I went and got myself a shiny new set of Conti Road Attack 3's installed, only to find the very next day that there will be Road Attack 4's very soon. Ah well, on the plus side my home town has decided to pave miles and miles of roads over this summer and I have lots of brand new road surfaces...
I've put about 1500 miles on my Corbin seat, they definitely break in a little and get more comfortable. It's a real saddle. Makes longer distance rides a pleasure. For me the firmness level is just right. Pics in my profile if anyone wants to see it on my V7.
I have a bit of an odd question. I have invested in a Pit-Bull stand for my V7, and I love it. Is this 2-1 exhaust compatible with this stand? It doesn't appear to be, but I can't really tell and wanted to ask. Pit bull product code F0096-000, it has two forks that hold the bike up by the frame...
I kept thinking, something has to be clogged. Can't get any less complex than a vent line, especially once I spliced out that one-way valve. I kept noticing all the lines packed behind the starter, I just kept not wanting to pull it off. Ah well, at least it is fixed now and wasn't expensive to...
I figured that I should post this here, as it pertains to troubles that I originally attributed to the EVAP canister system on my bike.
Earlier in the thread I mentioned where I disabled the EVAP system, plugged the vacuum line, removed the one-way valve, etc. The main issue I was having was, I...
Oh I want a 820cc kit so bad! I keep thinking about it. There's so much I still want to do to this bike. 820 kit, the exhaust upgrade I've been discussing here, suspension upgrade, the bigger brake caliper upgrade... At some point I started thinking, why don't I just get a bigger bike? Well why...
It looks like I have a choice to make. I want an aftermarket exhaust and am quickly narrowing it down to GTM offerings, but I'm torn on what I want. A 2-into-1 exhaust gives performance gains in the low to mid range which is honestly where I spend most of my time. But I love the sound and look...
That is what I read, that they weren't too great in sand but sand is a different animal anyway. I don't want to get my V7 in sand or mud anyway, or really anything but roads in really great condition!
I just replaced both horns on my '14 V7 Stone with a Wolo 300-2T and 305-2T (high and low tones). I purchased a relay to use if needed, but I don't think it is going to be necessary. The new horns are loud, my bike sounds like a typical mid-sized sedan horn, with dual notes and like I said, it's...
They seem to do okay, and while I do like the look of the tires I don't like the ride all that well. These were the tires that came with the bike when I bought it, and seems the previous owner rode on gravel roads more than I. Personally, I kind of can't wait until I wear them out and have to...
The city I live in doesn't have any emissions testing for passenger vehicles, automobiles included. Plus, I don't plan to live anywhere that doesn't specifically exempt motorcycles. In my region, the only law for motorcycle exhaust is "it must have a muffler" but other areas may be (are)...
I disabled my EVAP, finally. I just plugged the vacuum line and replaced the one-way check valve with a splice fitting. The one-way valve was not operating properly, I don't think. When I removed the little check valve some really old dark yellow fuel escaped. Looked like it had been sitting...
Figured that since I've been posting here for a few weeks, I should introduce myself and my bike. First Moto Guzzi I have ever seen, let alone owned. I bought it from the original owner, sold new at Sloan's in Murfreesboro TN. Vin EM200229. Started life as a 2014 V7 Stone, but I changed out the...
I have a question or two about disabling the EVAP system on my '14 V7 Stone. The related hoses, as far as I can tell, consist of...
1) A vacuum line originating at the throttle body air ducting, supplying necessary suction, leading to the EVAP canister
2) A hose from the EVAP canister that...
Right now I have stock exhaust with a remap (for stock exhaust). The stock exhaust is very quiet, but I don't dislike the sound. My bike definitely runs better with the remap; it was not a night and day difference when I first tried it after the remap, but after a good long test ride I just kind...
I am only beginning to learn about the registration requirements of motorcycles, but with automobiles it varies widely from state to state, and even county to county within states. Obviously this is within the US.
Where I live, they don't do emissions testing. In the county I just moved from...
I did see your linked post, and reading it a few weeks ago is actually what helped me perform the task on my bike! That is one of the great benefits of a web forum, a helpful post someone took the time to write helps many people from that moment forward. When you wrote that post I didn't even...
