My cube is a little different..
You're weird.

I notice a lot of V7 owners replace the factory mufflers with aftermarket pipes. Is it 100% necessary to reflash the ECU with a new fuel map after doing that? Seems like the devices for that all cost $500 or is there another way of doing that? Can I connect a laptop to it?
A re-flash is not necessary. My V7-850 fuels perfectly with my Mistrals. I do leave the db killers in because I only wanted a bit extra rumble. With db killers in the stock fuel mapping works fine.  The older generation V7III and prior can be hooked up to a computer via the GuzziDiag program. There are Beetle maps available for the older gen V7s which are great. I installed one on my 2015 V7.  I will admit the Mistrals and others are a lot of money for the bit extra aural enjoyment. The stock mufflers were just fine.

Like I always told people buying computers; "Hurry up and buy it now before the price goes down."

For those of us that had ridden since we could legally ride on the road its a bell curve of displacements.
Mine runs, 80cc, 350cc, 750cc, 850cc, 1000cc, 1100cc, 1800cc. Current stable is 850, 850, 800, 750, 650.
Thanks to improvement in technology small displacement doesn’t mean poor performance. 400’s now are as capable as 750s were 50 years ago.

My cube is a little different. 750cc, 700cc, 500cc, 400cc, 1200cc, 250cc, then arge and small at the same time with 200cc being the smallest, and 1750cc the largest.

I rode a 72 Eldorado back in the 80's from Texas to all over the western USA. Stopped riding to pay for college. In 2006, I bought a California than traded it in for a Breva 1100 at MPH and later added a red Griso. Sold those in 2012 when the economy tanked and I was unemployed for a year. Getting the itch to start riding again. Really glad to see WildGuzzi is still here!
A V7-850 looks very appealing to me as a returning rider. As you all know, it has great looks. It's simple to work on and has oodles of character.

I resemble that statement except that there will probably be a Vespa at the end. After all I started on a Bianchi scooter, displacement unknown now. In addition my V7lll is going to be my new tourer, the Mandello just for day riders. kk

A couple of years ago I built a tire changing stand with an attached bead breaker. It doesn't look like much but does the job. I used it to change the tires on my V7 and T120 Triumph. I now also have a Mandello. I will take the wheels to the local shop just a block or so away. I wouldn't be able to sleep nights if I scratched one of those gold wheels.  kk
