I'm considering getting some LSL Clubman mirrors for my V7ll. The GetGeared site shows adapters for various bikes, but doesn't mention Guzzi. Does anyone know whether they're a straight fit?

Do you know the stalk diameter and thread? Does it match what you have?

The Clubman is M10x1.25. I can't find what the V7ll is. That's the problem.

Logic suggests take a mirror off the V7 and measure the thread .. or isn't it that simple? Smile

That will tell me the length and width of the stem, but not whether the thread is compatible. I'm a virgin in the metric world. If both original and the projected mirrors have stems the same width, will the threads necessarily be the same?

The thread is metric fine.
V7 Classic Black and gold was the best. But green & black was nice too. Now blue is in!

Well my old V50, and my Norge are both M10x1.25, so I would have little doubt the new V7 will be the same.

I have fitted mirror extenders to my V7 Classic. They are brilliant. The ones I bought were stated as being for a Kawasaki but that does not matter at all. They are the M10 option rather than M8. Fit straight on.

The mirrors on a V7 II Racer are definitely M10 x 1.25 (fine) thread as I checked very recently :)
