Hi, new member, hoping to purchase a new Mandello V100 imminently. I test rode one when they first came out and thought it was brilliant. Tested the latest version and it was even better. My last Guzzi was 30-40 years ago, a V1000G5, lovely bike. Looking forwards to getting something the opposite of my current ride, a CCM Blackout.
So, any tips as to must have accessories and things to avoid? I note that the screen does little, does adding a deflector to the top of the screen do anything? I’m 5’11”.

Welcome to the Pleasuredome! 
I’m planning a Puig tall screen for my Mandello but folks speak well of the deflectors. Fenda extender and radiator guard are essentials to keep cleaning easier. 60mm impact socket for that rear wheel nut if you do your own spannering or tyre changes.
Is it a new machine or used? Anyway plentiful great input from all the guys here. Enjoy!
Thanks for the welcome. I had a Puig deflector on my Niken, which made a big difference. I fitted Pyramid Fenda Extendas to my Trident front and rear, and glad I did! The chalk slurry that washes off the road in rain makes a real mess. They are on my list. ‘Tis a new one and counting the days!
