...I agree that the clutch and gearbox are far nicer than on my Griso. I do miss the big block grunt a little but as others have mentioned, the Mk3 really isn't lacking for real-world, street riding power. Based on my side by side comparison with a demo Stornello, the Mk3 is noticeably more powerful, smoother and better suspended. Better seat too....
I'd like to put in a plug for the selling dealer, if I may.Flying Tiger MotorcyclesMaplewood, Missouri(St. Louis)Upfront, honest, and no hidden fees or BS. Excellent ++ transaction. And two free test rides......
Overall, a great looking bike! I must say, however, that the V7III's cat/silencer units are rather gigantic in proportion to the size of the bike. Undoubtedly the need to incorporate a cat plays a large role in swelling the muffler dimensions. These pipes contrast strongly with the elegant, slender stainless silencers I just received from Keihan Systems for my V50: classically slim, graceful and lightweight.
