If that fits a standard seat it might be a good place to keep a puncture repair kit.

Hey you are welcome, if I had any complaint about it I would say the paint job could be better , it kinda scratches up easy, that typical black paint swirl of scratches that one gets from cleaning etc. So if you have a good body shop or painter near you just buy the ready to paint version.Thx for the pictures Carl. In chatting with Daviz it sounds like the cowl will work with the 2-up seat which would make it perfect. I am wondering how well the fiberglass will hold up over time but I do like the look. He does some really nice work.
No covers/guards yet I'm afraid. I think Todd was mentioning he was waiting for the covers (think they arrived this week) and then they would be off to the painter. I suspect that will take the balance of this week so I am actually thinking I may get them later next week. If Todd read this he may comment for us.
Hi! Daviz Morales calling!
Sorry to hear that, Carl. I really don't do the paint job. Anyway, yours is the first complain I read about this issue. Anyway, I don't earn a penny with the painting, so I have just planned not to offer the painting as an option; yours is just the motivation I needed . Everybody should have a painter next to him to take the cover (or whatever) to get it painted, with the warranty of getting the required and desirable finish. So if during the travel the paint gets any scratch, I can't make anything to fix it... A problem for me and for the customer.
So, here I am if you or someone wants any info. I'll be glad to talk about.

Looks really smart like that.
Can I just ask, when you fitted the Arrow exhausts, did you have to do any remapping modifications or does it run ok without that hassle?
Thanks.
I read on the Guzzi website a while back that no remapping was necessary with the Arrow pipes. I tried to confirm with my dealer, but they were not clear on the matter. Check with your local Guzzi dealer.
I had the arrows fitted to my '15 Stone and originally did not get the remap done as it was deemed not necessary. I corrected that mistake after a summer season of riding.I read on the Guzzi website a while back that no remapping was necessary with the Arrow pipes. I tried to confirm with my dealer, but they were not clear on the matter. Check with your local Guzzi dealer.
Like most dealers, the two that I asked about this both said the same thing "We can't comment on any aftermarket parts. We would only ever advise that you fit genuine Guzzi parts". Not very helpful really.
I've bought Mistrals, not Arrows.
It was on the UK Guzzi website that I had read about the Arrows not requiring the re-map. Considering that their V7's were actually coming standard with Arrows, and in fact does with their new scrambler version, the dealers you spoke to sound like mine - uninformed. Gerry sounds like he hit the nail on the head though.
Hope you are enjoying your Mistrals though. Have you enjoyed them thus far and has your mpg dropped any?
