My dear V7 Stone is actually sitting in the garage. No, not because it's broken: because it's winter here in Eastern Québec. Spring is slowly but surely showing its face. It'll be time to make her sing. Sweet, sweet, sweet bike. You don't need to go crazy on mods. I simply ditched the OEM mirrors for bar-ends, strapped handlebars for the passenger, put a little Dart classic windscreen and installed glorious Agostini slip-ons. No db killers? You bet. I still smile like a little kid on christmas each and every time I wake her up. That inverted V shimmy is so...f'n...charming. The clunky shifter? Gets to the very core of your soul. This bike brings you back to basics. Nostalgia done right were the right words. I love, love, love, love that thing. Over a Bonneville? OH YEAH. No hesitation. Plus, it has a driveshaft so for the lazy little f'er I am, this is just perfect.

Currently own a 1989 Moto Guzzi Mille GT 1000 cc that I have had for 20 years. Once took me 120 miles on one cylinder at highway speed when one spark plug wire crapped out on a Sunday morning with no shops open. At almost 70 years old it has gotten too heavy to maneuver in and out of situations. Purchased a 2013 Moto Guzzi V7 Stone at more than 100 pounds less wet weight. Absolutely love it. Will stay with Moto Guzzi for the rest of my riding life. I have owned BMW, Laverda, Ducati, Moto Morini, Triumph, BSA, Zundapp, Indian, Suzuki, Kawasaki, Cagiva and loved them all for different reasons, but the fact that I can physically handle the weight of a bike that will cruise (illegally) at 85-90 mph for as long as I need, looks good, is reliable and affordable and unique, why shop anywhere else?- -Mike Battle

Just got mine a week ago and cannot be more psyched. Incredibly easy to ride. Haven’t ridden in 30 years and it’s as if I never stopped. This machine turns heads.

The best review I have seen of the new v7, from someone who gets what the bike is for and takes joy from riding in the real world.

Great video, thank you. Just purchased mine about 2 weeks ago in the Centenario livery just like the one you're riding. Coming off of a Harley Road Glide and I absolutely love this motorcycle. So much more fun to ride in our northern Virginia traffic. Added an aftermarket horn, Atlas throttle lock and grip puppies. Perhaps an aftermarket exhaust after the break in period is over. My dealer said that the accessories should start showing up in about 6 months. I'm 58 and this is likely the last motorcycle that I will ever own. Reminds me of why I started riding in the 70's. It's a modern bike with modern reliability, style and comfort with an old school feel. Makes me smile. Ride safe.

Im after a modern classic after having owned a few Harleys and Yamahas. Triumph dealer is so far away and by luck I dug into Moto Guzzi after having seen one in real life, absolutley fell in love and saw I had a dealer just 10 mins away. Very excited to get my hands on a V7.

Your review was like an Italian romancing a beautiful compliant lover while drinking fine Italian table wine by a lake. It was not just informative, but a sweet aria in a well sung Opera. I look forward to test riding a Guzzi soon. It was wonderful!

It has a very good system for monitoring what's in the gas tank. Once the gas light comes on it starts a trip meter to tell you distance travelled since the light came on. Its far better and accurate than a gauge imo. I get about 20K/L. Light comes on at about 16L consumed leaving 5L in reserve or about 100k.

Yes,this is a classy gentlemans bike. I love my Moto Guzzi V7.

I just can't believe such a beautiful machine is only $10 grand. I think you sold me on this. I was considering the Ducati Scrambler, Aprilia RS660 and the Indian Scout. I like this bike because you just do not see them everywhere. Once my house closes I think I will order a Centenario V9 Bobber.

I love how you can hear the engine noise throughout the video. Uniquely moto guzzi sound

Love guzzi they keep the experience real....character.

Our son just took delivery of a 2021 V7 in the black color. We went to see it yesterday but unfortunately it is a rainy weekend here in New England. What a beautiful motorcycle. I cannot wait to ride it. I'm looking for something just as you describe in this video. This may be just be what I am looking for.

I brought one this week. The reviews are all correct- it’s a brilliant machine to connect with the essence of motorcycling. Fully enjoyable without breaking the speed limit.

1st off what a perfect review of a motorcycle! History, specs, user controls, engine, ride quality, man you covered it all in a well shot informative way also including the emotion the bike gave you. It’s obvious you get motorcycles. I’ve ridden bikes for 45 years straight & at 64 I’ve been looking for this bike! Bit of scratching, bit of touring, but of about towning on a bike that reminds me of my early days lov affair with motorcycling. Picking up my V7 Stone special edition today & your review leaves me in no doubt about my choice. Thank you

Bro, you just earned my subscription! Great expressions and demonstration of what this bike is about! Looking forward to getting mine in a couple of weeks...Viva Guzzi!

For sure the V7 just makes you smile every ride. Excellent review.

Fantastic review buddy. I’ve spent the last twenty years racing around on sport bikes but now you’ve made me want a Guzzi. 👍🏻

Dude! That was so, so good. Thank you!

I've been toying with the idea of getting a middle weight as a second bike for a while now, and after recently viewing a Web Bike World review of the new V7 850 Stone, I finally found something that checked all the boxes. I've probably read and viewed two dozen V7 reviews and they all are overwhelmingly positive. They all speak of the V7's "character" or "soul", and it's clear there's just so much more to these bikes and so many levels of pleasure they can provide. I'm really anxious to try one out.

What fantastic comments you give! Today I bought a v7 850 special in Grey....have to wait 2 months for it to arrive from Italy........greetings from the netherlamds, ciao ciao

Great review and you pretty much sum it up. Its the complete package. Guzzi's are the only bikes I know that will acutaly talk to you and become a part of you.They can handle a good fang thrashing and love it. This bike will handle any style or ride you want. So easy to do your own servicing as well ,as mentioned very simplistic.

Amen! What a speech!!! I enjoyed the video. I'm a little bit too tall for this beauty V7. My brother loves his V7 Stone. I bought the Audace (California) and I love it, too. But the lines of the V7 are perfect.

Beautiful commentary, very heartfelt! 🙏

Rabid, a solid review, nice. I test rode the V7 Stone a few weeks back, I was smitten, loved it. A pure riding machine, very few modern touches, just enough, the old retro components have been brought upto date, using new materials used. When compared to the last Guzzi i rode in 1980/81, a Le Mans Mk 1, it felt the same but different, both ride the curves the same, like a train on rails. At the end of the test, my face aching from grinning so much, the problem now is which V7 to buy, Stay safe, Ride free.

Very nice dedication to a motorcycle company that's starting to peak my interest. Nicely done, brother. Peace

While it isn’t that fast, it isn’t that slow either. I find it easily passes cars at highway speed. Compared to a lot of bikes I have owned, it’s very nimble. This bike is one of the most fun bikes I’ve ever ridden.

Magnifique présentation , j ai acheté cette superbe machine , et c est exactement ça , comme vous le décrivez , uniquement des magnifiques sensations , avec toujours le sourire sous le casque .....bravo pour la video , ( Sorry , y dont speak English ) ✌

The thing with this Guzzi is that it isn't a modern bike styled to look traditional, it's an older traditional design that has been carefully refined, updated and really really improved. Engineer brother's 890 KTM with quick shifter will run circles around this Guzzi but it feels isolated in comparison and it doesn't speak to me. The mechanicalness, handling and comfort of the V7 Stone does. As brother noted; they are compleat opposites on the street bike spectrum, but both great.

Good review. I have to agree with your assessment. It really is an awesome motorcycle.

Great review, very detailed & really nice presentation & production. Also a very cool bike, only thing stopping me getting one is I'm waiting to see what the new Guzzi mystery model is that will be revealed later this year.

I live in New England and at 5.5 gal. and 70+ mpg you can cover a lot of distance. You maybe passed by sport bikes because almost all NE. roads twist, but you can work this little bike and you'll smile all the way. The suspension will gentle remind you when your pushing the limits. On your review I never is you leaning into a turn. You'd think you died and gone to heaven on our roads. I feel almost sorry for you! LOL Kind words about a little known bike.

I absolutely LOVE my new to me 2017 Moto Guzzi v9 Bobber. I love everything about it except the seat and the rear suspension. If i hit a bump doing above 50 mph I feel it all the way up my spine. In your opinion does the 2021 v7 handle bumps at legal interstate speeds? I'm on my third seat and have expensive aftermarket shocks. I'm a big guy weighing in at 230 lbs. I'm ready to trade for a new v7 to stay with Guzzi. Thanks ahead of time for your feedback.

Some people were able to get 80whp out of this motor in the V85, can't wait to see if the same can happen here once somebody figures out the new ECU.

Thanks for the ride review. You answered a couple questions that have been bugging me. I remember being in Pierce Brothers Motorcycle Shop in San Antonio, Texas when the first V7 came out in the 60's. I was completely mesmerized by that bike. I've not been convinced the newer V7's were going to be as good in Some respects with being a Small Block and all. Will it be comfortable or capable of interstate hwy speeds and such. But it appears that it should be quite comfortably capable. I live in South Central Texas and Interstates are a Huge part of my travel pathway. I love the idea of a larger tank size and the driveshaft (I think) is the way to go. My last 5 bikes have been shaft driven & I like it that way. I'm 71 and not in the best of shape but motorcycling is a passion for this old guy and I'm looking at the V7 as my next ride. I usually put on at least 75K miles before I consider trading out a bike. I'm hopeful the V7 will accommodate my neurosis.

Would be fun to get factory riders from other makes on these bikes for a week and ask them for input? Have them share their thoughts with the companies they work for.

They should put 6 gears on all the sub liter bikes. My t100 is nice too, but u can feel it would love to have another gear. My old VMAX had shaft drive. It always seemed so different than chain or belt. Do they give you a center stand, unlike triumph. Ido like the seat shape, but I guess it keeps you in one position. It does look nice.

There are aftermarket center stands available, but they are not installed stock. That seat is great. Did a 404 mile ride in around 6 hours and it was comfy. This is the first motorcycle I did something like that on where I only stopped one for gas and then kept going and never felt beat up. Even my big Chieftain after the 291 mile straight ride I felt a little saddle sore.

Makes me laugh when people say "Middle weight" When I first hit the road in the 1970's a 750 was classed as a big bike!

Sir, that is a great question. It shows cautiousness. These are WONDERFUL bikes. They are not an intimidating bike. Short answer is this... Look for a smaller CC, lighter bike, that you develop a sense of what it is to be out on the road for about 5k miles. This will familiarize you with the nature of street riding. Dont spend a bunch of money on it either. Find a friend after 5k and give it to them so they can do the same. Then get a Guzzi. You will fall in love with the bike. It will probably be your last bike you own. You will also realize what you want out of the forever bike, riding the first one. The Guzzi will fill in all those holes, and you will have the experience to really appreciate it. Above all... Endorsement, and insurance before all of it.
