    Just a small V9 update and a few questions

    I had the stock seat and its definitely harder than the single seat that comes stock with the sport. I upgraded to single seat and I find it quite comfy for short rides vs the stock plank that hurt my butt after 3 miles. Also, personally I find the look of the single seat to better suit the...

    V9 Bobber Riser - Want to lower the bar

    Isn't the V9 handlebar a 7/8"? I think the link that you posted is for fatter bars. I'd need the below to fit the Bobber. https://www.rizoma.com/universal/risers/az430/en AZ403B - fat bar (what you listed) AZ430B - 7/8" Do the V7 risers also work?

    V9 Bobber Riser - Want to lower the bar

    All, I would like to lower the height of my Bobber handlebar to make it more like the Bobber Sport. Right now, they just seem to high to me. Current height is about 3". Would the below work? Any other options like the Rizoma or the Biltwells...

    V9 Exhaust install question

    I got them from Cadre Cycle. I havent asked them yet but I will reach out soon. I was able to move the cir-clip around a little but with a lot of effort and some damage. I'll just take it to The Spare Parts Co and ask Roland to help me out.

    V9 Exhaust install question

    The only reason I didnt get a set of yours is because I have a SW-Motech bag on the right side. I've read that short pipes in general, including yours I guess which I initially looked at will damage the bags and you dont have a set of long black pipes. I had your pipes when I had my V7 Racer...

    V9 Exhaust install question

    Hey, I have a video on youtube. I have the baffles in since I cant get them out. I've tried everything. WD40, a mallet and a small screw driver to loosen them up, needle nose pliers, snap ring pliers. I've even damaged the coating on the exhaust. They'll be stuck in there I guess until I got to...

    V9 Exhaust install question

    Steve, thanks so much. I finally got it. Took me a couple of hours. It’s harder than it should be. If Agostini would have just made removable bolts instead of having to loosen everything to align it would have been so much easier. But I’m all done and happy with the sound. So much better than...

    V9 Exhaust install question

    Thanks Steve So to be sure I got it since I'm not sure what an X-over clamp is. I assume its the clamp that tightens down the exhaust to the header pipe. 1 - Loosen the clamp and remove old pipe and heat shield (which is done) 2 - loosen two bolts to allow for some header pipe movement From...

    V9 Exhaust install question

    Thanks Raven. I’ll have to spend more time. Between getting home late from work and having a 2 year old I don’t have much tinkering time. In lieu of no other advice, I will just have to loosen everything, possibly even the header pipes. I could see if I can loosen the bracket but the bolts on it...

    V9 Exhaust install question

    Evening, just received my Agostinis for my V9 and I have a question for those that have experience here. As per the picture, there is a bracket that provides support for the pipes. The Agostinis have two bolts that need to align and go into the bracket but once I connect the pipe there isn’t...

    My biggest motorcycle regret was selling my Racer when my kid was born two years ago. Don't even know what I was thinking! Glad you didn't sell her

    Leaking tubed tire - can I ride it to the shop?

    I'd have to lay her on her side to do that and I'd rather not.

    Leaking tubed tire - can I ride it to the shop?

    I just recently received my V7R ll back from the dealer after being there for 5 weeks. I was so happy to have her back but as I get home, I hear a hissing coming from the rear tire stem. I have a tubed tires so I try tighten the nut and loosen and tighten the core but shes still hissing. Even...

    Limited dealers, long wait times for repairs...

    I'm originally from South Africa where we get the full range of Alfa cars and numerous dealers. They have the same negative reputation and when I purchased my Giulietta, everyone wished me luck...I had the car for 3.5 years before moving to the US and only had one issue which didn't prevent the...

    Limited dealers, long wait times for repairs...

    This dealer is definitely an issue though. Purchased a Triumph Tiger from them and they messed me around pretty badly. Took my business to another dealer and I was very happy with them and their service (Martin Moto - Exceptional dealership). That's the issue with Guzzi...if my dealer sucks, he...

    Limited dealers, long wait times for repairs...

    *Note – This is a short rant. My V7ll Racer with 4k miles on the clock has been in the shop for 4 weeks now, just for a rear drive leak. I've basically missed some of the best riding weather the North East has to offer and I'm not happy at all. The closest Guzzi dealer is Eurosports in PA and...

    Looking for testimonials on the V7 Racer, either mark II or III

    For me, the V7ll Racer is one of the more comfy bikes I have ridden. The forward lean is just enough to be engaging without being tiring. I’m 6ft and have a 32 inseam. The one thing I love is that my knees never ache on this bike. On my Street Triple and Speed Triple that I owned, my knees...

    V9 vs V7 III Special vs T120

    I absolutely love Triumph and Guzzi. I've owned multiple of each stable. But...of my 3 Triumphs (Street, Speed, Tiger) and the many thousands of miles I clocked on each, I never had one issue. My V7 on the other hand, which I adore is a little more temperamental and after 2000 miles and 6...
