Very sad look inside, showroom has dim lights despite nice bikes sitting inside...no traffic at all. A beautiful white California, with lots of chrome..but not what I want.
A guy inside was nice, so I just wandered around for 5 min a left.......do Guelph.
More to come
So sad.
So by dropping Piaggio they dropped the entire portfolio? (Moto Guzzi, Aprilia, Vespa, etc.)
Yeah, that leaves Two Wheel Motosport. That gives them a commanding position for these bike for the region.

RE: 2021 Guzzi V7 Special - peterbaron - 01-12-2022
Today, I visited Two Wheels Motorsport in Guelph, ON.
Gorgeous and spacy showroom - brand new store - very bright inside with lots of lights.
The 2021 MG V7 Special presents itself much better in this showroom than in a different store.
When I asked a salesperson about a '22 blue one, he told me that all are sold out, then he said that 2022 models might not be in blue???...confused...
Anyhow... testing not available until mid April, so I asked about sitting on it while idling, and this can be arrange with an older, 750cc model. Fine, better something than nothing, and at least I can move forward, lots of time and meantime, I have two CBs to ride.
Also, in the event of trading in my white STD, I was offer more for it than by a different dealer. Nothing concrete, just talking for now.

I hope you at least picked up one of those Moto Guzzi books.
RE: 2021 Guzzi V7 Special - GoldOxide_imp - 01-12-2022
lol - looks like Two Wheel Motorsport still don't fully light up the upper showroom floor. Used bikes get less respect.
I am unsure if I like the late model tank gas cap on the V7. I thought the older models of early 2010's were pretty cool. I wonder if something was wrong with them?
[url=http://cb1100forum.com/forum/member.php?action=profile&uid=3454]PB - did you sit on and run the older model? If so, how did it feel idling? Revving?

One notable feature of the past 10 years of V7 is the tank is solid. If you tap it, it almost feels like is it full of cement or Jello or sumthin'.
