Title: Love My V7 II Stone
Post by: Jim C on October 04, 2015, 08:10:25 PM
Just got back from a short ride on my new
2016 V7 II Stone. I love, Love, LOVE this bike.
 
It's better than my:

1976 Kawasaki KZ400
1986 Suzuki GS650
2005 Yamaha FJR 1300*
2009 Moto Guzzi V7 Classic

(*Okay, the FJR was pretty cool, but heavy)

It just gets better and better, but I'll be glad when I get my 620 miles
on it so I can leave the throttle alone. Transmission starting to loosen up,
starts quick and runs very smooth. Awesome bike!!  :thumb:

Have I mentioned that I love this bike?

that's funny.  I also had an 05 FJR.  Greatly prefer the Guzzi Stone, including for long trips. 
But if you say that in public people look at you like you are crazy.

Yes, the FJR was fast.  But it was also heavy, and hot, hot, hot.  I'm considerably more comfortable on the Stone than I ever was on the FJR.
