• Ciao Guest, The owner of this website and GTMotoCycles.com lost his home completely on the morning of January 8th in the L.A. Wildfire Storm. Most of his neighborhood is gone, and a few friends were killed along with their pets. The GTM SHOP and STORE are functioning normally, but we DEMAND EXTREME PATIENCE on orders as we are a SMALL business and Todd usually has his hands on nearly every order before it goes out. You can find more info on a post named L.A. Wildfires in the USA section. Our heart and best go out to everyone in this horrific disaster.

V100 Registry and Pic Thread

Looking at the number 000046, it should be the 46th produced bike? Seems odd to me that the factory keeps it that long in stock, but who knows.

Production runs were based on pre-orders, so it could be very likely that it was either customer requested (and declined) or dealer ordered for stock and it simply sat that long, or was kept in the crate and moved from the warehouse to the one you purchased from. Thanks for the post, and love seeing photos of the bike AND owners. Hope to see you here often. Enjoy/Proost!
 
Purchased 30/5/24
From Blacklocks Albury (Aust).

Unit Garage rack & Mistral Pillion peg extenders fitted so far.
Radiator guard and a few other goodies on order , along with genuine panniers which are 8 to 12 weeks away.

Couldnt stand the "Orange Gills" so covered them with black electrical tape to see what it would look like. Personally I reckon its 100% better so now its off to the sign writer to get them covered professionally.P6080377.webp
 
Photo from mid July on route to catch Hull to Rotterdam ferry and ride onto the Czech WSB round at Most. The first proper outing since completing the running in process.
The V100 was excellent during 10 days 2500 miles adventure. Comfortable during all day riding, quick enough to keep pace with friends on Tiger 1200, MT09, and XR1000. Agile enough to enjoy a few days carving through Germanys Harz mountains and returned mid 50's mpg throughout. As an aside there was a V100S on outgoing ferry parked in front of mine. Owner seemed pleased enough with his bike. Then on the return ferry a red V100 was similarly strapped down in front of my bike. Bizarrely the owner of this Mandello appeared during disembarkation and I recognised him as someone I used to work with 12 years ago! We spent so long talking about the old days that I didn't learn too much about his Guzzi history.

Thanks. Part of posting here is listing the VIN# and related for the first post of this thread, and you in the frame, otherwise they all look alike.

Fun story. Serendipitous events like this are miraculous sometimes! Hope you invited him to join in here. Look forward to seeing him here.
 
Hello,

Our V100 Mandello S is green, it was registered on 3-28-2023 and its chassis number is ZGUMGB003PM001152.

As extras it has the high screen, the comfort seat, the Guzzi side cases and the "small" V100 protectors.

For traveling we also put inner bags from the Motorbike Pasion brand and a tank bag and a SW Motech rear bag holder. We have done 7000 km and looking forward to many more!

Gasss!

Roger y Carlota.

30 years ago I used to travel light like that. Good on ya!!

Now, I carry all kinds of crap I don't really need, on bikes that are not meant to do so.
