Moto Guzzi V7 Special 2021

Moto Guzzi V7 Special 2021

The Moto Guzzi V7 remains true to itself in 2021 and despite the new engine. With its 65 hp, the V7 Special 850 is significantly more powerful than its predecessor, but remains the same motorbike of pleasure with lots of Italian emotion and a mighty dollop of coolness. If you like classic style elements and decelerated riding dynamics, the Moto Guzzi V7 is probably one of the most authentic retro motorbikes on the market.

Wonderful pleasure bike

New 850cc engine brings 25% more power

Beautiful design

Guzzi virtues unchanged

Relaxed riding position

Crisp gearbox

Not suitable for sporty heaters

LED headlamp from standard V7 would fit in

In principle, you can do anything with a V-Strom. It is, for example, a faithful hack'n moped that reliably gets you to work day after day. But it's also a weekend bike that you can take to the Kalte Kuchl or the Soboth on a Sunday. And of course, the V-Strom is particularly well suited for extended tours and trips.

Good-natured chassis

relaxed seating position

relatively powerful engine

aggressive exhaust trim

handguards

relaxed riding feel.

Not a really sophisticated look

windscreen a little too small.
