I haven't spoken with Gordon in ages. I stopped calling when they transitioned to mostly web ordering. If I recall, someone (not Gordon or Rick rip) instructed me to place my orders online.

General Discussion / Re: potential new V7-850 owner
« Last post by Beowulf on Today at 09:23:02 PM »
Have owned my v7 850 for the past four years. Initially I had a few issues that were fixed under warranty. Bad ecu mostly. Bike has been solid since then. 25000 miles and honestly just great. I bought Zard exhaust and a map to go with. 40-45 mpg. I keep it pegged between 75-80 mph. Commuted a lot with it. No complaints. Currently the wife has taken it over as it’s very fun to ride.

I’m 230 pounds. No overheating issues. Commuted 120 miles on average. Sometimes two up.

This may be a bit late…..I’ve owned a few bikes over a ten year period since I’ve started riding. Suffice to say the v85 is hands down My favorite. A crotch rocket it is not. Plenty of power yes…I love this bike is an understatement. It handles well. Doesn’t feel heavy. Friendly steering. Takes curves like it’s nothing. Stable, reliable and easy to understand. Maintenance has been easy. I ride it commuting to work.

I have taken extended trips. I would ride this anywhere. I have ridden a lot of different makes.. still my favorite. I currently have 10000 mine. Wouldn’t trade it for anything. Have had several v7’s loved them. Have had Harley’s, Kawasaki, Honda and ride triumphs. Still stuck on this bike. 100000 plus on motorcycles so far and by no means a lot compared to other riders but I give the v85 two big thumbs up. For what’s it’s worth

I'm shooting to be there, Bob.
The main question is whether I'll be riding a Guzzi or a Piaggio?  :grin:

I replaced the turn signal with led but had to do some work to do it.  Disconnected the original and added 2 led's, one for right and one for left.  Left the original lamp there with nothing hooked to it.  Had to replace the flasher also as I had put in all LED lamps.  This is an 03 EV.

Shifting into 1st rather than neutral as your rolling to a stop may eliminate the clunk.

Sorry for the circumstances, but congratulations on the Galletto.  One of the Guzzis I haven't been able to snare as of yet.

Enzo of Cadre Cycle owns a very nice example.  He may be able to give you some advice.

I don't understand the desire to work at ground level, so I guess we agree to disagree. Personally, my days of working on the floor are over. I don't care if everyone else works in a hole in the ground in my world the work comes to me and my back is better for it. YMMV

All the work (moving the lever) is being done at waist level. <shrug>

Is Aurora Honda/BMW still family owned? I bought my 1970 R75/5 from them when Wayne and his wife owned it. I had a night time weekend job at a rental shop on Yosemite back then. We did a lot business with them as the Zoomies from Lowry did a pretty good job tearing them up. Fun times, I was in the Army at Fitzsimmons.
