Title: Got a new bike
Post by: DTTW on Sunday, 18 May 2025, 06:53 AM
So... I've ridden the 14 for the past 13 years soon, and for the past few years I've had the idea of putting her on an early retirement so to speak. Another bike was needed for this obviously, but it has been quite a long journey and I've not rushed into it.

Few weeks back I found out of Moto Guzzi V7 and that was it. The same feeling when I first saw the 14... I needed to have one. So I'm now a proud owner of Moto Guzzi V7 Special 2023. Lovely ride overall, very different from the 14 but strangely they share something in common.

I've read good reviews on the V7, reckon it's one of the best MG's you can get.   Your R&B 14 looks way to nice to be retired!  Should be our being ridden & shown off.   :onya:

You know those Italian bike's, they might need a jump start every now and then to get things cracking.  :grin:

Well, Suzy haven't let me down, except once, but that was my fault... and the reliability on the V7 is still yet to be shown, so might be that the 14 is my daily ride after all.  :lol:

I went for the same brand, but a V100, so far so good.
Enjoy your new ride.
