Great bike can’t ride mine enough. Ignore the spec sheet there is plenty of power for today’s roads. It apparently takes 6 months for the gearbox to bed in. On mine the clutch is fine. It is an old school retro bike with the 21 litre tank. I get 195 miles before the fuel light comes on then there is a count up read out. The reserve is 4 litre so go for 40 miles . It’s not a sports bike and handles well. So much character and great for A & B roads and is good 2 up
2023 V7 Stone owner here. I liked your review. The gearbox gets better with time and use. Mine has got 17,000 miles on it already and it's only getting better.
I almost got this bike but ended up buying a Triumph T120...glad I did for extra power, but I also noticed a lot of plastic on that bike...felt a bit cheap to me
Always fill up a demo bike to the brim out of courtesy, but this was a demo day organised by Wheels Motorcycles and they were refilling the bikes up themselves. 👍🏻

Definitely full of character and I can see why people stay faithful to the Guzzi brand!
Really enjoyed your review and look forward to the next review.
Thank you!

Thank you! It was my first experience riding a Guzzi, and hopefully not the last! I can definitely see myself owning one in the future. 👍🏻

Very nice bikes, actually 66bhp for that model. They reward smooth progressive riding, get a flow on if you know what I mean.
oh yea, I do think it’s bad form to return a bike with no fuel, even though it’s a demo day. At least put a fiver in.

Thanks for the review. 66 hp en 75 nm of torque at 5000 rpm is enough two up with some luggage! Greetings from the Netherlands
