There are many excellent twin cylinder engines in the world, but there is only one transversal V and it is the Moto Guzzi twin – an engine characterized by a configuration of the cylinders so particular that it has become an integral part of Moto Guzzi’s design, like a true modern art sculpture in metal. The iconic Moto Guzzi transversal V-twin was developed with the goal of raising riding pleasure and fun on the road to a maximum, as well as guaranteeing higher performance and reliability.

The steel frame maintains the dismountable double cradle layout of its predecessor and the same weight distribution (46% front; 54% rear), but the front part has been completely revamped and reinforced, also introducing a new steering geometry that guarantees a more dynamic ride in corners, better handling and stability, thereby meeting all the riding needs of the modern rider.

V7 III has an ABS system and a new adjustable MGCT (Moto Guzzi Traction Control) system that can also be disabled. The former is a two-channel Continental system that prevents the wheels from locking up during intense braking, whereas the latter is a system that prevents rear wheel spin under acceleration. The new MGCT system is adjustable to two sensitivity levels, one more conservative and ideal, for example, in poor grip situations due to wet or slippery asphalt and the other is designed to cater to the thrill of riding in safety on dry roads. 

The third generation of the “seven-fifty” from Mandello will continue to be the entry-level Moto Guzzi. As such, it’s easy to ride, with the most contained size and weight in its category, but it still possesses a strong and authentic Moto Guzzi character, thanks largely to the transversal V-twin engine, a one-of-a-kind configuration.

The Moto Guzzi multimedia platform is available as an option for the new V7 III range. MG-MP is the innovative multimedia system which allows you to connect the bike to your smartphone. Thanks to a dedicated application, downloadable free from App Store and Google Play, your smartphone (iPhone or Android) becomes a sophisticated on-board computer.

Richly instilled with the stylistic personality of the V7, this is a motorcycle characterised by a design that speaks to riders through lines and shapes that draw directly from Moto Guzzi’s rich heritage and the requirements of a contemporary motorcycle.
