Moto Guzzi V7 Cafe Classic

Moto Guzzi V7 Cafe Classic design is very like the type of the famous 2012 Moto Guzzi V7 Cafe Classic Sport, faithfully maintaining the forms as well as size of the actual tank as well as side addresses. This design is one of the very best examples of Italian design of the 70s, therefore famous in fact that industry press didn’t hold off in proclaiming the V7 Sport the archetype associated with Italian sport bikes where the essence of style conveys the potency of the perform for which the bike was created.
There are many commonalities between the original V7 Sport and the new Moto Guzzi V7 Cafe Classic starting with the particularly compact front thanks to the two slanting half-handlebars which tempt the rider to consider an aerodynamic position with eyes around the instruments and body just a span from the top of the tank, the latter painted in the “Legnano” colors, a shade associated with green as well as metallic gold that, in a satin sculpt, reminds all of us of the common color of the sportiest Moto Guzzi bikes.
Special event of the “Seventies” design continues using the profusion of chroming, spoke tires, upswept mufflers, the instrument dials inspired by the famous Veglia-Borletti and also the seat along with integrated butt that comes after the line of the rear fender, the second in a dark color matching the front.
