NEW TIRES FOR THE V7-850

Thanks for the recommendation.

Just had the Mutant mounted on my bike this morning.
Due to heavy rain this morning, I didnt get to ride agressively. Nonetheless, I ended up riding 70km on them. They immediately inspired confidence, which i did not expect (new rubber + rain usually = riding on ice)

Cant wait to put them through their paces.

I'm excited to see these modern Dunlop Z-rated radials will be available in 110/80-18 & 150/60-17. I'll try to keep a set of these in stock at my shop in Orange. They are also available in the larger/big bike sizes (i.e. 120/70 & 180/55-17).

Any tires you would recommend for the same bike, but, for gravel and road?

Unfortunately I am not sure that the v7 850 is homologated in size 110/80, and for insurance this is important, in europe.

I have an early V7 850 and my registration card have only the 100/90 - 18 for the front (I'm in Europe, too).
The latest V7 850 came with a different registration card that reports also the option to mount the 110/80 - 18 in the front.
The options should be 110/80 R18 58V M/C for the front tyre.
And 150/70 R17 69V M/C for the rear.

You can contact Moto Guzzi support that will direct you to a Piaggio website page to request the document (clearance, authorization) to update your registration card with also the new sizes/options (it requires a fee, obviously).

I'm taking this route, so then I can go with radial tyres 110/80 in the front.

Hope this helps all the early V7 850 european owners
 
I had TKC 70 on my ex. Africa Twin. Great grip, also in rain. Quite silent for dual sport tires. Feel a bit stif to turn into the curve, rear tire very sensible for longitude scratches on road (from snow ploughing).
