Moto Guzzi V7

Among the large-displacement motorcycles, the Moto Guzzi V7 has been, for many years, one of the most popular and sold. This ‘modern classic’ entirely built in Mandello del Lario, on the eastern shore of Lake Como, in Italy, has always been characterized by angular tank shapes that blend well with that iconic 90° transverse V-twin engine that makes it immediately recognizable.

The Moto Guzzi V7 Stone (model year 2021-2024) was chosen by Rafz as the basis for a series of custom creations. Six different interpretations were born, each with its own well-defined character, although they all share the same look and feel. After the initial renders, present on this page, the designer immediately set to work to create the prototypes of the various components of the different models hypothesized so far. From virtual concepts we will therefore move very soon to real Special Bikes that it will be possible to admire live and, for the lucky ones, even ride.

In developing this project, it was decided to always leave the engine, frame, handlebar, suspension and tires original. In this specific case the rims and the tank are also the standard ones. Instead, everything else is custom: the ultra-short exhaust system, the single-seater cafe racer saddle, the rear part completely redone with license plate holder and light positioned under the saddle, the super-minimal front fairing, the shortened front fender, the side panels side redesigned, the handlebar counterweights and the fuel cap almost invisible. The Rafz emblem positioned below the one with the eagle completes the whole.
