About to scratch an itch - 2008 V7

[Ropey]

I'm going to view a tidy 2008 V7 this week in white with only 4000 miles and billed as showroom condition....

Before I head across... any guidance of what to look for?

Total tech numpty, appreciate anything to give me a steer....

Rust ....and oil leaks

He is pullin yer chain ,

Modern Guzzi,s are comparable with any Modern Motorcycle.
They are a Lovely looking bike.
I would think a Tall ish screen will be a necessary purchase tho;

He's not entirely wrong - look out for rust on some small components which were given a thin coat of black paint - sidestand maybe, and if it has those chromed mirrors they'll rust like f**k

I speak from experience
