2016 Moto Guzzi V7 II Stone ABS, 2016 Moto Guzzi V7 II Stone ABS THE BIKE Easy to ride. Hard to stop riding. Eclectic and essential, the V7 II Stone comes in two bold new color schemes, Nero Ruvido and Grigio Intenso. They are satin finished, inspired by 70s color schemes, enhancing the contrast of the new V7II frame, built with more aesthetic welding where brilliant paintwork has been applied, complimenting the ingenious architecture. The rest of the bike is dominated by black, now also extended to the tail light assembly and the new brake and clutch levers. This look prominently presents the chrome on the silencers, instrument cluster profile, shocks and even the fins of the engine's aluminum cylinders, providing a stark but sophisticated contrast. The technical characteristic that differentiates the V7 II Stone ABS from the rest of the V7II lineup is the lightweight alloy wheel rims, a unique modern concept on a decidedly vintage design. This new model in the historic V7 range is trendy, agile, easy to customize with an array of accessories and features including the new 750cc, 90° V-twin engine that is more powerful and stays true to the characteristics of the Moto Guzzi tradition, that touring on a motorcycle at its most pure should be nothing but enjoyable.

Since then the engine has been continuously updated yet stays faithful to the original genial layout introduced by Italian engineer Lino Tonti in the 70s. While maintaining the classic 90° V configuration, the engine is now comprised of more than 70% new components. Cutting-edge technological solutions improve functionality, provide greater torque and power even at low rpms, and make the V7 more efficient, with higher fuel economy and reduced emissions. The design of the V7 II Stone ABS tells of the historic lineage of the model through a mix of forms and volumes which cite the famous ancestors, from the V7 750 Special remembered in the accents and the side panels, to the V7 Sport, which influenced the tank, also new in the V7 II Stone ABS. The new tank brings with it a superior metal construction that allows for a lighter tank along with a greater fuel capacity the V7 Stone can hold a record 5.8 gallons which, together with reduced consumption, ensures a range of up to 310 miles. This is further proof of the design philosophy that has guided the entire V7 family: engineering innovation is always intended to restore pleasure to the rider of gripping a real, resounding metal tank in true Moto Guzzi tradition. The rest of the V7 design confirms the alchemy of tradition and modernism that was intr
