Hey, that puts my closest dealer at 90 minutes away instead of 5 hours....makes me sad I sold my Milano.

Time to get another V7III.....I'm thinking another Milano or a Carbon Shine this time!!

That's good news, although their timing is pretty bad.  I hope the dealer does well.

My vote would be for the Milano!!

Me too. The Milano is my choice out of the V7's. I just can't afford one as a second bike right now. Maybe when I get the new mega expensive roof paid off.

I went there a few weeks ago with Leafman to check out the V85. They sell mostly Honda’s but are optimistic about Guzzi’s and they seem like good people.

I'm afraid that optimism will fade in time, once they get a taste of the harsh reality of selling the brand.  Their timing is likely bad as stated, but they are indeed filling a need and I will do my best to patronize them. 

The Milano is beautiful and was my favorite V7III from the get-go, but for some reason I'm leaning Carbon Shine right now.  As much as I love the tachometer the fact is I don't really "need" it.  I think it comes down to the tank...that chrome tank is so unique and the Milano's tank is pretty in pictures but in the flesh it's "gray milk" tone leaves me ambivalent.

The Carbon Shine is very nice looking also.   Regarding the Milano, I have pondered what color would be better than the battleship gray and brushed aluminum and haven't come up with a combo in my head that look better.  A red tank perhaps.

Hall's is a corporate dealer with quite a few locations.  These are the types of dealers that can handle the low volume and niche market for Moto Guzzi. 

Just like Sloan's who only sell a handful a year, but carry 13 or more other brands as well as ATVs and Side by Sides.

Yes, they seemed realistic about what they have with Moto Guzzi and Aprilia. They are also selling Benelli....
