I bought one last year, now has 18000km on it. I like it, my wife likes it too at the back. There are always things you want different on a bike. I put on a larger screen from Givi, Different shaped steer from LSL, Atlas alu cases from Givi(cheaper than the plastic ones from Guzzi), And put something under the sidestand to have it more upright.   
When new I let the dealer change the tires to Continental Trailattack 3, read tire made it the whole 18000km. Front even has 4mm left.

A mate of mine just bought the 2025 duecento tributo.  Only 10 coming to Australia apparently.  The first gear clunk had been rectified I am told.  Though I do like the first gear clunk on my old brevas

There actually shouldn’t be a clunk on a dry clutch bike Mick. It’s just a Norge without a fairing.

It's running in oil.

A Breva ?

A Breva ?

Huzo,

The new Stelvios are V100s, related to the V100 Mandello.

Not related to the CARC bikes of 20 years ago.

The V100s have a wet clutch.  Both Mandello and Stelvio.

Yeah Rock, but Peacemealadventurer said he liked the clunk on his old Breva. It was that to which I was referring when I said there shouldn’t be such a clunk.
Also when people compare the crash from a gear engagement on their new Guzzi with that of a Japanese four, for instance, they may be overlooking that the clutch rotates at about one quarter engine rpm on such a thing, whereas on a Guzzi, it rotates at 100% engine rpm.
No worries on a correctly operating dry clutch if you pull the lever and wait (literally) 2-3 seconds. On my Norge or V85, if I wait 2 seconds after pulling the lever, I cannot tell that it’s gone into first.

I bought one in June and have 7,000 miles now. I took it on a 3,000 mile ride to Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, and it was fantastic. I have the taller heated seat and the Givi touring screen. I wear tall ADV boots and the heat is minimal. But on a hot day my legs do get warm if I am not moving much. The suspension is firm but well damped. Overall I think it is fantastic.

My Mandello clunked into gear, my Audace made a thunk and the Harley clanked into gear. The Harley was the only one that bothered me. My dry clutch small block Guzzis have been silent, in fact I have had to look at the light to make sure they went into gear. My new V7 850 has a very subtle neutral "engagement."  Without the light or readout it is hard to determine if neutral has been selected or not.

Ah, Sorry, I missed that.
