Just got myself a V Raptor yesterday. Rode it home for 260 km and took it for another 100 km today around the city outskirts. The bottom of the tank has a seal on a fuel line that leaks. I also noticed the right hand side plastic gill sort of thing is missing. Any Raptor owners' advice?

The reasons they went out of business were long and ongoing: -worlds biggest and best motocycle manufacturer by far in 1916 -made mistake by selling all WW1 era production to the govt leaving nothing for the dealers to sell -ownership structure was always an issue in the 20's, being a public company Vs family owned by harley -survived depression in part by selling plant and manufacturing machinery, canabilising itself, machinery was knackerd by the end of WW2 -post WW2 they rushed paralel twin bikes into production without proper testing -when it finally failed in 1953 the right to 'sell' indians got split from the right to 'manufacture' them, which is why it took so long to get them up and running again Obviously peoples love of the Indian bikes and brand never waivered, hence why they're back bigger than ever now.

When you were cruising with high RPMs, was that clatter the valves, or was it some thing else. I have owned 4 guzzis, That sound sounded like valve clatter, which is perfectly normal. Maybe it was the location of the microphone picking up mostly top end sound and exaggerating it …. I know that sound can’t be camchain, and I hope it’s not piston rattle, which is possible because of the air cooled cylinders.. i’m old enough to remember the by- gone two-stroke days, and those air cooled Kawasaki triples loudest noise if you were not standing behind the machine, was piston rattle… I am watching your video here in June 2023, because one of these machines has just come up for sale by private owner. I wanted to get some feedback.. i’m considering replacing my Kawasaki Z 400, with this Moto Guzzi as my non-fairing hot weather bike here in pittsburgh Pennsylvania, USA..

Lucky man. I hope you never used it, that things work a lot of money. In Aus dollors, your looking at around $500 but in the USA god knows what you could ask. I found a swiss voyager with the digital clock in an old mum abd pop camping shop just like you. It had been on display for around 15 years. I got it for $130 🤣

Very good and informative video, thanks for it. In this season I'm planning to buy one of these bikes. Btw I'm 5'13 (184 cm) tall, and I'm a bit concerned if the riding position is comfy to me. But, since the seat is quite long to slide back and forth in order to seated comfy, I'm hopfully hoping that this bike will be The Bike for me :) Can you affirm that my tallness will be ok for this bike or should I look for another or maybe the "N" version? Thanks!! Have safe trips.

I was so happy to see The Bike at the Wellington Museum...2002.... I had a poster of it on my bedroom wall when it first appeared in Performance Bike Magazine in 1992.. Such a cool Plinth that it sits upon too.. Still to see it and HeAr it!? This bike needs to be Respected with a Road Version... maybe INDIAN could do the honours?
