Fred. Heated grips are a no-brainer - they'll be on every bike I ever own. They also mean I can use my summer gloves all year round. I had the Oxford grips dealer-fitted to my brand new V7III and they work great.
These guys sell their own version - I got the longer cable option so that it sits on my handlebars.

It's interesting that you say this - I haven't much experience of other V7iii's. But on hot days in city riding, the heat coming up from the engine is quite intense and noticeable more than the Roamer. I assumed any issue with heat would show up in the testing and analysis the dealer did with...
It seems so. They've already replaced one sensor that was faulty. They also replaced both exhaust headers on account of the paint fading away. I worry that I have a lemon.
They had it for a day. Their feedback:
Our technical team spent some considerable time in contact with the dealership on...
Been repeatedly seeing the dealer about this. Their mechanic was on the phone for hours with the Guzzi tech trying to resolve this issue. In the end, they sent the data to Mandello. Waiting to hear back. Light came on for a few days and then went off again a few days later. It's pretty maddening...
I have the Agostini on mine. Dealer-fitted. There were some questions about the fitting in terms of the gap between cylinder head and crash bar - but Agostini confirmed this is intentional. They use these on their rental bikes.
Has anybody made a comparison of these - as far as I can see, the options are the Dart Marlin (£90), the Guzzi OEM (£165) and the above mentioned Givi which I cannot find a price for.
Oddly, I was there, albeit on the top deck of a bus going up Park Lane - to collect my V7 from the dealer down the road in Shepherds Bush. Looks to be more than just a ride in support when one of the city's main thoroughfares is brought to a standstill - was this intended all along? And in...
"Soldier F gave evidence anonymously to the Saville Inquiry in 2003 and admitted firing 13 rounds on Bloody Sunday.
His assertion that there were "gunmen and bombers killed" was rejected in Lord Saville's report.
The Saville Inquiry stated that there was "no doubt" Soldier F had shot...
I had a V9 Roamer for a year before switching over to the Stone iii. The engines are similar, but the V9 has noticeable extra low down grunt. The V9's have nice extras like USB socket and all metal finish. The V9 feels a little bigger and the footpegs are further forward which means you can...
My dealer recommended sticking with the stock OEM Pirellis on account of the system needing to be reset by riding for a mile at the same speed - not easy in the centre of London...
Need new tyres for Stone iii and just checking on the options:
Bridgestone B45
Conti RA3 (radials)
Pirelli MT-60's (front radial and rear cross ply)
Stock Demon Pirelli
Is there any consensus on what's best? Mostly to be used for urban runabout/commuter/
No worries! I am right in the centre - just behind Westminster Abbey.
In terms of dealers, Central Bikes are good. Laurie, the mechanic, is really helpful. He's helping me get my pipes replaced under warranty on account of the paint coming away. Interestingly, he also said you can buy add on...
