Hi Jerry, well thanks for officially announcing yourself and posting on your bikes. If you're in N LV, our good long-time Guzzisti Tim is a good person to know. I'll try to get him to drop in here. Hope you'll add your info to our Registry below, and I may even copy your V7 II photo above over too. The V7-850 has a steady gathering from many people. If you want to improve it, we have tons of info in the V7 section HERE. Also, see the STORE tab top of every page. Hope to see you here often. Enjoy the site and the new bike.

V7 Registry & Picture thread -- ADD YOUR BIKE

Below is an on-going database of all V7 worldwide. Why? Just for the fun of it. If your bike isn't listed below, post a reply to this thread, and I'll add you along with a link to your post with a picture (hopefully of you and your bike, as they all look the same otherwise). If you've sold your...

Thank you for the acknowledgment.
I did look through the store tab, but it may remain stock.
With the upswept pipes, there may not be room to add Pelican 1170 side cases as on the V7II...maybe not even Apache 1800 as on my current XT250.
I just found where/how to change the zip code, as we just moved from NLV to Belen, NM.
Motopia in Albuquerque (Albuquerque Triumph) is only this month becoming a Guzzi dealer, otherwise I'd need to go to Tucson or El Paso.

Re Malibu, I was raised in the San Fernando Valley and raised our 4 kids in Simi Valley.
I do miss SoCal canyon roads.

Ah yes I bet you do... you lived the golden era here I bet. The Santa Monicas were heavenly even 20 years ago now, so I can only image further back. Now they are over-crowded and disastrous on the weekends with mindless canyon racers. You visited the Rock Store then I'm betting. It's still alive and well... below is from this past weekend.

 
After 61 years riding, 22 motorcycles, I have retired from riding, now age 77.
Only 5591 miles in 9 months, so mileage was slowing down, but the 2023 V7-850 was the icing on the cake!
