I went and checked out a Moto Guzzi V7 yesterday. Cool bike, but its too small! If it was about 15% larger in all dimensions it would be great. Not terribly impressed with the plastic tank. I know plastic is here to stay, but this thing felt flimsy. At least the Ducati tanks have some rigidity to them. The guy was honest with me, the Guzzi bikes also suffer from the 'ethanol expansion' problem (ethanol, not found in EU fuel, causes the tanks to expand and get mushy).
Anyone have an FI Bonneville? Curious to hear if anyone has lived with one for a while.
