Let’s hope the 100-mile engine failure is easily sorted out
Ouch !! As long as you’re not broken like the bike. Us humans take longer to repair, (especially when we are older).

Main thing is that you are ok, bike is replaceable

Hi folks, picked up mine a couple of weeks ago. Glad to be back on a Guzzi
Wasn't necessarily going to buy one of these so soon, but I've been in love with this colour scheme since I saw it, took one for a ride a month ago, got a great trade-in offer for my other bike, and here I am!
Cheers

Howdy, and as I always say, congrats and welcome to the GT Forum, and (back to) the Guzzi Famiglia. Sure you're going to enjoy it. I hope you'll add the rest of your info for the first post of this thread, and hope to see you posting often. Cheers.

Thanks Todd. Oh, I guess you mean the following: 2020 V8TT Rosso Kalahari, city = Masterton in New Zealand, DOP = 28th September. Is that what you're after? Cheers.
Indeed on all, thanks.

Long time lurker, first time poster and my first Guzzi.
Brought home a V85TT Travel in Sand this past Friday. No pic yet, but the VIN: ZGUKWUA03LM000064, acquired on 9/18/20.
Patiently waiting for the full exhaust and ECU flash.

My first V85 got destroyed at 3600 miles last June by someone with a Mercedes SUV, a novel interpretation of how Stop signs work, and a firm but soon-to-be-disproved belief that two objects can occupy the same space at one time. But members of my tribe do not so easily concede defeat, and we bring you...
V85 Number Two!
VIN ZGUKWU004LM000222
Now I have to do that tedious 900 mile break in period all over again. Sigh...

I'm glad you're OK after the incident with V85TT #1, good luck with #2.

Thanks for the good wishes. Fortunately Guzzis are tough! As are the OEM engine bars. Number 1 sacrificed one to save my leg, for which I will forever honor her. As i noted on the Advrider forum, these bikes seem to be designed by the same people who did Roman galleys back during the Punic Wars. "Mercedes delende est!"Thanks goodness you're still around to do another break-in! Enjoy round 2!
Traded in the V7 and the Capo for 2020 V85 ZGUKWU005LM000603. Only a few miles, but very pleased so far! Pics to follow.
Great picture and my favourite colour
