7 Years With A V7
« on: May 15, 2020, 09:37:23 AM »
I haven't seen this posted before.  If it has,  my apology.

Great review of the V7 by a 7 year owner.   What sets this review apart is that he also uses the V7 as a track day bike at Brands Hatch!

It wasn't a competitive one or anything, but it was a ton of fun.

It was actually a riding course on the New York Safety Track. It was largely the NJ MGNOC members and taught by a Guzzisti who had a Griso at the time.

Wrote about it here:

Cam was there on his V7 too.

I enjoyed that.
I love his Triumph leathers. I always try to mix up branded gear. Used to give the beemer guys fits with my KTM boots Ducati jacket and various random tees.
And I’m pleased that I’m not the only one to do track days on a V7!
