If you would've told me four years ago that I would be riding a high mileage Italian motorcycle, I'd have laughed in your face. Well, a 6500 mile round trip (averaging about 500 miles a day) cross country trek from Ohio to California and over 80,000 miles of faithful service have made me a believer. I bought it to be a sedate cruiser and "back up" for my Triumph Street Triple R... since I got the Guzzi, I've put 4000 miles on the Triumph, and 16,000 on the Guzzi. There's just something absolutely magical and endearing about a Moto Guzzi. Between the look, sound, character, history, and the way the bike makes you FEEL, it's unlike anything else. Also, you have a 10/10 chance of making friends at the gas station with strangers who used to have one or "is that a Moto Guzzi?? I haven't seen one of those in YEARS!"

These are most unique mass-produced (less than 10k) a year bikes in the world. Matt is new to bikes, so I'll fill you guys in. For less than most Triumphs (if not all), you get a HAND built bike from Italy, made in the same factory since day one, from the longest consecutively running European motorcycle manufacturer. Guzzi is older than Ducati. And with the right aftermarket pipes, the exhaust note from these bikes are UNBELIEVABLE. Yes, I have one, and Todd at GTmotocycles, who is a Guzzi specialist, put those mods on mine. The problem is, like all bikes these are neutered by euro standards. If Matt got on mine he wouldn't even think it was the same brand. It's a beautiful beast.

My dad wanted a Norton Atlas, BMW R69, or a Guzzi. Unfortunately, he only got a 1970 Suzuki Savage 250cc Enduro. But I know he had a lot of fun with it! (Mom & dad shared it!)

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

They may not be the most popular of your videos, but I love the fact you do motorcycle ones now. 🙌🏼

Its sounded.good . My ealier model.v7 did 96,000 klm before i sold it . In that time i did two batteries and one clutch plate . The bike is still going to this day .

M-G makes wonderful real world motorcycles. They are very sturdy, you can do almost all maintenance yourself if you want to and they are not too exotic for any good motorcycle mechanic for more extensive repairs. Of course they are a little quirky and unique but they are super solid practical and fun. You don’t ride a Moto Guzzi to race with squids. Not the point. They are fast enough for normal humans and they handle really well. Race yourself maybe. Then go ride around. They are made really well. You can adjust your own valves and service your own brakes etc. And.. the Guzzi rider family is very welcoming, cool, engaged and world-wide. It a good thing, M-G.

Love ( a big girl like me) shows his confidence and I love tst on the speedo ridiculous how intuitive you are. Love all your content

I had 4 bikes including a BMW GS and S1000rr. I bought a V7 ii for my wife and fell so in love with it I pretty much stole it and everything else sits. Then bought another Guzzi California 1400. They are absolutely great. Simple and reliable too. You will not be sorry.

I bought a Guzzi Griso 10 years ago. It has been awesome. I’m 6’1”, it fits me just fine

Nice job with this video you summarize what a V7 is with only a few minor grievances no fuel gauge and more suitable shorter riders. Thank you

They had some electrical niggles when they switched to injection, but their engines are rock solid.... And the access for checking the valve gaps couldn’t exactly be much better!

As a Moto Guzzi owner I approve this message lol. Now this V7 850cc is a cool bike but we all know that you need to try a more substantial model from the Guzzi family. May I recommend my bike Moto Guzzi California Audace 1400. I'm 6.1 and I fit grate with space to move so I recon U would feel much more comfortable on one. The best think I can say about an Audace is that it rides like a big naked bike (XJR 1300 or GSX1400) rather then a cruiser. It handles better than anything is size amd weight should. Plus the brakes are from a previous gen Aprilia Tuono v4 so it stops better then any over 300kg motorcycle I know. Electronics are from Aprilia as well (thanks to the Piaggo connection) you got 3 riding modes sport (veloce full power sporty throttle) normal (tourismo full power normal throttle) and rain(pioggia kills power by 1/3 and makes the throttle less direct). Plus you have 3 stage traction control that you can switch off if you want to "smoke some tyre" lol

Great video! 👍

That slo mo shot was sick

I’d have a new V7 Stone tomorrow, but only if I could have the normal looking headlamp off the Special Also twin front discs would be essential with the extra power as the single front disc always seemed on it’s limit on the previous version Oh and the twin dials , also off the Special I’d happily tick those option boxes as everything else is Perfect 🏍🙏🏻

If you're so leggy that your knees are at too tight an angle you need to rotate your hips forwards. That means moving the bars away from you. If you sit on a chair with your legs tucked under you, you naturally lean forwards to be comfortable. You may even need to change the bars. Average male height in US is 5-ft 9-in (slightly less than Italy), if they made bikes bigger to fit 6-footers that would be only 14% of the population able to ride it. All Guzzi are built for 2-up. Meaning it doesn't care about your weight. Adjust the preload on the shocks. When I got my V7 I was 280-lb and rode it 2-up as well, didn't bother it in the least.

I didn't know Matt was a biker!? Very cool.

8:52 Your RPM warning light was factory programmed for the break-in period. Reset it to 6,800 RPM. Your rev limiter is actually well above that.

Nice review! I ride a 2020 Triumph Street Triple 765RS which I appreciate will be much faster than this V7. But I'm still curious to try this. Love the sound and the styling!

Have found the dimensions of fairly recent models of the V7 to be very small even at 5'8" and 165 lbs. They also seemed to vibrate more than a 1960's motel 25c vibrabed! This one sounds like MG may have addressed some of these type of issues.

this is a bike for me

I admit, I was looking forward to a Two Takes on a Motorbike for April Fools day.

Hmm, your HP, Torque and Weight figures appear to be off according to Guzzi's NA site. Perhaps I missed it although I did not see any mention of the suspension's performance. While the new V7 may be better handling than the earlier V7ll and V7lll's, the older Tonti framed bikes were highly touted for their level of handling quality.

Good stuff

really hope that motorcycle onetakes are going to be a thing!

No differential, just bevel gears to turn the rotation 90 degrees.
