MOTO GUZZI V7 II Racer Limited Edition (2014-2015) Specs, Performance & Photos

In 2014, alongside the base model, the Italian motorcycle maker released the Moto Guzzi V7 II Racer Limited Edition, a special edition motorcycle produced in only 50 units with some unique features and colors.

Unlike the basic model, the limited version motorcycle has a powerful resemblance to the 1960s and 1970s cafe racers, with a minimalist design. Underneath its retro appearance, the bike was backed up by Mandello del Lario's top-end technology.

In addition, the bike was painted in a special race gold color, specially created for it. Also, it featured a removable passenger seat cover that further accentuated its classic cafe racer style.

All bits and pieces were held together by a double-cradle tubular steel frame with detachable elements, including the bike's suspension system comprised of a 40 mm telescopic fork on the front and twin adjustable Bitubo shocks on the rear.

The bike rolled on an 18-inch front wheel baked up by a 360mm stainless steel disc engaged by a four-piston Brembo caliper, while the 17-inch rear wheel was handled by a 260 mm disc with a dual-piston caliper.

As for the power figures, the 2014 Moto Guzzi V7 II Racer Limited Edition boasted 50 hp with maximum strength at 6,200 rpm and 58 Nm (43 lb-ft) torque at 5,000 rpm, all coming from a 744cc four-stroke air-cooled V-twin engine managed by a fuel injection system.
