Corbin? I'd love one, but it's too expensive.

I own a single TB 2015 and weigh 235. just because it can doesn't mean you should.
Maybe you live in the mountains or somewhere with excessive heat, but around here 3k is seriously fine, not even remotely lugging it under most conditions.
Just cause it might be for you doesn't mean it is for everyone.
Riiight. Search bar time!160 is pretty good milage.
There's a whole thread dedicated to testimonies regarding the GTRX map tool. It's the best way to go.

Mileage depends on how much fuel he put in after that. My low fuel light comes on at exactly 4 gallons used so that's normally 200-220 miles.
As for the "best way to go" that might be because this website actively deletes alternate suggestions.
That may be true, but for me there was no V7ii alternative one year ago...and that looks to be the case presently.Mileage depends on how much fuel he put in after that. My low fuel light comes on at exactly 4 gallons used so that's normally 200-220 miles.

First 120mi. Impressions. First 40-50 mi. It shook like a dog shiting peach pits ! Keeping between 2.5&4k rpm . It smoothed out some in the next 50mi. & is getting smoother . suspension is punishing . Brakes aren't seated yet & I don't expect them to be as I hardly use them (all they do is sloe you down). Trans. & controls are fine . paint on my stone shows the price point strategy ,a minor issue as its getting painted this winter . I bought this as a lighter easier to maneuver bike to my BMW1200r ,so the suspension comparison is not valid. That said 100-600 mi. Isn't really time to form accurate impressions as things aren't even close to broken in,maybe tires. This is not my first Guzzi but you can't compare a 1980 vehicle to a 2016 of any kind bike,car ,aircraft etc. IHMO 25k is an adequate & thurogh period (BMW ECU's re-map @ this mi. ) that said consider this with the few grain of salt it's worth ! Why am I doing this ? I'm going riding sunny&45deg. Warming to 60 see ya!!
Reminds me of my old friend Al Gillen, who owned Williamsville Ducati in upstate New York...he sold Ducati, Moto Guzzi, KTM, Husqvarna. He was an old school guy, a little rough around the edges. A straight shooter, he told you exactly what he thought..I loved the guy (he has since passed).put some duct tape over that tach and go ride it like it's meant to be ridden. keep ridding it that low of an RPM and it might just fall apart.
Oops I almost forgot ,those short term factory flogs didn't catch the rash of thrust bearing failures.we can't be all things to all people. I just swing for the fences ,&do the best we can .
