Moto Guzzi V7 Stone 2022

Moto Guzzi V7 Stone 2022

The Italians know exactly how to polish an icon - the V7 Stone also has the characteristic, longitudinally installed V2 engine with the typical sloping cylinders. And with this model in particular, this should appeal not only to true Guzzi fans, but also to all those who are looking for a balanced, uncomplicated motorbike. Although the engine has its typical vibrations, it behaves well, the chassis is more comfortable than sporty, and the seating position is also well suited to the comfortable character. The single-disc brakes at the front even grip surprisingly well and the overall look goes straight to the heart. Only the LCD instruments seem out of place and modern.

modern engine with classic feel

low-maintenance cardan drive

comfortable seating position

good single-disc brake at the front

superb design

LCD fittings not optimally readable, strongly delayed gear display
