than later ones which I've owned and ridden. 7

General Discussion / Re: Big Block vs. Small Block for Lollipop Guild Member« Last post by Dirk_S on Today at 08:52:22 AM »That's funny because I'm convinced my MKI turns in more quickly and feels more nimble than my MKIII. Ooo…You encouraged me to check out the specs of the 3 bikes (per the service manuals):
That 5.4+ in. of trail would lead me to believe it would want to go straight more than the others, like a cruiser. I wonder if this might simply be ‘new bike feel’ on my part…or maybe it’s the tire. Who knows. I’m never as smart as I pretend. Mind you, the engine service manual for the older small blocks has verbiage cautioning us how to handle the antifreeze coolant in our bikes, so take those prankster Italians with a grain of fine Roman salt. 9

Fuel rail was full of goo, so been using DurAlt and it flashed lite on dash for O2 twice. It is clean now. 10
