Moto Guzzi Standard reviews

First of all my 2023 Moto Morini Seiemmizzo SCR is my first motorcycle and I LOVE IT! After 6 months and 2800 miles on the clock my Moto Morini runs great even after two low speed crashes. Nothing too serious. Broken brake leveler and bent gear shifter. Both of which were repaired. I did remove about 10 pounds of plastic parts to really make my bike fly. In truth the Moto Morini bikes are designed and tested in Italy but built in China. Parts are cheap and the engine on my model is a Kawasaki clone so it’s solid. I have ridden on the street and off road without issue. So much fun y’all! If your looking for a new bike under $10k I highly recommend you check the Moto Morini line up. Show less

The V7 line is such an easy motorcycle to ride comfortably until you arrive at the 70mph mark, then it's too light and without the power and/or braking needed to ride safely at that speed. I have the rare Stornello scambler trim (not the Special) with a facotry two-up Pipe and it gets consistent compliments. The engine/transmission/shaft drive are wonderful and the bike starts every time! It sips gas unless you are really cracking the throttle wide open. The bike is fairly simple making it easy to work on, and/or easy to find a mechanic who is willing to work on the bike for you. The frame rake/travel and the rim selections 17/18 make this a good all around ride. I replaced the stock tires with Bridgestone Battleax AX41S tires and that improved the ride significantly. The V7 has undergone performance improvements since 2016, with the most notable occurring in 2020 when the 750 engine was replaced by an 850 engine with more HP and Torque! Sadly Guzzi has not built the V7 in the Stornello trim since 2016. That said, they always have a nice trim selection and this year they have a Corsa trim that is just beautiful! You really can't go wrong with the V7 if you want a nice all around bike that is reliable and fun to ride. Show less

This is by far the nicest bike that I have ever owned, it’s capabilities far exceed my own….it is light and nimble but still sticks to the road very well in the gusty high wind…This bike is very easy to ride and you will find this an ideal bike for a beginner, newly licensed rider to gain experience…. That can grow with you as you gain experience and confidence,,, With it’s six speed transmission and power band it easily cruises at any speed, from urban city street speeds to open highway...it is perfect for touring with it’s powerful 853 CC V Twin Engine and long range fuel capacity, giving it a range of almost 200 miles between fuel stops ...That coupled with the comfortable Italian Leather Seat… And the maintenance requirements are so easy if you are inclined to do your own work, or even if you do hire a shop or mechanic...first of all...Shaft Drive so No Chain to have to deal with…. With the bike on the center stand …. You can easily remove both tires…And that is wonderful if you ever have a tire problem on the road... And for the rest of the routine service, you can easily change all of the fluids with your bike on the center stand, Engine Oil and Filter…. Transmission and Final Drive, are all easily accessible with the bike on the center stand and there is also room for the drain pan too….There is no coolant to worry about, and checking and setting the valves couldn't be easier.. Nothing to pull, like the gas tank to gain access, because the cylinder heads are right out in the open and you check and set them the old way no shims or disassembly of the valves or head with the lock nut adjustment… I have enjoyed riding this through the mountains and canyons and across the open range through the occasional herd of cattle and surprising deer or antelope, but even the trip to check the mail, or to the store always brings a smile to my face...
