Hi From Coventry.
Thanks for adding me. I’ve just purchased a V7 Stone special. & loving the riding experience.
(I had a 2019 V85tt which was great, but I find the V7 a better fit for me)
Hoping to find advice for a rear rack, & most suitable engine crash protection.
That’s a nice looking bike. The Warwickshire section of the club meet in Hinckley once a month, more details here
Thanks & thanks for the info re the meeting. I will def make my way over there
Hello and welcome
Thanks, looking forward to enjoying the group:)
Welcome, from another Coventrian.
Hello Declin. My my that is a fine looking machine. I have a 2022 Stone and I fitted a Givi rear rack as it sits level with the seat. The frame of the rack makes a very sturdy handle when I pull the bike onto its centre stand. The Centre is an MG accessory that I fitted myself and is actually really useful and not difficult to use. This is the Givi rack without a top box plate ( it now has one but I thought you might like to see it without one).
Not sure if this is the right version of rack for your bike?
Hepco and Becker stuff fits well, and is good quality
This is a Hepco and Becker one. The one in the picture above looks neater, but will it fit?
Hi Brockett. Thanks for putting the photo on. I have been looking at the Givi rack and it is so helpful to see a proper photo of one fitted to the bike. I must say it looks good and seems to be a decent size. It’s probably the way I will go.
Respect to you for fitting a centre stand. I had one fitted by the dealer - I chickened out of trying it myself.
Thanks again for the pic
Hi Don-Spada.
Thanks very much for all this info its very much appreciated.
I have emailed Jurgen regarding the rack you linked me to, so maybe I will have the rack sorted soon…
Thanks again
Hi Declin (and everyone else).
This post caught my eye as I took delivery of the same model this week and am also in Cov.
Great bike.
Maybe see you around the area at some point.
Hi MotoBrownie.
Congrats on what is a great bike. It’s even getting me out in the cold & damp:)
Hi , I’ve fitted the Givi rear rack with the integrated frames for mounting panniers should you need them. I currently use one for mounting a army surplus utility bag for my disc lock. Engine crash protection is an MG item along with the screen and centre stand. Hope you enjoy your new bike.
Hi Rev-Chris.
Thanks, thats very helpful & I like the neat disc lock bag.
Couple of questions please if you don’t mind…
What size is your top box? & where did you get the front mudguard extender? - it looks a useful size.
Many thanks
The top box is Givi Monoloc. Not sure how many litres but the dimensions are 40cm wide, 38cm deep, 30cm high. Easy fit for a single helmet plus a rain jacket, gloves etc.
The fender extender is a Pyramid item. Good quality and works well in practice. Apologies for the delay in replying, just picked up your message.
Thats great, and more than helpful thanks.
I will order the pyramid extender in the morning
