Moto Guzzi Le Mans V description
|
I bought this bike from a true gearhead (I'm not one, so bear with me), and he made some positive modifications:
Front Brake decoupled from Rear Brake. Timing chain replaced with gear mechanism. Different carbs and air cleaners. I installed tarozzi rearsets ($300), because I like the more aggressive riding position. Includes: Replacement side panels in VG condition. All the stuff I took off... side stand, original pegs, shift lever, brake lever. Manuals, as shown in pics. Look like bootleg copies. Handlebar endcaps that can hold the gas on for warmup or cruise control (I took them off). I'll throw in a seatbag and saddlebags that the original owner gave me, but I never used. Corbin seat as pictured. Ive been using the original. Note: Front tire has a slow leak that I never tracked down. Has to be brought up to pressure every 3-4 months. Leaks just a bit of oil. No other negatives that I'm aware of. Bike starts easy (unless it's really cold) and runs great. It doesn't accelerate like a rocket, but it's a torky monster and gives you smooth power when you roll on the gas. The front and back wheels ar the same size, not like some of the Le Mans models before this one where they ignored the engineers design and followed the fad for smaller front wheels. At age 57, I'm just not a motorcycle guy, anymore. I used to love death defying, white knuckle rides at highly illegal speeds, but, no more. Ive only ridden this thing 1000 miles in three years, so... time to sell. -steve |

Ghezzi-Brian V-Twin Motard Kit for Moto Guzzi Griso Featuring Dynamic Damping Action Suspension
Tue, 19 Jun 2012Moto Guzzi tuner Ghezzi-Brian unveiled a new motard based on the Moto Guzzi Griso. Available either as a whole motorcycle or as a ready-to-install kit for a Moto Guzzi Griso, the Ghezzi-Brian V-Twin Motard turns the Italian eagle brand’s roadster into a supermoto. The V-Twin Motard even fooled some of the motorcycle press into thinking it was a new Moto Guzzi Stelvio production model when a prototype was caught by spy photographers.
EICMA 2013: Moto Guzzi V7 Series Updates
Tue, 05 Nov 2013Not to be left out of the 2013 EICMA show announcements, Moto Guzzi has announced its changes for the three models that make up the V7 line. Known for their 1970s-inspired style, the V7s are built, according to Moto Guzzi press materials, “to three fundamental pillars: the 90° transverse V-twin, the timeless double cradle frame and the renowned cardan shaft final drive.” Well, one of these pillars gets a functional update for 2014. The engine now utilizes a wet flywheel instead of the previous dry alternator.
