My Moto Guzzi V7. Does it smell like pizza or is it just me?

I went to the IMOT show in Munich last Sunday with my friend Simon, my daughter and her boyfriend. Look what we found there:



A Bellagio 940.

That's the California 1400 at the far right. I sat on it and was surprised how light it feels. It's a big bike!

And speaking of which, the first of the shirts arrived with today's mail (post), and I wore it all day around town. It really is an excellent quality shirt, like something right off the rack from a department store. Pictures of us in our TMW threads will be forthcoming.

That is GREAT that the shirts arrived and you love it! They really are good quality eh? I figured if someone would shell out their hard earned money on a T-shirt they might as well get the best quality I could buy. I've worn mine for over 5 years now and while the logo is a little faded from dozens of washings the T-shirt shows little sign of wear.

Can't wait to see a photo of you in it! That would be awesome.

Ah, so neat! I would suggest taking ANY Moto Guzzi out for a quick ride, if you think they are neat looking, just wait till you revv it up and ride. They have charater and class all to themself.

Simon (seated on the Bellagio) bought my old Nevada 750. When we go for long rides we often switch bikes, and while I now find the Nevada tiny, it feels smooth and refined in comparison to my clunky Harley. When I win the lottery I'll have several bikes, and a Guzzi will be one of them.

That is such an awesome line! You should trademark it!!!

Ah, now if I won the lottery I think my previous motorcycle line-up might have some changes in it due to the new Guzzi love. I would start considering some bikes that may not have been on my list before, after all, I wouldn't even have considered a Guzzi if I didn't test ride one... maybe I'm missing out on some other spectatular bikes out there too?

If I won a lottery I'd have a bike custom made to fit me.

Not a bad idea! Altough, it's pretty easy to get a seat reshaped and a little more for custom pegs...

YESSSSS I am now the very proud owner of a V7 Stone!

I am more than well pleased with it, even though I have not done lots of mileage today, but enough to know that we are going to get on very well together.

As for the smell - Not pizza, more a bleachy sort of a smell for mine.

A BIG Congratulations!!! Now go and start your blog!

Oh, and we want photos.

My motorcycle got sick on the weekend and I had to take it in. MPH Cycles fixed it under warranty over the weekend and it is ready to be picked up.

Part: Release Bearing.

Symptom was clutch whine when in gear at a stop.

Next is it's 1000 mile service.
