ADV RED VIN#ZGUKWA002KM002208 - Michael M. @ Allgäu, Bavaria - Germany

I received it september 2nd, but due to private reasons up to winter I only run 750 km. Now I'll add up heated grip from MG during this shitty cold by myself. Visited Moto Guzzi museum @ Mandello del Lario in August as it is only 5 h drive from home.

Congrats and welcome to the GT Forum & Famiglia. We'll send some warm weather your way. Sure you'll enjoy it. Be sure to see the loose fasteners thread here too.

Loose fasteners ? - Would you mind giving me a more detailed hint what about it is ? Heard already about possible issues to foot assemblys and cardane.

I also bought lower saddle, it is 20mm lower (0,787") than standard. For me who is only 172cm it made little difference. Now I get my whole foot down in the ground.
 
just do it yourself. you can buy a foam pad at wally world for $4 in the sporting goods if you need it. a little time with a electric knife if available works wonders. If not a long serrated one.
 
I sold my 1200 Sport last Saturday and then flew to Austin to pick up my grey V85TT Tuesday. AF1 has a good deal going on the V85, as long as you want a grey one.
I hit 900 miles just as I was getting home, so oil and filter changed yesterday and going to work on the rest of the first service today.

Congrats! That's a big leap from a big block to small. What's your initial impressions? Did you ride a V85TT before you made the choice?
