New V7 Special Owner now...
« on: April 06, 2026, 04:25:10 PM »
Hello All,
Well, I pulled the trigger in a 2026 V7 Special today. Probably pick it up later this week. Excited, to say the least. Hoping for a good ownership and riding experience!

I don't recall the "official" name of the color, but it is the darkish-green metalic, which I find particularly handsome against the chrome trimmings.

Good Deal, welcome to our world. Got my 1st in 76, wrenching on them professionally in 88 cause I needed a job. I am not a hobbyist like most here.
Mostly retired now. Last shop I left was 2016, no retirement $ just SS. Have fun, easy wrenching. Good Luck homebuilder my Dad was EAA #13.
