« on: June 07, 2021, 03:12:06 PM »
Have searched In the forum but can’t find any new ownership reviews. Like it or not?

Sorry, V7 850 Special 2021. All I can find are the YouTube videos. Rather read what a real owner thinks.

How many folks do you think are going to buy one and then take the time to write a comprehensive review in the first months of ownership?

Every man and his dog wrote about their new V85 when they dropped.
Some individual threads ran 10 pages.
It got to the stage where it was not possible to say anything new.

Maybe v7 buyers are more into riding their bikes, than trying to convince others of how smart they were to buy it?  (Shrug)

There are no V7 riders, there are no V85 riders..
There are just riders, it doesn’t require analysis. They just want to share their experience... :thumb:
