Greetings from Nice, France :)

My 2024 Stone has mistral exhausts and sounds really nice. I also love the ocasional pops and crackles when re opening throttle between 4000 and 5000 rpm, or the pop when down shifting with a blip on the throttle.

I might want to do a tune on it to smooth out the jerky low rpm throttle and the hole between 2800 and 3200 rpm when accelerating but I don't want to completely loose the poping and cracking noise...

Do you have any recomendations on it ?

Any mod that will make the bike run better for these 2 conditions without deleting the fun pops ?

Mistral v twin boost ? Velocity stack ? K&N filter ?

Cheers !

Bought this used 2024 v7 stone with 1350km (demo bike) tuesday and today when I rode it a bit harder at 1500km she leaked oil :/

It doesn't seem to come from the nut on the bottom but from the space between the moving part attached to the wheel and the fixed part where the lug is.

I cleaned it up, took off the bolt where you add oil and there was a tiny bit of oil that came out. I retorqued both bolts but they were already snug.

I hope I wont need a driveshaft seal rebuild, I will carefully comute to work tomorrow to see if it is still leaking.

I already took an appointment with the dealer.

What's your thoughts ?

Edit: commuted to work this morning and no oil spillage. So my best guess is overfill from factory and the oil spilled out when hot hot.

Hi guys !

I have just bought this 2024 v7 Stone and I am searching for small luggage options.

What I mainly need is something waterproof:

- for weekend riding where I can put a small bottle of water, and a tire repair kit just in case. Eventually a sandwich lol

- for daily commuting when I need to transport my 14" laptop + rain riding gear (equivalent to two 0.5L bottles in terms of space).

20L of luggage total would be ideal.

I do a lot of lane filtering so it can't be more wide than the handlebars.

I need the bag to be easy and fast to secure on the bike and to easy to get from the bike.

I don't want to put a top case on this bike and I don't want to use a backpack either.

Maybe a side bag that clips on the bike and I can carry it with me to work with my stuff in ?

Thanks for the suggestions !

Hi !

I have tried a 2024 stone with mistrals and fell in love, so now I am deciding which bike to take - please help :)

1. v7 Stone 2024, 1300km with mistrals, dealer's demo bike for 7500 euro. Idk about warranty, should be at least 3 months, I fear a bit that I will have new bike problems without getting enough warranty

2. v7 Stone 2026, brand new but no mistrals for 8200 euro

3. v7 Sport 2025, 1700km, no mistrals for 9000 euro, 1 year warranty

I just can't decide what is the best deal, do I want the new stuff that comes with the 2026 version like more torque ?

Do i want better brakes and forks of the sport version ? Or is the 2024 version plenty enough ?

The first one seems like a good enough deal but I need opinions

Thanks !
