Loved my V7 so much I had to add a V85TT. What great machines!

Es que me tiene enamorado 🫶

Some late summer weather here in WA. Hard to decide today between the V7 or the Eldo!

Also weirdly my first street bike.

2016 V7 Stone

And before anyone says bUt ThE cRaNkShAfTs, previous owner replaced the engine.

New V100, old Breva 750. Not ready to let either one go 😅

Picked this Shoei helmet for the color combo. This bike is the only thing made me happy for some time.

I’m tired, and need a windscreen

so nice to ride
a bit sad that the season is almost over

I was in the garage doing some maintenance on one of my bikes this afternoon, so in a quiet few minutes I took the bevel drive apart to see what the problem was. As predicted, it was the bearing nearest the wheel that had started to go. You can clearly hear how bad it has become in this video.

Next steps are to get the shaft pressed out of the assembly, remove the failed bearing, refill it with oil and reassemble it as a back up.

Ciao a tutti, ho una Moto Guzzi V7 Stone e sto avendo un problema con la leva del cambio.
Il bullone della leva tende ad allentarsi durante la guida e, quando succede, la leva del cambio diventa parecchio traballante e ha molto gioco.
L’ho già stretto, ma dopo aver guidato un po’, probabilmente a causa delle vibrazioni della moto, il bullone si allenta nuovamente e il problema si ripresenta.
È capitato anche a qualcuno con la V7?
Secondo voi cosa dovrei fare? È sufficiente stringerlo nuovamente oppure sarebbe meglio utilizzare un frenafiletti, cambiare il bullone/dado o controllare anche che non ci siano problemi alla filettatura o alla leva?
Non vorrei continuare semplicemente a stringerlo e ritrovarmi con il problema durante una marcia.
Grazie a chi mi sa dare qualche consiglio!

Back on Guzzi after a detour on Triumph, BMW and Husqarna. The Mandello is really great, feels a lot like my old Gris just not as naked.
Saw the Givi touring windscreen but that does not work with radar, suggestions?

Also, thinking about buying the Kriega drypack, https://kriega.com/sports/touring/us-20-drypack19 based on good reviews here. Any other suggestion that is dead simply to fit, holds a lifetime and looks better than the Kriega?
