General Discussion / Re: Best looking motorcycle« Last post by faffi on Today at 01:25:09 AM »I think an interesting twist on this thread would be this.. I pity those who went for a Magni when they become 80+ ![]() But your twist certainly brings up the most important aspect; functionality. Comfort, reliability, ease of maintenance, parts availability and more. The wise choice may be electrical for those under 40, but you never know - petrol (or suitable substitutes) may still be available 40-50 years from now. Ignoring that, I would still have to think long and hard before I can come up with an answer. Which would probably change every week anyway ![]() 4
General Discussion / Re: Foolish idea?« Last post by antmanbee on January 29, 2026, 11:38:48 PM »Why are you getting a new regulator? It looks like it was replaced before. The one in the picture looks to be a Shindengen FH020AA regulator which is probably the best you can buy. If it is bad it would be easier to replace with the same kind which is still available. Someone already put on the proper connectors for that regulator.

For most of us getting a bike just right is an ongoing process. Have had the T-3 since late 89 and been messing with it the whole time trying to get it just right. Very close currently. ![]() 9
General Discussion / Re: Best looking motorcycle« Last post by cliffrod on January 29, 2026, 08:20:00 PM »My choice of the best looking motorcycle, for the last 30+ years and before (Faffi) & after (Huzo) any arbitrary guidelines, is my old V7 Sport-
![]() I’ve mentioned before that I believe the original V7 Sport is one of the best motorcycle compositions- in terms of symmetry, the use of element repetition to reinforce the overall design, economy of elements and enduring relevance, to name only a few reasons- that has ever been achieved. It does not pretend to be something it is not or to do things it cannot do and it does many things very well. The V7 Sport is the original design that has been copied & continues to be copied 55 years later…. This specific bike has changed little cosmetically (only a frame repaint) since I got it. Restoring it would sanitize where it’s been, what it’s done and what it represents to me. If I was faced with only having one bike for the rest of my life, whatever the reason(s) may be, it would be a simple decision to make. Even if I could never ride it again, I will own this machine until I die. 10
General Discussion / Re: Anyone removed/replaced V7 III wiring loom?« Last post by DoubleGuzzi on January 29, 2026, 08:02:48 PM »Oh, I've already had the joys of the V50II airbox, thanks - the PO had managed to bend the capillary pipe (cannae mind what it's called offhand). I took the whole thing out by removing the battery etc., so as to check and clean it all. That was easy compared to my latest "adventure".
My Breva has gone to pastures new. I know that I'll regret it as it ran so strongly and being a 2008 has the revised gearing plus the lowered seat. I needed the garage space to work on the Shiny.. Had the Carbon Shine (there's a thread on my additions) for just over a year but restrict its use to Summer-ish 6 months - hence only 400miles (amongst other reasons). Hopefully I'll get on better this year - and not bash my shin on the left footpeg so often, if not completely! I reckon I can chop up a BMW F650GS or Triumph Sprint 955i RS harness that I have somewhere in the garage, to get some suitable wire. Mulling over: £24 for UK supplied or £10 for China supplied connector, hoping that it's the right size.. hmm. I'll sleep on it. Yesterday (my timezone) I discovered the ABS unit is made in China. ![]() |
