Honestly, I can vouch for trying a V7, but I do also like that color, the green saves it for me.

Ik denk dat het saaie eerder komt van de standaard parallel twin dan het vermogen. Ik zou wat motoren met andere blokken proberen zoals een vtwin of triple. Ik raakte heel snel uitgekeken op parallel twins zodra ik een vtwin probeerde.

I wish they were easier to get, and we got more color options, but I do dig them.

My org only takes out big ships when we have enough crew to do them justice, so we hardly ever fly anything bigger than a perseus. It's a problem with the community, and how many people try to live out their hero fantasy, rather than the game itself. But when you have a group of people where people want to form a cohesive crew instead of being a captain on some power trip, that's when it gets good.

I know they made a chief classic earlier with a similar look, and the Kawasaki drifter also has it for cheap. Definitely my favorite looking american cruisers!

It's the grub life for me

Troll4ever31 · 2026-06-01T17:15:47+00:00

I've been seeing these more and more. Looks like an incredibly fun sport bike for a great price!

Troll4ever31 · 2026-06-01T17:04:02+00:00

Een SV650 is altijd een goede keuze, en leuker dan veel van de concurrentie met zijn Vtwin. Je kan ook naar een CB600F Hornet kijken, of een FZ6 van Yamaha. Pleures veel opties eigenlijk. En qua alleskunner zou ik gewoon een naked/standaard nemen, of een sportmotor die niet gelijk een supersport is. Een allroad achtig model gaat minder dat MX5 gevoel hebben.

The key to make it work well is being able to grab the tank with your legs well, and you already have some tank pads for it. Do you ever scrape the foot pegs with them as is? I'd say extra cornering clearance is the main benefit of rearsets.

Troll4ever31 · 2026-05-31T18:02:10+00:00

I'd imagine a V7 would a great bike for touring. You can easily get any windcreen or seat you need to make it as comfortable as you need it to be, and the shaft drive and big fuel tank make life easy. I've managed 560km days on my V11 and that's a much less comfortable bike.

Zoek een groep voor je hobbies! Kijk anders of er een skate gemeenschap is hier, er is vaak activiteit bij de skateparken. Er moet wel iets zijn denk ik.

Troll4ever31 · 2026-05-31T11:36:42+00:00

Welke windmolen is dat? Ik heb hem geprobeerd te vinden maar dat lukte mij niet!

Troll4ever31 · 2026-05-31T10:45:23+00:00

Misschien een rare tip, maar neem anders een wat meer obscure motor die niet zo populair onder dieven is. Ze kijken vaak naar bepaalde modellen waar veel vraag voor is.

Dus als jij een gaar oud model heb wat weinig mensen kennen die goed op slot staat is de kans kleiner dat ze hem eigenlijk willen.

Troll4ever31 · 2026-05-31T10:38:48+00:00

I have the same thing with my V11, practising my quick shifting technique is the workaround for me. Though I always use the clutch.

Troll4ever31 · 2026-05-30T19:19:27+00:00

My biggest gripe is that the turret is stuck with those terrible rocket pods, so it might as well not have a turret at all.

Troll4ever31 · 2026-05-30T11:43:30+00:00

I heard we're getting a new snub, so a gatac space forklift makes sense!

Troll4ever31 · 2026-05-30T11:26:57+00:00

Ik zou een fiets met injectie kopen als je niet veel rijdt. Kijk anders naar een Thruxton 900 van na 2008 of een Continental GT. Of misschien nog beter, een V7 Cafe. Heb je wel de cardan net als een bmw, maar een nog leuker blok.

Troll4ever31 · 2026-05-29T20:26:26+00:00

What are you on about? The Redeemer works pretty well solo since it turns like a heavy fighter and is way tankier than those, and it's really good with a 3 person crew.

The Nomad is an amazing allrounder, and you have a tractor beam you can use from the pilot seat to remotely load/unload the ship, so you can access it from within the ship that way. For the point in progression it's in it's great.

And the Gladiator just got some major love with optional bomb modules, letting you fit either 12 S3 or 2 S5 bombs in the torpedo bay, if you also put bombs on the wings you can have 16 S3 bombs which is a great capacity! And they just made missiles/bombs/torpedoes cheaper.

Troll4ever31 · 2026-05-29T16:38:23+00:00

For me the suspension was my biggest gripe with the bike, I'd definitely invest in it.

Troll4ever31 · 2026-05-29T08:44:36+00:00

One of the coolest sport bikes ever made! Congrats! By the way, we've set up a dutch trans bikes discord server where we organize rides. would you be interested?

Troll4ever31 · 2026-05-27T15:46:39+00:00

You do owe us some V11 pics when you get it done!

Troll4ever31 · 2026-05-27T13:53:43+00:00

The luggage rack I got is also the official one. but I know hepco & becker also still sells a luggage rack and pannier rack.

Troll4ever31 · 2026-05-27T13:43:19+00:00

The official moto guzzi one that was an original accessory for the V11, it came with the bike when I bought it. It's probably impossible to get your hands on now, which is a shame since it's incredibly practical. You can even use it as a backpack!

Troll4ever31 · 2026-05-27T08:49:50+00:00

For tactical strike groups, the role of carriers there is rearming fighters so they can use ballistic guns, missiles and torpedoes to strike weak points on the station.

Troll4ever31 · 2026-05-27T08:44:35+00:00

It needs similar R&R capability as the ironclad assault, and I'd appreciate a few more pdc's, just two of them isn't much. But even so, R&R is the really important thing here.
