PJPR01 Posted November 7 Posted November 7 (edited) Oh I'm in trouble now...look at the blue V100! Just lovely! Have to say that the V85 gets better looking each year...nicely kitted out for adventures and still very stylish. Edited November 7 by docc docc added image 2
guzzler Posted November 7 Posted November 7 I still don't know what to make of this new V100.... But the blue does look good on it though. Cheers 2
Bill Hagan Posted November 7 Posted November 7 Yes, the blue is great. With some of my stash of various Carabinieri decals on it, it would look even better ... 112! Oh, and @audiomick, there is something fetching about "slightly bored looking" girls ... or, at least for me, that one. Bill 3 1
rosso corsa Posted November 7 Posted November 7 "De gustibus et coloribus etc", but I found this 2025 color combination for the V100S (and, most importantly, non-black-colored wheels!) most impressive 6

Coincidence on the styling, but nice back story to be sure. 1

p6x Posted November 8 Author Posted November 8 (edited) Sooo... from the city of lights, on my third day, and after watching all the videos on YT; As I thought, there were no real reveal for 2025 in Guzzi. The V7 Sport has inverted forks and a second rotor; however, they missed the mark with proposing what was for a very short while the fastest motorcycle when it was first introduced. They should have made it with the clip-ons. I felt like watching an Apple presentation, with new colors and slightly different screen sizes. Or maybe I am disappointed because I was expecting a mid-capacity new engine. Ducati introduced their new V2, non desmo. Edited November 8 by p6x 1

Phil To be honest I had to look hard to find it! Having said that I find both the V100 and V85 series eye-wateringly ugly so I’m not the right person to ask! 2 1

The Jurassic Park beak and more were first-class "No Fornicating Way" warstoppers for me. I feel very differently now that I own one. It's not that I especially like its looks -- tho I have become fond enough of it to overlook its "defects" of that sort -- but it is, for me, at least, a joy to ride. It does almost nothing (that I have found) better than any other motorcycle, but it does everything in a singularly compliant and pleasant way. Bill 4

Quite likely, given my remaining time on the planet, that I won’t hear any of it again. But I do appreciate the sentiment of “whatever you want.” Bill Edited November 8 by Bill Hagan 1
