Hi Fido. Your V7 does look very nice indeed and as an owner of a V50, I know you are going to enjoy riding it immensely. One accessory I recommend you should fit immediately though is a “fender extender†or long mud flap to keep the road muck of that lovely engine. If I owned it, I would also want to fit normal silencers (still Guzzi lookalikes) because as far as I know the Guzzi V7 has catalytic converters which just waste about 5-10% of fuel and power + the extra weight. The benefits would easily outweigh the cost of the new silencers so the quicker you change the more quickly you will get back the cost although I guess you will have to wait for the warranty to expire, unless you fit the originals back for any service required. The fuel injection lambda sensor should compensate automatically for fuel mixture changes.
