Title: Back into the Guzzi family…
Post by: AAAltered on April 07, 2022, 09:02:25 AM
Ten years on from losing my Griso to Sandy, I have gotten a new Guzzi.

It's a 22 V7 Special.  New this year is the (detuned) V85 850 in this frame...

I'll bring it home next week when the weather changes....

They definitely nailed the modern retro look. Looks like a lot of fun!

I don't have much saddle time yet on this bike.

This is a 2022, which is the same as the 2021, minus a "100th Year" decal. 

The full model is V7 Special E5 (euro 5 emissions std).  It's a V9 850 engine, tame 65HP.

Color is called BLU FORMALE, lots of chrome, polished aluminum rims.  Not much aftermarket yet for this model but the previous series of V7's had plenty so sometime the market will deliver exhausts, fuel mapping, etc. 

If you are in the US there are incentives on any 21 leftovers, I went with the 22 because it was local.... 11k even out the door...
