My Moto Guzzi V7 Racer

My bike.
Hope it gets a thumbs up

Thumbs up here. Very nice ride. Looking to do an old guzzi cafe After I have completed the CB build.

thumbs up from me to

only went and sold a 81 guzzi a couple of months ago

wished i hadnt now

That wasn't your cafe racer'd V50 I saw on ebay by any chance was it ?

no not mine

mine was sold privatley, thought long and hard about it being my donor but it was 30yrs old and add only covered 8k from new

just couldnt bring meself to put the angle grinder on it plus the power or lack of a v50 didnt hit the spot

Pretty, very pretty. I love the V twins, dogs danglies when done properly, much credit bud.

I just thought that maybe people might think this was something I built myself.
Thanks for the compliments, but no.
This is a factory Cafe Racer.

All I've done is added the Stucchi bullet fairing and bar end mirrors.
Other than that, it's the standard bike.
I really do wish I had the time, money and know how to build something myself but I don't, but I love the Cafe Racer style so much.
I suppose at least Guzzi have the heritage credibility to produce something like this.
It's brand new but is based on the old V50, with a few more cubes, horses and fuel injection.
I just loved the idea of being able to buy something which has remained pretty much unchanged for 30/40 years.

I love the way that Moto Guzzi have stayed true to their heritage and tastefully brought a classic up to date, some very nice with the fairing added, gets my vote
