Moto Guzzi V7 owners: tire recommendations and shaft drive considerations?
Hi everyone,
I'm thinking about replacing the tires on my Moto Guzzi V7 and I'd like to hear some real-world experiences from other owners.
Since the V7 uses a shaft drive, I'm particularly interested in knowing whether tire changes (especially the rear) are more complicated than on chain-driven bikes, and if there are any tips or common pitfalls to be aware of.
I'd also appreciate your recommendations on:
Best tire brands/models for mixed riding (city, country roads, occasional touring)
Tire longevity
Handling improvements compared to the OEM tires
Whether you've stayed with the stock tire sizes or switched to a different size
What are you currently running, and would you buy the same tires again?
Thanks!
