On Sunday 27th September I am joining Captain Rambunctious and Phil480 for a social distanced Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride to help raise awareness about prostate cancer and men’s mental health on behalf of Movember. It would be awesome if you could sponsor me, but please don’t feel obliged to do so.

I recently got some Pirelli Phantom Sportcomp tyres to replace the tires on my Moto Guzzi V7. As standard it comes fitted with Pirelli Sport Demons, and although they are not the best, I have stuck with them up until now. My garage has no room in it so I too the bike over to T Northeast in Horley. I prefer to support the smaller shops over the main dealerships mostly.

The helmet setup I was using in this video was my Davida open face helmet and the GoPro Hero 8 with Media Mod fitted, just using the rear internal mic. It worked ok, but I am not sure I will use the setup for the DGR. If you know a better way of getting voice audio with an open face helmet, please let me know?

  1. Lone Wolfer Garage

    That might be the greatest alley in all the world!

    No idea how to record audio on an open Face. Massive dead cat??? Or can you fit a microphone inside the cheekpads?

    What you need is some sort of device to shield the wind. Like a chin bar 😂

    tyres are the best up grade you can do on any bike.

  4. Zedhead Motovlogs

    It's great having somewhere that you have full confidence in using, the guzzi sounds great buddy. 👍👊

    I really must bite the bullet and get some new tyres for my Tiger, the ones on are still just about legal, but the rear is rather square, and the front is close to the wear indicators. Possibly Pilot Road 5 Trails this time.

    That's so cool…that covered alley is a trip ! 🙂 🙂 Ride safe !! 🙂

  7. Biker Bimble

    New rubber is always good!.. The camera angle looked fine to me Pete. Audio was a little quiet but the wind noise wasn't unbearable by any means mate 👍… All good in the hood buddy 😁

  8. WestonSuperMotoVlog

    Top video, the bike sounds epic. Actually surprised how good the sound quality was with an open face helmet ⛑️.
    And for what its worth I think the camera angle is spot on 👍

    Love the Guzzi
