MOTO GUZZIV7 Classic 2008 - 2010

　　In 2008, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer launched the Moto Guzzi V7 Classic, a retro-looking machine in its second year of production, packing the same technical, visual, and performance specifications as the previous model.

　　The Moto Guzzi V7 Classic was a naked bike with a retro appearance presented at the 2007 Milan Motorcycle Show as a proposal for the vintage-style motorcycle market. It was based on the Breva 750 model with limited chassis and engine variations.

　　The V7 Classic harked back to the most successful motorcycles manufactured by Moto Guzzi after the Second World War, including the V7 Special manufactured in 1969 and the V7 Sport produced in 1972.

　　The bike was based on the Breva model and packed the same fuel tank, instruments, and side panels as the V7 Sport version and the white color scheme as the V7 Special model.

　　It was manufactured around a detachable tubular duplex frame with a 40 mm Marzocchi telescopic fork with 130 mm of travel on the front and an aluminum swingarm with side-mounted preload-adjustable shocks on the rear with 118 mm wheel travel.

　　The braking power was achieved by a 320 mm disc with a dual-piston caliper on the front and a 260 mm disc with a two-piston caliper on the rear.

　　As for power, the 2008 Moto Guzzi V7 Special had its heartbeat set by a 744cc four-stroke air-cooled V-twin engine that delivered 48 hp at 6,800 rpm and 55 Nm (40 lb-ft) torque at 3,600 rpm.
