I like traveling on my Breva, a bit different than what I was used to but very capable.
I wish they would have kept at the Breva and added the 6 spd like the 2015 V7.
I wonder if the Breva bodywork, footpegs, forks, wheels, etc would all bolt up to a 2015.......

That's all right. Not only would I qualify for the "Big Guys on Small Bikes" website, but it would be even better than me on my 600cc BSA ......

Instead of a 6th gear just put a 130/90-17 on the rear like I did years ago. It lowers your gearing by 250 rpm. More tire choices that way too. I rode a B1100 when they 1st came out and it's 6th gear was no different than 5th gear on my Tonti Guzzis gearing wise. ???

OMG, that is gorgeous! Good job! :drool

That shade of red is perfect for Italian motorcycles.

If only MG put those heads on production bikes.

Have you compared the performance back-to-back with any of the V7 series (modern smallblock, not the Sport or any other vintage big blocks)?

I'm the current "keeper." ;D Yeah, that's the Aero engine. I did one of my epic ;) threads on the conversion this Winter.
