The V7 returns sexier than ever

For those of you lamenting the demise of the Guzzi V7, there’s good news because it’s making a comeback for 2021.

The even better news is that it’s no less sexy than before, and it gets a power boost in the form of the 850cc 65hp engine powering the V85 models. Or at least a close facsimile of that. So not only will it be quicker but Moto Guzzi also assures us that it will be more comfortable and refined, better equipped and also just as characterful as before.

Two versions will be available, the V7 Stone with its minimalistic style, and the V7 Special, with “classic and elegant lines”. Both look gorgeous, as per.

The new engine should mean better performance and greater fuel efficiency for “more riding pleasure, fun and reliability.”

Also new is a revised exhaust system, there’s a larger cardan shaft final drive unit, a wider rear wheel, and beefed up Kayaba rear shocks.

Side panels and rear fender have also been revised.

The V7 Stone picks up a full LED lighting system, the headlight incorporating the company eagle logo as its DRL. There’s also a new circular minimalist instrument cluster, entirely digital, and fresh aluminium rims, the rear shod with a wider 150/70 tyre. Colour options number three, black, blue and orange.

Expect them here Q2 next year.
