#motoguzzi #v100mandello #v100ownerreview - Auta a dopravní prostředky
Hi, I got mine in May this year, rode it 5000 km so far, and I couldn’t be happier. The look, the power, the handling, the sound, the build quality, the confort.... it checks all boxes. I strongly recommand ! Thanks for your video.
I love this bike very much! Thanks for your reply!
Sat on a V100 first time the other day…bike much smaller than I thought it would be.
how tall are you? @@ApriliaRacer14
Geweldig ik herkende meteen de straat waar je uit kwam:) heb familie in die wijken er achter wonen :) leuke reviews :) leuk om deze reviews een keer te zien uit onze platte omgeving :)
Dank voor je reactie!!
It looks stunning
Thank you!
Beautiful bike congrats.. I own a V850 Special love Guzzi's always feels special when you go for a ride and even just to look at them in the garage lovely :) Pete
Yeah that’s the nice things about Guzzi’s!
Have 10,000km on mine without a single problem. Some things like getting through menus are a pain as you can't back up if you overshoot. Grip heaters not the greatest but rest of bike is amazing. Love it!!!
I agree!
Sorry to hear about the few problems with your V100, hope that oil leak didn't keep it down for too long. As for mine (purchased July 20) I have done about 2400 kms so far and have no problems to report. The engine which was noticeably tight for the first 1000 kms or so has broken in nicely and is happy to rev and seems to run cooler as well. First service was done around 1600 kms and I supplied Motul 7100 synthetic oil for the dealer to use.
Thanks for the tip about using the mode button to quickly get to the screen adjustment; I don't believe this feature is mentioned in the owner's manual.
Thank you. It was absolutely no problem it was very minimal and rode with it for 1500km.
I can’t wait to see your review of your Volcano Industries custom seat for the Moto Guzzi V100 Mandello “S” motorcycle!
Thank you! Stay tuned!
Certainly pleasant on the eye.
Indeed mate
Best looking bike out there.
Thank you for your reply!
Leuke review! V100 ziet er mooi uit, wellicht iets te netjes voor mij ;-)
thx voor de roadlok link. Zal ook goed op mijn Griso passen en een hele nette oplossing zo!
Dank je! Ja het is echt een aanrader, gebruik het op al mijn motoren met radiale remmen. zou helemaal tof zijn als je mijn link gebruikt dan help je mijn kanaal hier erg mee!
Een lokale dealer staat op hun site zag ik... gaat even duren want eerst een beetle map en rollerisen. hij staat op grisoghetto (barnfind).
My v100 is put away for the winter but I didn't have any issues before then. I'm impatiently waiting for March when I can take it out again.
I can imagine! Mine will be put away in a couple of weeks also.
So far i owned 8 bikes and everyone of them had it's own little problems. My v85tt is my second MG and i enjoy it very much even with it's little problems
Its how the problems are managed!
I’ve a v7 850 and have had both an eagle badge lift at the end and a v7 badge lift on the side pods. Both were replaced under warranty. Either Guzzi is using very old badges with very old tape, or they aren’t cleaning the surface properly before application.
Yeah, I agree.. Let's call it character
Gorgeous bike. Seriously considering one but I'm coming from the world of Ducati and my last bike was a Multistrada 1200 S so I'm also considering a new Multistrada.
Both are great choices!
Those golden rims, did it come like that from factory? I see on their website that for the S version they're black, which sucks.
He made a special order to have the gold rims installed. I don't know if the dealer decided to switch the rims between two different bikes or he ordered a new set.
I had the dealer swap it indeed!
Thank you for the review. Just one thing, as a cyclist and a motorcyclist, I would recommend NOT getting so close to bikes when passing.
Thanks for your reply. The GoPro gives a different view than reality.
First year production always has a few bugs. It just gets better.
I agree! thanks for your reply!
Never buy a 1st year bike...or a lockdown production one
What model year is your bike? At this moment, the v100, eitj that color scheme is only available with black rims. Have you changed the rims?
it is a 2023 and I asked the dealer to switch the rims!
And how much it cost, if i may ask?
Hi, I’m thinking of purchasing this bike. All the reviews I’ve seen and read mention having issues with the quick shifter. Does it get any better or worse over time? Or has Moto Guzzi released an update to correct the issue?
Thanks
I think it's not an issue at all. You do notice some clunkiness but that's mainly in lower revs. But I think it's not any better on a GS for example. For really good QS you need to go to KTM or Ducati.
@@droommotor Thanks. I appreciate the information. I’m going to look at the bike the weekend.
@@neilborgognoni4256 Enjoy!
I am surprised that the decals are not under the clear coat it will be an issue even after replacement.
Yeah. I am going to change then anyway
Hi! I didn't catch who makes your new upgraded windshield? Would you be able to reply with the link to it please?
Sorry for my late late response you can find the windshield at shop.droommotor.nl
I ended up getting my the OEM touring windshield, works great and looks great!@@droommotor
@@MrUX-cb4wn that's also a good choice!
Can I ask how you got an S with gold wheels, they are sold in the UK with only black wheels.
You should check my other videos! I had the dealer switch them 😲
Just got my V100. Thanks for the windscreen mode button tip; I’ll try next time I ride.
*I am looking for a tank bag. What is yours, and do you like it?
Thanks, from Colorado.
It’s the epic tankbag from Hepco and Becker ! I feature it in my mod video on my channel.
@@droommotor Thanks. Yes, I saw that after I posted the question. On order!
@@droommotor I received my Epic tank bag, but I was sent the incorrect Lock-it tank ring! Could you tell me the correct SKU number that fits the V100 Mandello S? I would greatly appreciate it! I'm having trouble communicating with supplier and am returning the incorrect one. Thanks!
@@greg9076 Hi! Im sorry I did not receive any notifications if someone replies. Did you already succeed with finding the correct one?
@@droommotor yes, thanks.
Talking about stickers falling of? I should introduce you to my Yamaha MT-07! An honest bike with a mediocre building quality. Man... these are no problems!
As for the refinement of the bike with the more kms you do, this is natural, and big European engones are famous for taking longer time to "open-up". But if you ask me, this is a good thing in the long term.
Thanks for your reply!
I wanted to buy this bike but facebook group has too many issues reported for a bike with premium price. I know myself and i would be too disappointed and it would turn my hobby into a headache. Thanks for the video.
The issues are really minor in my opinion! You have to remember that people with issues post it on the net. And people without post nothing. When I shared this video on the Facebook group a lot of people were keen to share that they had 0 problems with the bike. So I would definitely recommend to try it! Thanks for your comment.
@@droommotor it is very new at the moment so quality will only get better thats my assumption. I took a chance this summer with a KTM and had to get a buy back. This is how I realize that having issues on my bike was too frustrating for me to handle. I ended up buying a vstrom800de no issues so far but well off course it doesn't have the look of the mandello.bthats the thi n g with jap bikes, their looks is not that appealing and that applies for all the bike types. I still got the exteded warranty from suzuki, 5 years for $400 dollars. Good to have that piece of mind. Cab warranty be extended for the mandello?
I just put my V100 up for the winter with 5295 miles on it. It has been 100 percent trouble free. The speedometer is not accurate, but yesterday my top speed was 148 mph so that's more like 138 to 140 mph. I say Rock On ! Oh I also took a 2200 mile trip through the mountains of South Eastern United States and the bike was fantastic.
@@derekperry9139 What do you mean that the speedometer is not accurate? Do you compare it with the speedometer on google maps, let's say, and you get a slight difference between the two?
@@vasileioskk ride your bike with a GPS on board and you will see. Also here in New York we have radar road signs that show your speed as you come into a village. My village has 2 of these.
So to remove the alternator cover and put in a new o-ring they had to remove the engine from the frame?!?!
No they did not but they did take a lot a apart
Hi. What isotta widnscreen do you have, medium or high? When the windscreen is deployed, what is the high from the display top edge to the windscreen top edge?
it's the low '' sport' version its better than original a little bit taller. I need to measure it for you.
Not really sure why you changed the discs to something worse than OEM. The V100 uses the same rotors as the Aprillia Tuono V4 and that thing's a beast.
What makes you think these discs are worse than OEM?
❤guzzi😊
Me too!!
heb je al wat meer km gereden en wat zijn je ervaringen, ik heb de Stelvio namelijk in mijn gedachten en dat is hetzelfde blok
Ik zou het sowieso gaan proberen! Ik ga hem zelf zodra die in NL is ook testen en vergelijken met de Mandello
@@droommotor half maart! en op de beurs maar even proefritten
what windscreen is that? your experience even with the O-ring has been far better than mine.
Isotta windscreen!
Guzzi's were great great bikes in the 70's but had more issues than BMW's and Ducatti;s.
I can imagine.
Why did you buy it, when you don‘t ride it?
2222km in 5 months?😅
It was 4 months I miscalculated. But as you have maybe noticed. I have a CZcams channel with 3 personal bikes. and I also do test rides every week. next to a full time job. So there ar not many hours left in a day. But thanks for your question.
Imagine if you could uncrate a 1967 Moto Guzzi V700 to compare the difference between what issues they had then and now.
I could only imagine
@@droommotor my dad had a 67. The biggest issue was probably the valve diameter size to intake port/manifold/carb ratio being incorrect. A port reducer kit w/ updated manifolds became available I think in 69. His also had tank paint damage during shipment where the dealer had to touch it up.. a lot! Apparently there were a few bikes like that. Some 67's had transmission input shaft misalignment to flywheel. Final drive had the tendency to overfill the gearbox. Later models came with an improved gearbox output seal. Some of the early bikes had a weld on the swing arm that would fail. The fork springs were a bit on the strong side. Then beginning in 69 fork springs were changed to too soft. This led to a few high-profile high-speed wobble accidents. 67 Seat was too soft. Would bottom out after an hour. Ambo seat was perfect. Eldorado seat too hard! The 67 also had a shorter frame. Later on they had extended the steering head slightly further forward.. it seemed some non-stock bars would either hit the updated Ambo tank or fender bracket would get too close to the belt cover with the new softer springs.. or both.
Apart from the oil leak, the rest of the issues are minor even thought you get sort of disappointed for a premium bike which costs a fortune.
Personally, I have a minor issue on the left flaps. Both the green and black stickers of the flap were not cut perfectly and you can see a small white line of the unpainted part of the sticker. Luckily it is so small you need to stare at them closely to see them. The mechanic said that this will be difficult to get a replacement free of charge since it was not submitted prior delivery to the owner.
One last minor issue is the front right brake disc which has a slight slack when you force it left and right. The mechanic told me this is normal after several KM of use, floating brake discs tend to have some slack on the outer disc after some time, but since the bike is pretty new (had 725KM in 2 weeks!!) we sent a request to have it replaced under warranty. MG accepted the request and will have it replaced on the 1.5K KM service!!
Till now the bike is working flawlessly and without issues, except from the brake disc.
Thanks mate for your clarification. I also have some defects in the paint.. But I address that to being ''hand built'' and I wil accept the charm.
やっぱりゴールドホイールが似合うね🐕
indeed mate. I love the gold wheels.
It’s a shame. A new bike, in this day and age, should not be leaking oil. They’ve built variations of this motor for bloody years. You’d think they’d nail it now.
I think it’s very minor and probably caused by overtorqing . And what i have seen I am the only one with this issue
This is a brand new motor in its first official year on sale. It doesn't share many parts with other air cooled guzzi engines.
Not good for a new bike...I had a 1200 Stelvio...problems after problems...happy day when I sold it.
I think it’s very minor. Just a factory defect and I have seen no one with this exact issue yet.
I really want to like moto guzzi.........they are still jus not there for me.
I understand
Jesus, in this day and age, a Moto-Guzzi leaking oil is normal...? Italian build faithful to its reputation, then.
Luckily I'm one of the few!
The requirement to take apart the whole bike to change an alternator gasket is enough to steer me away from this bike. I also understand that the engine and the transmission have to be separated to change a clutch or T/O bearing. Not very good engineering at all.
I did not know about the last fact. Interesting to know! Thank you
Far too redundant, so many reps… sorry, come straight to the point, won't you?
At least a lot of people liked the video 😊
Trash video but great bike, mmine has 68,000 miles on it. 4 sets of tires thats it i delivery documents all over Texas.
Trash comment, who asked..
Thanks for your wonderful and thoughtful comment! But wow 68000 miles in less than a year? How did you do that?
instead of be nervous with small details ... ride your bike ... ride it for Christ sake ....
Am I nervous?
Peeling decals are not a small detail on a brand new bike.
what is peeling -- i dont know ---@@RandomGRK
