    Ask your mechanic to connect to the diagnostic tool; even without any warning lights it may shed light on the issue. Good luck!

    V85TT issues and Loose Bits

    What size Allen key is required? Indeed it's bigger than "standard" but don't know the exact size to order. With Covid lockdown, I can't take the bike anywhere now, so need to order and have the key mailed to me. Thank you.

    V85TT Suspension Thread

    Hello Geese :) My rear suspension has some play. With my hand i can easily rotate it slightly left and right (the actual unit, not the spring). After a day of some rough riding (but fun!), it now squeaks with every movement like a very unhappy mouse is in there. I can manually rotate it anti...

    Shafted and betrayed by an Italian lover

    Thank you for your reply. No, warranty ended three months ago, else i wouldn't be too put out about the whole thing. To replace the final drive here costs in the region of $5000/£3600/€4000 hence my ruffled feathers - no longer an issue as explained below. So, what i noticed was that after a...

    Shafted and betrayed by an Italian lover

    Absolutely agree on both. Mainly me to blame for not fixing earlier, but certainly shouldn't leak like that on a new machine. For clarity, it didn't burn out. I didn't feel a thing riding. I asked them to check it so they drained the oil and little came out; what came out was "burnt". Not good...

    Shafted and betrayed by an Italian lover

    So, the Mistrals sound melodic as her motor rocks gently side to side; the Ohlins welcome any challenge and soak up the bumps without breaking a sweat, however, I was not expecting to be shafted and betrayed by her (V7 III Stone) as I was this morning. I popped in to the main MG workshop here...

    V7 III Suspension Thread

    Thanks all. I just fitted these. It was really straight forward and simple - except for one little question; the set came with 4 think washers/spacers. Are these supposed to go between the bolt and shock, or shock and frame? These appear to be model s36pl I found this for a HD...

    Thanks. That model says V7 classic/Stone and V9 so I think should be a good fit. Not spring for my weight so am on the fence...

    V7 III Suspension Thread

    Thank you so much. Extremely helpful. These are for 220lbs. My ride most of the time is solo without luggage at +-187lbs so I may just have to pass them up...considering. if I'm already looking to improve, I should do it properly. Thanks again, a huge help.

    V7 III Suspension Thread

    Friends, Guzzi riders, and others, I have an opportunity to pick up some Ohlins STX 36 Twin's for my V7III Stone. These are two months old and for a good price. Two things: 1. The current owner doesn't know what weight they're sprung for. 1.1 He weighs 100KG/220lbs and said they were "perfect"...

    V7 iii dipstick o-ring/double o-ring?

    Hello all, In short, i just checked the oil in my V7 iii. The good: Oil is beautiful, clear, and full The bad: I noticed a "flat" edged o-ring on the workmat and don't know if it's from the dipstick. I suspect it is as it's almost a perfect fit. In addition, there's a standard round o-ring on...

    V7 III Suspension Thread

    Hello All! Does anyone on here know if Bitubo 2s000281 rear shocks will fit a V7 III Stone without issue? On the WWW, everything i find is that it's for v7 II but alas, I do not know the technical differences between the two (re suspension mounts etc.) and I have a good opportunity to pick up a...
