    This is a complete V85 range, guaranteed to take the riding experience to the next level of enjoyment. Fine-tuned interventions such as the introduction of variable timing have improved torque at low speed and increased the maximum power of the new Euro 5+ twin-cylinder engine to 80 horsepower at 7750 rpm.

    Head knee guards on California Vintage

    in 24/7 V11

    Hallo Al,

    maybe know you my channel already ;-)

     

    The CalVin looks great...

    ... but the build quality could sometimes be really lousy. You have to invest a lot if you want a shiny bike and with the original mapping the bike is running much too lean.
    And even though my CalVin ended up being perfect, I think the power should be greater for such a heavy bike.

    Piaggio ... what the ...?!

    The freaking thing is that Radical Guzzi was featured on Moto Guzzi's official homepage and YT channel.
    I am also working in Marketing (B2B) and branding is important of course.
    I would have offered those independent shops a kind of partnership => Keep the name but place a banner linking to MGs website.

    You cannot get most parts anymore HMB is selling from MG/Piaggio.
    But shops like this strenghten the brand because they help to keep the heritage alive.

    If you just look at what models MG/Piaggio has created the last ten years ... it is ridiculous => V7, V85/9, V100 and even the smallblocks are more ore less just updates. 
     

    For me being a "GuzziGuy" since 1992 it makes me sad. I guess will never buy a new Guzzi (e.g. this Aprilia V100) again ...

    HMB Guzzi becomes HMB Moto

    The owner asked me if I could post this here:

    HMB-GUZZI is now HMB-MOTO

    as of today, we have changed our internet access as well as our email addresses.
    The shop itself will remain unchanged, the existing customer/login data will continue to apply.

    The new shop address: www.hmb-moto.de

    The new email address: info@hmb-moto.de

    Did you know that the Piaggio Group is currently forcing forum and website owners and professional stores to remove the word Guzzi from their names?
    This is currently happening in Germany. Latest victim HMB Guzzi.
    This is done by lawyers hired by the Piaggio Group.

    Moto Guzzi V100 Sport Tourer: water cooled, 120 HP (26th of August 2021)

    "Green is drag, mainly from tyre to roller contact. Red is measured rear wheel power, Black is calculated power at the clutch, Blue is a calculated torque at the clutch."

    "So this should be the very first indipendent dyno test for the Moto Guzzi newcomer V100 Mandello.
    She was just out of the break-in period and pulled 112hp on my very conservative dyno, pretty much matching the 115hp declared power.
    Power delivery is clean with no dips at all, with strong low end, stronger midrange, and nice topend till the 9500rpm rev limiter.
    Good work Moto Guzzi!"
