@Rboe - thanks
@Bioman, if you could provide a few links for new accessories, mostly rear and side racks, side panniers and engine crash bars.
Also, there is a lot of shop manual downloads but not a service manual/book 
Do you know if these spoke wheels are tubeless tire compatible , like our '17 CB?
Dealer could not answer that question.
Guzzi seems to have much better access to literature than Honda does??

Come spring I'd be surprised if they don't have a test ride event at a dealer near you. I went to one in my area last season at Blackman's in Emaus, PA and rode the V7. I absolutely loved it. The guy leading the ride wasn't poking around either, we were booking on some nice country roads and that bike was a joy to ride.

In Vaughan, ON go to Corsa Mec and be really friendly to them.

Heh, heh...it has never happened in my moto life to test ride a motorcycle before buying*...I just have an internal feeling/intuitions and sniffed out that it will be a good lump for me, and I have never been disappointed....identical story with both CBs*
* '13 CB was bought in January when -20*C/-4*F and snowing, '14 one was tested but it was just formality as I already had my '13...and with the red DLX, I was in such a hurry that I never check anything, including documents, VIN...etc, just relaying on forum member/Alain Lee opinion and talking/texting to the previous DLX owner.
I already know and accepted that V7 is a totally different animal then CB.

Spring, please come sooner this year

You'll definitely want to test ride a V7 before putting down the stash.
Booking opportunities should be good right now. Roads are dry and nobody is riding with -30C windchill [url=http://cb1100forum.com/forum/member.php?action=profile&uid=3454]PB. You should have the V7 for one to two hours all to yourself.

That would be a very cool excursion.
Ensure to check back in with the CB1100 Forum with a full report on what's happening with the 2022 Moto Guzzi V7*. Itchin' folks may wish to know.
Warning: Don't look at other Guzzis while there.
