Title: Re: Guzzi V7 Racer Post by: myssrhl on September 16, 2010, 12:56:29 AM 48 hp.......if I put a "Racer" sticker on my diesel Mercedes....does that make it a racer?
This bike is too corny...hope they didn't bring more than 2 over...they'll be lucky to sell them... Title: Re: Guzzi V7 Racer Post by: ungeheuer on September 16, 2010, 04:28:58 AM Its pure Italian racing heritage... it has a RED frame... and weight reduced drilled side panels... and a silly hat just like the Pope wears.... [laugh]
I prefer this - lame 48hp notwithstanding....

They will probably only make a few of these V7 racers and these will be limited to Europe. The Griso SE never made to the U.S. so I have no reason to believe these will either.
Also, I know the gas tanks on the regular V7 Classics and the V7 Cafe are plastic. The rumor is that the tanks on these V7 Racers are chrome over plastic. Chromed plastic is never a good idea. These new V7 bikes suffer from the deformed plastic tank problems that Ducati's have. Title: Re: Guzzi V7 Racer Post by: fastwin on September 16, 2010, 03:41:50 PM More of the same... me likey!
