I received the mounting kit for the box today.

Looks great and ready for some long tours!
I do like the side panniers, but that top case looks like it was hit with the ugly stick. I opted to not order it with my bike, felt like I'd be riding around in shame and wouldn't be able to take my helmet off. 
I never worry too much about how a bike looks (or how I look) as long as the thing is practical and comfortable. I usually buy a bike that looks good and then cover it in dirt within a week.
But I do have to admit that the bike looks better with the top box off. That thing is high up and way to the back of the bike. It's only about three seconds to remove the box or about five seconds to put it back on. How often the box is on the bike will depend on how well it handles cross winds and the vortexes around the trucks.

German made, and one of the best for brightness (my favorite below), along with Rizoma; Which they are working on a big release including CNC valve cover upgrade. We are a dealer for both on the STORE tab above. If you don’t see it, CONTACT us via the GTM website.Thanks, wow 60 Quid eachDave ….. on the red one
I’ll start a new thread when Rizoma releases the new line for the V100.

One of the best safety items I have purchased is a brake free brake light that mounts on your helmet
Charge seems to last three to 4 days of riding and is very bright and it’s a sensor , it comes on when you close the throttle and start to slow
So not dependent on your brake levers .

Interesting but I don’t think drivers will make the leap. Nobody expects a brake light on your head…
well other bikers who follow me love it and a little old lady came up to me and said ,I was following you and could see when you were slowing down by the light on your helmet ,so there.
Hey that’s encouraging! The people in Ohio, not so intelligent…. They don’t see flashing brakes lights no matter what. It’s unbelievable.
The problem I have with the accelerometer is this. My buddy got a light kit for his Stelvio. It bolts onto the lower holes of the license plate frame and is bright as hell with about 100 LED’s that function as combination brake and turn signals. It’s really nice actually.
It has an accelerometer function too. Every time he rides in front of me and is accelerating and shifts his BMW R1200RT, the damn thing flashes as it thinks he is experiencing sudden deceleration during the clutch squeeze shifting point where acceleration stops for a split second. This makes for a seriously distracting erroneous flashing! I don’t like this all.
If they don’t have this issue with your gizmo, that would be cool.
Has anybody followed you to confirm that the accelerometer function is working as expected? It would be worth a follow to see.

Installed this Biondi Touring windscreen in "smoke" tint after re-installing the bodywork after I finished the coolant leak repair. I rode with it first time early this morning and I like it at the lowest setting at the speeds I was running up to about 50 mph and a few short blasts in the canyon to about 90, and does a better job than the OE windscreen. There was more wind blast in the uppermost position at 50 or so mph like the OE screen, and will try it again when on the highway at speed 70 - 85 mph.

I always laugh when people ask about weight savings on component’s to the nearest ounceI believe Mistral says 1kg weight saving. Most of the weight is in the CAT under the belly, not in the can.
I saved 20 lbs weight on my bike by going on a diet!! (25# more to go!!)
️Loose a couple of kilos and it’s free and might save your ticker
And performance gains from only a slip on muffler are slim to none, other than making noise...... I personally like the OEM sound, it's classy.... Think I'm going to drop a duece, tomorrow I'll be faster...I always laugh when people ask about weight savings on component’s to the nearest ounce

Hello Katie. I'll be interested to hear how you get on with the taller screen. I'm thinking of getting one for winter, more for the extra width, rather than height.
Hello all, this is my first Guzzi, and it is the V100 Mandello S Verde!
I am the first owner in Sweden who got a V100 out on the streets, so a bit special feeling.
No pics yet on details, but I got following extras so far:
Central stand
USB front connector
Engine block guard
Front fender extender (the shorter alternative)
Engine header protection (OEM aluminum)
Fork protectors
Hand guard protectors (dismantled in this warmer summer temperature)
…and inner bags for the side cases on its way
Will probably invest in a radiator guard in the future, and all seems complete!
All set for use years ahead!

Hi, works fine really, a bit more protection than the std screen, in 5' 11" ish and I still get some rain and blast on my helmet but its a lot better and I dont particualrly want one of those large sail like screens I have seen.
Also forgot to mention I have Rad protector and Dash protector fitted as well. I will remeber more in a bit.
Oh yes I have the Gutsibits plugs fitted as well to cover the frame bolt positions.... Dont think there is much more I can fit...
