Moto Guzzi V7iii Racer and V9 Bobber test ride review 

Finally! Two Aussies that I understand every word they say. Brilliant job Guys.

Over 2 years on and I still love this bike...your review is what made me go out and buy one!!!

As far as Italian bikes, I have owned a Moto Morini 500, Ducati 860, Caviga 650, and a Laverda 1000. Have owned several British bikes as well as BMW, Zundapps, Suzukis, and Kawasaki 750 and 1000. My greatest pleasures are my current 1989 Moto Guzzi 1000 Mille GT and 2013 750 Moto Guzzi Stone. Uncomplicated, physically within my realm as far as weight/speed, and I enjoy the contact with other Guzzistos. Mike Batttle

Well, that's it...going next week to the Guzzi dealer for a test ride. Here in Israel they are actually very reasonably priced bikes. My wife will be happy I'll have money left over for a vacation. Excellent review boys!!!!! Wanna see ya on the Z900RS!

They don't vibrate at all, but when they do! Love it.

Very good review. I did test between these two bikes and finally I chosen a V7iii Anniversario over a V9 Bobbler for bigger fuel tank, real seat for rider and passenger, finally cool chrome tank. Even I preferred the feeling of V9 engine and chassis. I rode my bike over 2,500km within 2 months of owning. It was a very good one that make me forget my old bike 2009 Kawasaki ZX-14. The torque is instant so I can use everyday and it can handle hot weather even hot here in Thailand. Recommend for anyone who want a bike that you can ride daily and it will not kill you like other the super power bikes. Super low maintenance cost and rather economical to run.

Fantastic review, thanks guys. I currently ride a older V750ie Breva, love the bike but would like to upgrade to one of these one day.

another great review guys! keep up the good work

Very nice review, I had to share this on my Fb group Guzzisti

Bought the Bobber boys!!! Bought the Bobber!!!

Great review chaps. You clearly respect the brand and dont just look at power spec sheets! 👍

I love your enthusiasm, boys.

"They don't vibrate at all but when they do vibrate..." That guy is gonna be a star!

damn this is a good channel, i hope you guys blow up and get big

My first Guzzi was a 2004 750 Breva ,i bought it brand new , great bike , i enjoyed riding it , but i ended up getting a 2003 California Stone touring , i didn't know about the issues with the clutch , but have the upgraded dual disc clutch now , rides great .

Really good review. I thought you guys had 30-40k subscribers, so I was pretty shocked to see that I am only the 147th subscriber!

Great review! I just bought a V7 III Racer! Watched this like 3 times while sorting out which bike to buy. Thanks!

Good riding position and fun , very cool🌿

If you dislike a Guzzi it must be because you haven't ridden one because they'll charm you once you're in the saddle. Bikes you like to look at but love to ride.

Hi fellas, greetings from the UK. Great review, positive, balanced and much appreciated. Subscribed.

Love the V7 Racer.

I've had a re reg never used 2016 with 2017 spec V9 bobber since Jan 2018. Issues I've had are cleaning and still can't work it out (live in UK crazy weather recently), the mirrors I suggest if new just torque em up a bit more (I keep a ratchet with me on long ones) or get bar ends, there's no fuel gauge a bit of a pain for long trips again and a month ago the right oxygen sensor faultied, it was due it's first service regardless and it was quickly sorted on the computer. No biker seems to have seen one so if you're after something different it's great.

Beautiful... I want one...

I'm torn between the V7 Racer and one of the more 'standard' trims. My biggest worry is the seating position. I love a more upright setup. Do you know how much more leaned forward is the racer vs. the non-racer trims - and if this affects your comfort?

It really is a great bike.

There is no heat coming from the Racer heads. I’ve owned 2 Racers and ridden in grueling summers.

those are my 2 MG favorite model

I own a V9 Roamer, the sister of the Bobber. Only differences are the slightly cushier seat (on the Roamer), thinner front tire (on the Roamer) and handlebars are more raised and swept back (on the Roamer). You guys do mention the fact that legs can rub against the intlets and they do get hot. Yes they do!! At 6'2' tall with a 33" inseam. it is an issue and you do have to wear kevlar lined jeans and position your legs a bit wide of the bike. The new models (released already in Europe) do have the footpegs moved aft by about 4 or so inches and raised by an inch ( using imperial terms). That cures the "hot shin syndrome" but stops the slightly forward cruiser feel the existing model provides but tightens the position to the more "standard" . You can get a retro fit done to change the peg position but then you lose something in it all. And after all...if you buy or are attracted to a "Guzzi" you love the quirky or you go for something else.

Hey boys thanks for the review I was struggling to find a decent local review, I'm tempted to buy a v7 myself but I live in a very rural and remote part of the country and I'm concerned about big B doubles and road trains, will the relatively low power be an issue do you think?

Actually i dont like music in Bike reviews,..but this was an good mix between cool music and (most important) MOTORSOUND . ^^ greetings from hamburg germany.-*

nice review. But how exactly do you take that special someone for coffee on the MG V7 racer? Handlebars?

Guzzi need to make the V11 still I think they would sell like hot cakes with all the interest in cafe racers at the moment. The v7 is a great looking bike but hasn’t got the go.

hard to find in France as second hand, plus hesitating between V7 stone 2 or 3, because of the abs ; any suggestions?

Hi guys, will you be testing more Moto Guzzi’s? Your reviews seems genuine and honest when you say the bikes are so easy to ride. Other reviews say the same, but then again some reviews says it is so difficult to handle with the front tire of the V9 Bobber. I think like JF motorcycles say you get used to it soon enough. Maybe for some it takes a few kilometers and for some others it takes 1 day. After that is sensational I think. I am a beginning rider and have to buy my first bike. I am doubting between the Moto Guzzi’s V9 and Audace or an Indian Scout/Scout Bobber. I personnaly would like to go for the Audace, but a lot of people say it is to heavy for beginning riders. Other people say choose the bike that suits you which will also mean the gear, the throttle and so on. What will be your opinion between these bikes for a beginning rider? Last question: Will you be testing the Moto Guzzi Audace and/or California custom? I have subscribed and love to see this bikes pass by in the reviews. Best regards, Henry

So, you liked them then?

Never felt a lick of heat off my V7 Cafe Classic or my V7III Carbon.

Well.... I got one! Cheers

are they suitable for guys around 6 ' 2" ( 185 cm ) tall ?

BTW guys what exhaust do u have on the V9? Not the standard exhaust...

I love the v7 but I really felt it was to gutless I'm no Sports rider but more power would make them so much better 😁👍

Guys I picked up my new Bobber... hope you'll answer one question... there's a noticeable "clunk" while shifting...you made no mention of that. Is that normal?

That small gas tank on the V9 sucks... Moto Guzzi is the only Italian bike company that has a rear brake, that works.

I don't really love what they did the with the V7 Racer lll. The older ones are nicer. The black pipes and matte tank just arent jiving. It looks cheap now...

Nice reviews but the stock suspension on the v9 bobber is incredibly poor, it's like riding on pogo sticks! Wish they'd put ohlin's on both models

What's the difference between a V-7 ii and a V-7 iii?

How tall are you moreless?

Found dialogue very repetitive. Work on your script

Pronounced 'Gootzi'

I'm loving these bikes but they sound AWFUL.
