What Is It?
The third iteration of the retro Moto Guzzi V7 launched in 2017 and is powered by a Euro 4 compliant air-cooled 744 cc 90° V-Twin engine, producing 51 bhp at 6,200 rpm and maximum torque at 4,900 rpm. Unusually the engine is mounted transversely and final drive is via shaft.
Features include:
- Steel tubular frame with Aluminium swingarm
- 320 mm disc up front with Brembo four piston caliper
- 260 mm disc at the rear with two piston caliper
- Dual channel ABS
- 40 mm fork with 130 mm travel
- Dual Kayaba rear shocks with adjustable pre-load and 93 mm travel (96 mm for Racer)
- Traction control with Road / Rain / Off modes
- 6 speed gearbox with gear position indicator
- 2->2 exhaust system
Compared to the second generation V7II power is up around 4 bhp from a re-designed Euro 4 friendly engine however peak torque is roughly 2,000 rpm higher up the range, there are new side fairings with model specific graphics, new Kayaba shocks, a learner friendly 20 mm lower seat and as a byproduct of Euro 4 compliance two ride modes.
Minor improvements include slightly more dynamic steering geometry, reinforced front frame, 40 mm wider mirrors and protruding fuel cap. You can tell the V7III from the V7II by the horizontal stripes on the cylinder head.
The 18" front wheel takes a 100/90 tyre and the rear 17" a 130/80.
Options include the media platform for connecting the bike to a mobile app, red shock springs, Aluminium side fairings, side tank protectors, screen, injector heat shields, panniers, luggage rack, top box, comfort seat and billet levers.
