Moto Guzzi V9 Bobber 2016

Moto Guzzi V9 Bobber 2016

The V9 Bobber is an absolutely authentic model - both as a Moto Guzzi and as a bobber. The typical longitudinally mounted V2 engine with its cylinders projecting upwards at an angle is proudly displayed and dominates the minimalist lines that should characterise a bobber. The small and wide front wheel is particularly successful, at least visually. With its 55 hp, the engine does not stand out too much from the V7 series, but thanks to the low weight of only 200 kilos, nothing stands in the way of a brisk ride. The seating position also corresponds to the bobber style - sporty and upright, you can enjoy the ride on the noble and therefore not so expensive machine.

Triumph Street Twin 2016

Triumph Street Twin 2016

The Triumph Street Twin is a pleasure bike par excellence, whose 55 hp engine impressively proves what really matters, namely torque. And exactly where you need it, in the middle of the rev range. 80 Nm push the 217 kg motorbike forward with pleasant pressure and never tempt the rider to overtax the engine, i.e. to rev it. In terms of design, Triumph remained authentic as usual and offers countless possibilities for customisation with over 450 accessories and the three "Inspiration Packs". A lesson in modern classics.

excellently tuned engine

high torque

low consumption
