2006 Moto Guzzi Nevada Classic 750 IE review from Australia
"Great bike, but crap quality control and after sales support"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
LCD odometer malfunction.
Right hand foot peg came apart.
Major rear drive leak (twice).
Fatigue crack on right pannier mount (due to incomplete weld).
Crash bars ordered with bike arrive minus the mounting hardware (and 3 months after order).
Luggage ordered with the bike arrived with the wrong hardware (and 3 months after order).
General comments?
It is a great handling and a great looking machine, sorely let down by very poor quality control and after market support.
The waiting times for parts to arrive to fix all the warranty problems have been excessive, to the point of becoming ridiculous.
I estimate that in the 6 months I have had the bike, 40% of that time has been spent waiting for the bike to return from repairs.
