    Man, that is some beautiful scenery! Looks like a great ride.

    2016 V7II Stornello vent lines under bike

    I think you could probably get away with just raising the tank, but removing it is pretty straight forward. The only problem I had was that I pinched the vent line from the tank when I re-installed it.

    That is a Zard exhaust.

    Stornello on the trail - 9/23-9/25

    Nice looking updates. If you want a good idea of what is possible with a V7ii check this out, . I really enjoy my 1" over GTM 2WS rear shocks and the Mupo front kit.

    Stornello on the trail - 9/23-9/25

    @Scott Pisczek Thanks for the compliments! The handguards that are currently on the Stornello are Zeta Adventure Armor that I picked up from Langston Cycles. The fit is really good, no fab needed, I had to adjust the bend of the hand guard just a bit to get it to line up with the interior...

    Stornello on the trail - 9/23-9/25

    On the Stornello, if you got REALLY aggressive and wanted to fabricate some parts, you could probably drop some weight by replacing the rear suspension/sub-frame. But just by swapping parts, there isn't much to be gained. Maybe some lighter spoked wheels. You could swap forks, but not sure...

    Stornello on the trail - 9/23-9/25

    @tris Admittedly, my Stornello is running 1" over rear shocks and a front fork with the MUPO kit offered by Todd, it is still a "short" motorcycle when compared to the Enduro/Dual Sports I ride with. (As you can seen in the pictures). I have only come across a couple of places I didn't take it...

    Stornello on the trail - 9/23-9/25

    Thanks everyone. It was a great time. The Stornello did really well, just had to pick your lines. @GerryAZ I've not ridden a V85TT, but I suspect it would do pretty good.

    V7II luggage suggestion request

    For waterproof bags, I really love my Nelson-Rigg "Rigg Gear" bags. Durable, great warranty. As for racks, the H-B equipment Todd carries is top notch.

    Stornello on the trail - 9/23-9/25

    Hey Everyone, Thought I'd share some of the photos from my recent 3 day adventure ride on the Stornello to raise money for Veterans and high school student scholarships. This all takes place in Missouri and is an annual ride that I have been participating in for the last 4 years. It's a trail...

    Customizing my Stornello

    Just got a spare set of left and right lower frame rails along with a cross member. Now, I can build a good jig. No more climbing under the motorcycle for these guards.

    Brake Lever Contacts Exhaust

    Although I'm a bit partial to my Guzzi, yours is a beautiful motorcycle.

    Brake Lever Contacts Exhaust

    I'm not sure this is a possibility, but would a small adjustment in the brake lever solve the problem?

    Tank bag and paint protection

    Hey Everyone, I've been searching and researching information on a tank bag solution for my Stornello. Since I use my Stornello as a daily rider and as an ADV motorcycle, I want to make sure my decision isn't a detriment to the paint. There are a couple of solutions I am considering. One...

    I learned a good lesson through a grave mistake.

    I'm sure I saw these before, but didn't think about it. I know what the next GTM item for the Stornello is going to be.

    Customizing my Stornello

    I do have some pictures of the process. I am also getting ready to make a new version that takes into account those models with low exhausts. I have to modify the sides a bit to clear the O2 sensor. I also have a request for one that clears the sump extender. If all goes to plan, I'll have...

    Customizing my Stornello

    Thanks a ton for the compliments. The plate is made from 1/8" aluminum. I fabricated it by hand using the tools I had in my shop (drill press, jig saw, hand tools for metal working). The welding on the aluminum was by a local fabricator. I've since added a press brake to my shop for future...
