Principal aspects to Improve performance on V7III; - GT remapped ECU, even with everything else stock - remove/plug the evaporative emissions system junk. - improved mufflers/exhaust system (with updated ECU map for it) - remove the secondary air intake system (to eliminate popping and spitting) with the GT SAS kit. - improved front suspension - improved tires - improved rear suspension. Well, I don´t know if that realy helps once the V7 III 2018 was already been improved by the fatory. I will wait to gain more experience and read more about it.

So.... i changed the springs myself. Dead easy and no spring compression required. Just spin off the locking nut and adjuster. 10 minute job. Also.... i got the Agostinis in black. Total balls up. The bracket on the right hand pipe was 2 1/2 inches out. The bracket had been put on the wrong way round!!!!! I binned them back to ago, money back and got myself a cheeky set of Norman Hyde pipes. UK based exhaust guru since 1975. They sound the dogs bollocks and fitted like a glove. Also came with nice small heat shields to disguise the clamps. Which for the prices of Agostinis is shocking they don't come with them. The Agostinis just look unfinished at the clamp areas. Total cost was £379 including free shipping. No brainer for me. So Norman 1 - Agostini Nil.

I like the classic look of these bikes and I don't think carbon fiber belongs anywhere on it. IMO. Also, with no baffles, don't you need an ECU retune? Besides losing low end power with no back pressure, you're risking burnt valves. This ain't 1975 and Moto Guzzi knows a thing or two about engine tuning.

The dealer recommends a tune, but frankly I don't see the need. I'm only getting the tune because I heard it improves the ridability of the V7 platform and also because I'm going to be taking out the baffles, which would definitely run lean without a tune. I'll be doing videos on the tune, baffles, etc. as it gets a bit warmer.

Hi Mark. I think $7K is an absolute steal. I got mine for just under $10K after a $1K manufacturer discount. I would have snapped up that $7K for the demo. Ok so firstly, I came from a Ducati Diavel, which is a beast of a bike. Break-neck torque and power. So I knew getting into the V7 was just going to be something to take slow rides on and kick around town on. However, I was actually pleasantly surprised with the torque of the bike (it's much lighter than the Duc too, which helps. Plus these cans just took another ~20lbs off too). My gripe with this bike is the front and rear suspension is not the greatest. That's my only gripe. But you can upgrade them. You can also tune the bike and even upgrade the pistons to 820cc for more power, which I'm looking into doing hopefully soon. This is the first bike I've actually decided I'm keeping instead of selling to get another bike. I want another Ducati Diavel (1260s) and if that ever happens, I'll have two bikes. Who knows, if the channel takes off, maybe I'll get a few bikes going. :) But in summary, I recommend the bike.

Beatiful bike man, congratulations. I have one V7 Carbon Dark too and already order a Agostini Carbon exhaust. Seeing your video make me some douts about the exhaust and the stetic with the all bike, it seems a litle to small and without a continuity along the pipe, unlike the stock exhaust. Well, it could be only my imagination, the truth is that sounds much better. Anyway, I am eger to see your next video about the exhaust without baffles. Nice video and thanks for sharing.

Hi Steve, the V7 III Carbon is so beautifull that we shouldn't have any ideas on changing things. Is like an Opera, you take a couple of notes and you ruin it completly. But the sound of the exhaust could be much better with a diferent exhaust. Unfornunatly and for what I have seen the Agostini Exhaust's for the V7 have all this issue, they don´t go along proprely with the rest of the pipe. Only for the V9 they fit perfectly.

Hi Luis. Apologies for the delay. I was surprised by the shortness of the exhaust when I first saw it but then I realized the stock exhaust are just really long. I prefer the shorter (and lighter) Agostini's.

Hi Steve. The long ones look cool but the short ones grew on me (especially being 15-20lbs lighter than stock). Did you get your V7 yet?

Hi Luis. This particular exhaust (the carbon version) goes well with the bike. It matches the carbon fiber parts of the bike nicely.

Two great choices. I would have considered the racer too but I had a Ducati Monster (S4R) that looks close to it. I went for the black and red. You can also get a black V7 and put the valve covers on as accessories too. But if you can get a Carbon Dark, they are limited in number so it's kind of a cool collectors thing. This is the first bike I'm planning on keeping (God willing) and adding more bikes hopefully soon (I really want to get another Ducati Diavel).
