Thank you all for the information supplied to my original post.

I am now the owner of a 2015 V7 in Gloss Red.  It should arrive at Hamlin Cycles in Bethel Ct on Friday and will under go "improvements".

Should be in my possion before end of month.

I will definitely try to make the MGNOC rally in New Hampshire - June 18 - 21 2015.

Congratu-fricken-lations!!    

The gloss red is particularly sweet.   Enjoy!

Thanks Rince, can't wait until her upgrades are done and get her home.

Unfortunately Sophia is not one of the V7 II bikes as they will not be around until some time in July  in the US (according to the guzzi dealer) and will be sold as 2016 models.

Looks great Gerry!  

Tell us about the "improvements"? Is that a Racer seat ya got on there? The red stitching looks stunning with the red tank!!!!

Paul,

Yes that is the seat from the V7 Racer.

Other mods are upgrade to front and rear suspension, extended sump, Arrow exhaust, MRA wind screen, Stelvio handguards,
Guzzi semi-rigid sides cases, Givi top case.

I'd love to the have the rearsets from the racer but I have to stop somewhere.

I'll be at the Bennington Triumph Bash end of May and the Guzzi Rally in New Hampshire mid june.

Maybe I'll see some of you in June.

Sharp looking bike Gerry! Congrats!

[Blunder]

Jeebuz but the paint looks like it's still wet!

Beauty!

Is it just me or have they put some stupidly sized front tyre on this thing? That would explain why it needs to have a brick under the sidestand! Why take a nice little jigger and turn it into a turd?

I think its an optical illusion. The black wheel makes it look fat, like the jeans my ex wears.

With all the horrible winter weather around here It told them there was no rush to get it done.

99% done.

I was at Hamlin's yesterday to pick up by bike and saw Gerry's bike in the shop.  All I can say is "wow!"  This thing is beautiful and tastefully set up.  I want one just like it.  Good luck in your travels, Gerry.

Ridge,

Thank you for the kind words.

What time were you at the shop?  I met a lot of new people there yesterday and just wondering of you were one of them.

I was there between 10:30 and 13:30
