MOTO GUZZIV7 II Special 2016 - 2017

　　In 2015, like its Stone siblings and all other motorcycles in the V7 series, the Italian motorcycle maker introduced the Moto Guzzi V7 II Special. The bike was released into a new generation that benefited from several improvements.

　　The 2015 motorcycle was equipped with a new close-ratio transmission, an extra gear, and a new clutch that delivered a more relaxed riding experience at highway cruising speed. In addition, the engine was lowered by 10 mm, reducing its center of gravity and providing better stability.

　　Visually, the bike had standard features, such as a round headlight, a wide handlebar, a one-piece dual seat, side-mounted rear shocks, a dual exhaust system with a silencer on each side, and wire spoke wheels. In addition, the bike came with traction control and ABS as standard.

　　As for the power figures, the 2015 Moto Guzzi V7 II Special had installed a 744cc four-stroke air-cooled V-twin engine underneath its fuel tank, delivering an output power of 50 hp with maximum strength at 6,200 rpm and 58 Nm (43 lb-ft) torque at 5,000 rpm.

　　Suspension-wise, the bike was fitted with a 40 mm Marzocchi telescopic fork on the front, delivering 130 mm of travel, and a lightweight aluminum swingarm coupled to twin adjustable shock absorbers on the rear.

　　As for the stopping power, the wheels were coupled to a 320 mm disc on the front with a four-piston caliper and a 260 mm disc on the rear with a dual-piston caliper.
