Name a bike you regret selling thread... my turn ๐ฅน
Moto Guzzi V7 Classic. 2010 Neo retro, even if it doesn't mean much more than fuel injection about Moto Guzzi bikes.
She was a typical Moto Guzzi: lovely engine, great handling and finish-it-yourself everything else.
Not too viby, just enough to remind you motorcycles are a bit more than mecanical parts in motion, riding was inspiring and relaxing. One can say operating a Moto Guzzi like that forces you too go nice and slow, mostly like driving an actual vintage bike, except it fires up every time.
This one I regret selling because 10 years later I am looking at it again, and now I should afford owning more than one bike at a time.
That's a beautiful bike.
This is dumb, but I miss my old XV250. It was way too small for me, but still fun -- and so nimble. Traded it for a project Del Sol that I wound up giving away..
Yamaha XV 250 "Virago" from Wikipedia image database:
It is not dumb at all: small bikes are a joy to run. Nowadays you can't speed, you can't be too bold on the road now, are you ? ๐ซก
Ah! OK, now that I'm looking at it again, I remember the instigation for selling was because the top exhaust pipe turns out to be fake, it's just trim. Both cylinders are routed through the bottom one. And I felt kinda cheated when I found out.
