2005 Moto Guzzi Breva V 750 IE review from United Kingdom
"Gets fast very fast"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
After owning the bike for just under one month, I had problems with the battery. It was becoming flat after only a week of inactivity.
The fuel light is inaccurate and flickers a lot.
General comments?
Very nice bike with excellent handling and performance. The torque is extremely good, and gets you to 70 in a matter of seconds.
I've gone out and replaced the battery for a new one, but the problem of it discharging is the same. Recommend buying a charger which you can connect on an evening, and leave to charge over night as I have done.
