    V7 Classic - Guinea pig in my clutch

    Old thread iIknow,but I finally got around to changing the throwout bearing and push rod. First test ride today. So far the sound has not happened again. I compared the new and old pushrod and the old one had no signs of damage, but I put the new one in anyway. I will check in again when I've...

    V7 Classic - 17 inch front wheel?

    Hi, I'm aware of the Kineos and they do look great, however I'm not looking to drop £2k+ into it at this point. I definitely like the look of the V7 racer with 17" kineos on this site. Thanks.

    V7 Classic - 17 inch front wheel?

    Hi guys, About to have my wheel hubs repainted on my V7 Classic and wondering if there would be any benefit in going down to 17" rim while im at it instead of the standard 18". I like the look of a smaller front wheel but I'm also curious about performance/handling. Any knowledge on this...

    V7 Classic Monza Fuel Cap

    Hey guys, im considering purchasing this fuel cap for my 11' V7C.

    V7 Classic - Guinea pig in my clutch

    Hi, I plan to replace the throw out bearing once riding season is over here in the UK. I've found I can keep this issue to a minimum by just using neutral when I can rather than almost always just keeping the bike in gear with the clutch pulled in while at a stop. Doing this makes the sound...

    V7 Classic - Guinea pig in my clutch

    Hi, the bike has just passed 10k miles. it's been well looked after although I'm not sure how relevant that is in this case.

    V7 Classic - Guinea pig in my clutch

    Hey guys, I've got a funny noise coming from my V7 Classic clutch. Every now and then, when Ive got the bike in gear with the clutch disengaged (lever pulled), it makes a funny squeaky sound akin to a guinea pig (my best description). If I engage the clutch or put the bike in neutral and let...

    V7 Registry & Picture thread -- ADD YOUR BIKE

    Hi everyone. New Guzzi V7 owner and guzzitech member here. I purchased my first real motorcycle 4 weeks ago, a 2011 V7 Classic (2TB) with 8000 miles on the clock. I'm absolutely in love with the bike, and I've put over 2k miles on it already, we've had amazing weather here in the UK since I...

    2TB V7 Classic - occasional rough idle/stalling

    Thanks for your experience raven. I tried riding without the O2 sensor in earlier today, noticed no major difference in running and as predicted it gave me a nice yellow warning light (switched off again when I reconnected the sensor). Didn't experience any particularly poor running today...

    2TB V7 Classic - occasional rough idle/stalling

    Thanks for the advice, that would probably help. I must say that about 95% of the time, the bike runs and idles just fine as far as I can tell. Having done some more digging on here, I was going to see if removing the O2 sensor would make any difference. Is there anything inherently wrong or...
