You really need to ride them all before you decide. All my other current bikes are lighter than the V100 but you don’t feel that weight. The V100 is very nimble and rides like its on rails. You just have think about going around a curve. Very little effort required.

"And I personally would not let a color decide what I'd buy, function is more important to me."
Wish I was that practical. I have to admit that I won't buy a bike that doesn't first "catch my eye." For example, a few years back I bought a new green/white Kawasaki Z900RS Cafe because of how it looked even though the standard Kawasaki Z900 would outperform it in every way.
That being said, it can "catch my eye" but subsequent research/test ride before purchase might dictate it wouldn't work for me. That has occurred with a number of motorcycles over the years. Nowadays I have a personal reluctance to purchase any moto weighing more that 226 Kg/500lbs wet. So the Mondello, gorgeous as I think it is (in red) is off the table for a "Guzzi in Texas." So probably another V7 Special of some yet-to-be-determined year/color.

This most likely won't be popular, but it seems much ado about nothing.
Amen! "Much ado about nothing" is exactly why internet forums are popular. Everyone is an expert, except the other guy...... It doesn't cost anything to voice an opinion, & if you don't expect anyone to agree with you, there is no downside! Everyone love dopamine!

Several of the sales staff at Richmond Moto are girls. VERY cool and knowledgeable too. I've been down several times, is a great dealer but 2 hours. Rumor has it that one of the larger multi brand shops in my area (Dulles) is picking up Guzzi this fall. I have one 20 minutes from my house (La Moto) but they are a soup sandwich for sales, parts, repair. I'm wondering being that the Multi Brand shop is only 20 minutes away if La Moto will close?
Given the fact that, in general, women are much, much more articulate than men,& more socially adept, it seems like a good business decision to have them as sales representatives whenever possible. I'm about 2-3 hours from Richmond, I'll have to check them out sometime.

I got a white Special a couple of weeks ago. I have always liked white bikes. The rims are painted black, I would have liked chrome but I suppose the black rims will be easier to keep looking good. kk

The jetting I had in my 850T and Dunstals, K&N ovals, was 60 pilot, 150 main. Can't remember if I raised needle a notch, was 1977.
