That's true, but Guzzi is not a Japanese company... :mrgreen:Mi_ka said:...
Carefull! This way you are throwing away the last 20 years of evolution of Japanese crotch rockets!

Paxo said:Yes, yes, yes...all very interesting (No not really). Instead of all this theoretical stuff about who's right and who's advice to believe, just ride the bloody things, check the oil and if it needs it put some in. That's how it works in the real world for those who ride the bikes and don't just talk about them!
You have a point, but I don't think their are all that many new SB in the US. Guzzi is much more carfull about the number of bikes they bring over now days. We may not get the new modles tell late in 12, but I'm sure they will be coming.foggy95 said:I know its been discussed ad nauseam, but here are a couple of links to a website with possibly some more tech info, and a few good pics, which can be 'zoomed' for great detail. Clearly shows the new aluminum (aluminium?) rims on the V7 Special. I kind of have my doubts that this 'new & improved' version will be coming to the States any time soon, the dealers would never be able to unload the current stock, at any price.

I would like to know this too. The additional fuel capacity would be nice.

I don't mind the Heron heads and the sequential torque output, which may be one of reasons for me to stay put to my li'l Breva. Many seems to do, as they are limiting the power output. The torque output for the HH SBs are however not impressing for the size of the motor, in comparison to other, even smaller, 2-cyl motorcycle motors. :dry:
What I really would like to see are the real specs and tecs of the "new" SB, not pages of assuming and guessings. :evil:

You're really, really, trying to suck the fun out of guesstimating things aren't you?
