Hi guys, I have just fitted some first mods on my v7.
SW Motech crash bars to protect the bike if I mistakenly drop it and Shock Factory 2WIN rear absorbers as the standard ones weren't good enough for me (back ache after riding all day)
I am also waiting on an ex moto sidebag and an upmap to finish it off.
What are your mods ?
Cheers !
Hi guys,
I am planning on buying this kit from guareschi for my v7 850 E5 but I have one question, do you guys know if I can roll back to the original map with this ?
I am asking because I don't know if with this my bike won't fail emissions test in France with a custom map, when I need to do it in a few years.
Thanks !
Anyone has this air filter kit ? Filtro Aria Sportivo Con Cornice GCorse - Guareschi Moto I am on the fence of buying it with an upmap but it's a bit pricey. Any noticable gains anywhere ? Sound ? Mileage ? Performance ? Cheers !
Edit: I have mistrals on my bike and I will also buy an upmap. Just wanted to know if the air filter is worth it alongside the upmap and mistrals
So as per my previous post where I had oil on my tire - first picture for reference. I had too much oil from factory in my rear drive.
The dealer was useless and didn't do anything but retorque the bolts to spec as it stopped leaking. Yeah thanks, I will do it myself.
For anyone searching, for a 2021-2024 v7:
Drain plug seal is an aluminum washer with a rubber inner lip, 10x18x1.5mm M10, torque 30Nm
Filler plug seal is a copper washer, 12x16x1.0mm, torque 25Nm
Oil is 75w140 GL5, 160ml
Hi there! How do you wash your v7? Which products do you use? Also some grease or WD?
I washed this new to me bike for the first time this spring (purchased near the end of the season last summer). First ride after the wash I created chocolate milk coming out of the vent pipe. I am guessing my pressure washing was to vigorous and I sent water into the drive shaft. I’m planning to swap the oil now. My question is, how specific is the crush washer dimensions?
For the Moto Guzzi V7 III Stone, the rear final drive (shaft drive) oil drain plug typically requires a 10mm x 18mm x 1.5mm crush washer (OEM Part # GU10528900).
If I can’t get that part in time can I use a generic crush washer m10x16x 1mm?
Thanks for the help.
Hey everyone. I just bought a 2016 moto guzzi v7 ii racer and it was straight piped. Seller was 2nd owner and barely rode the bike and bought it like this. Can anyone tell me what’s inside? A baffle/db killer? Or is it a diy thing? Looks like teeth from the exhaust metal bent inwards. Any help would be appreciated!
Also since it’s straight piped should I run beetlemaps?
Greetings from Nice, France :)
My 2024 Stone has mistral exhausts and sounds really nice. I also love the ocasional pops and crackles when re opening throttle between 4000 and 5000 rpm, or the pop when down shifting with a blip on the throttle.
I might want to do a tune on it to smooth out the jerky low rpm throttle and the hole between 2800 and 3200 rpm when accelerating but I don't want to completely loose the poping and cracking noise...
Do you have any recomendations on it ?
Any mod that will make the bike run better for these 2 conditions without deleting the fun pops ?
Mistral v twin boost ? Velocity stack ? K&N filter ?
Cheers !
I've been looking around for rear racks for the 850 v7 stone and all of the brands I've found have a limit of 6kg (13lb) or less. Is this the brands coverings they're ass or is there something keeping them from being able to put a decent rear rack on the V7? I wanted to put a large hardcase on the back for more storage when I had a passenger but at least with my current options, a decent box would go over the limit if I put anything in it. Anyone with real world knowledge either about the v7 or rear racks in general would be appreciated?
Bought this used 2024 v7 stone with 1350km (demo bike) tuesday and today when I rode it a bit harder at 1500km she leaked oil :/
It doesn't seem to come from the nut on the bottom but from the space between the moving part attached to the wheel and the fixed part where the lug is.
I cleaned it up, took off the bolt where you add oil and there was a tiny bit of oil that came out. I retorqued both bolts but they were already snug.
I hope I wont need a driveshaft seal rebuild, I will carefully comute to work tomorrow to see if it is still leaking.
I already took an appointment with the dealer.
What's your thoughts ?
Edit: commuted to work this morning and no oil spillage. So my best guess is overfill from factory and the oil spilled out when hot hot.
Estou a adorar esta moto. Recentemente e na esperanca de mandar vir uns escapes em breve, decidi começar pelo filtro de ar da dna e pelo mapa OEM da UPmap. E que diferença. Para além do som do filtro tem uma resposta muito mais linear do acelerador. 👌
