Manuals, diagrams, websites.......
« on: May 18, 2015, 07:59:57 AM »
I am going to pick up a 2013 V7 in N.C. in June, ride the blue ridge parkway and the tail of the dragon and then ride home to DFW Texas.  I've got a number of BMW's and have learned all about the resources that are out there, like one website owned by "snowbum" that has years of accumulated tips, knowledge, and helpful information.  I'm also working on and restoring several bikes. 

I'm wondering if everyone could share their favorite resources here, to save me and others the time and trouble.  Even a source for a repair manual for my new guzzi.

There are multiple OEM manuals that you will need. At minimum the Stone/Special/Racer service manual, and the separate Engine Manual for the 1 throttle body motor.

I forget, but you might want the earlier V7C manual too in case something is missing from those two.

Harpers Moto Guzzi website has the parts manuals available for look up, but you may find a pdf of them available as well.

Tips are mostly here or at www.guzzitech.com

Have fun.

Still waiting for someone to post a pdf of the US V7II owner's manual, so I can read the damn thing.  The print is absurdly small in the paper version that came with my bike.

I don't see any 1TB model info.

At least not in the service manuals.

The same with the one that came with my California 1400. Would be nice to have a large book style manual. I was going to check the cost from Kinko's to print one. :BEER:

If you come thru Asheville NC on a Wednesday, you should hit Wedge Brewing. There is an impromptu bike night there.. Usually 2-3 v7's, and several knowledgable Guzzi folks on LeMans, Ambo, or others. Good chance to see a few different ones side by side, see the various accessories or bag mounts etc in person.

Usually afternoon/early evening time frame.
