Hi Guys, i have recently purchased a V7 Special 850 "Blu Formale". I also ride a Suzuki GSF 650 SA "Bandit", which i primarily use as a means of transportation now, also a great bike, but it holds no candle compared to my V7.

The Guzzi was love at first sight. I was just there to test drive a V9 Bobber "Special Edition", as i was primarily interested in that bike.

However, i also have test ridden the blue V7, which in hindsight was a great decision. I instantly got addicted to the bike and purchased it on the spot. Much better ergonomics and the chrome is just great.

I is great looking and driving with one minor caveat: it scrapes hard parts far too quickly. I recognized that after scraping a little bit of my exhaust, adjusted my pace a little bit, and now riding is just pure bliss.

My first service is due after just two weeks as it is addciting as hell and i couldn't stop riding it. I noticed some minor things that i will ask about in the forums but apart from that everything is just perfect.
