I want to tune my V7 III
« on: June 14, 2020, 08:57:34 PM »
i would like to tune my V7 III, I have a pair of Megs from GTM on my bike, just the mufflers: https://gtmotocycles.com/collections/all-products/products/gt-motocycles-ss-v7-gp-megs?variant=16849179770923

The caveat is, I don't want to spend the $500 on the only tune they have available. In a perfect world I'd like to pay a smaller amount to whomever the expert is here. I know there's tunes out there for the mainstream stuff, could I use one of those and everything turn out ok? Has anyone taken the time to do some tuning with GTM stuff? What should I do? What would you do?

And yes I have guzzidiag and all the associated cords needed to actually use it.

Lots of happy customers with Beetle maps.  I have 3 bikes with them and they are all great. Most are $100

 A beetlemap can't coexist with mufflers from Guzzi Tech .

What's so special about the pipes ?  Looks like a larger diameter pipe with a reverse megaphone. Would Beetle have a map that would be close enough?

The GT tune is just a re-branded REXXER tune.  Any REXXER dealer can help you.  They will probably want to put your bike on a dyno in order to dial it in.  https://www.rexxer.com/

You’re funny, Dusty.

Nothing I enjoy more than when someone puts one of my maps in their bike running GT pipes and it runs superbly.

Wait??? You mean GT stuff isn't produced by blood sweat and tears in the California? They re-brand other products as their own?  I am shocked..........  :evil:

To the OP,  Guzzi Diag and a Beetle Map are the best things you can do for yourself and your V7.... Congrats on the new bike and welcome!
