Thanks for the links !!!

[roberto tenni]

This model was supposed to be available now but it's still not in the showrooms. Possibly ready for June/July.

Thanks biesel. I hope they sell a bunch of them.

 

The photos are huge. Being so big it's easy to spot things in the picture that would probably go unnoticed otherwise. Like a little rust on a brand new bike

[BRENTTODD]

Are they gona have a green with red frame color choice that would be sweet.

 

Good Luck God Speed

Bad enough that Piaggio is calling this the "V7 Classic;" they really ought to reserve the "telai rosso" color scheme for the big blocks!

[DeBenGuzzi]

what kind of mileage does this thing get? would it even make a practical commuter bike?

[Slavomir Musilek (R.I.P.)]

give it bigblock engine

give it spoked wheels

big tank

two adjustable rear suspension

better front forks than my V11 marzochiis

let it look so cool as now

make it big

 

and I am going to buy one right now.

and add clip ons!!

[jhh]

Anyone know if those spoked rims will fit on the V11?

[Paul Minnaert]

no these are baby wheels, look at tire sizes.

 

Make it big? well isn't that what the 1000s was? Or get a bellagio, put on new seat and v7 tank.

The current smallblocks get 50+mpg, don't they ? Add some long-lasting ME880 tires and I'd say it would make a nice commuter...

You're joking, me thinks...

 

Who would want a front 100/90-18 and a rear 130/80-17 on a V11 Sport/LeMans ???

They really should have used the big engine for this bike. They are missing a great opportunity to sell this against the Classic Series Ducatis. It does not stand a chance with the small engine.
