Title: My V7 850 hits 20000
Post by: Beowulf on August 21, 2023, 10:27:33 AM

So might be dumb. But I hit 20000 miles on my 2021 v7 850. Runs great still. After that hiccup I experienced with the ecu thought I’d give an update. Been very reliable. Have put on zard exhaust and done the remap at 12000 miles. I may update to a v100 eventually.

But for now really enjoying this.

Have you noticed oil consumption between two oil changes?

Not dumb at all. Glad you're enjoying it and the engine/transmission finally broke in.  :grin:

How do you like the remap compared to the original?

Thank you for all the kind responses. I’ve noticed no oil consumption and I’m not easy on it, not abusive but I run it. I attribute this to the oil change interval 4-5k and the magical purple yak fat.

I love the remap and the zard exhaust. I bought the map from Italian company who with zard. I forget the name and they made one and the same. Has a nice feel not overly loud. My wife loves it as well. I switch out bikes with her when I need to maintain hers.

I really like this bike. It’s hard to beat, nice size and keeps up with whatever I need to do. It’s my main commuter. Continental tires were a nice change. Sad I may need to find different tires soon. Still some life left.
