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!

Rear mirror v7

Hi, does happen to you that time to time you all of sudden the bolts tightening the rear mirror get loose? It’s the second time that risk losing it in the way and had to remove it. Also, the bolt is quite big and required a big wrench.
Have you changed something?
