ATL Steve Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 I'm an old guy whose been riding for many decades. My other bikes are a 2016 Multistrada 1200 and 2013 Triumph Bonnie. I ran moto tours in Italy for the past 15 years but have stopped doing them. I got an MT 07 because I had rented them a few times when in LA on business and loved the lightweight and torque of the engine, even on tired rental bikes. As I get older, i have less patience with 500 lb bikes like my others. So far, I'm loving it. I made a video of my last tour in Italy. Enjoy! I'm in one of the last pics in the video black jacket and jeans- 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome to the club of "well seasoned" riders on MT/FZ-07s. There are a bunch of us here. 2 DewMan Just shut up and ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were lucky enough to get one of the 3 upstairs A/Ced rooms with two queen beds... Not sure I'd have liked doing a cabin. 1 DewMan Just shut up and ride.

Premium Member Benh972 Posted August 23, 2019 Premium Member Share Posted August 23, 2019 Welcome aboard! Man that those rides look majestic, maybe once my boys are a little more grown and I am retired I can take a trip like that. That whole video looked awesome like a once in a lifetime experience for someone like me. For now trips to 711, and to seem my friends in the next town over will have to do.
