2019 Moto Guzzi V7 III Rough Motorcycle – Features
Chassis Features
The new 2019 Moto Guzzi V7 III Rough Bike features the best quality chassis and a uniquely styled frame. The Moto Guzzi brand knows how to design an ultra-fine and legendary frame and suspension. The V7 motorcycles have a great history from their origins. In 1970, these models were part of the LAPD (Los Angeles Police Department) team. The double-cradle tubular layout maintains the steel frames, and the weight distribution is kept the same, i.e., 46% front and 54% rear.
The 2019 Moto Guzzi V7 III Rough Motorcycle is the third generation introduced with an utterly revamped and reinforced front end with diverse steering geometry to ensure dynamic performance. Great attention was paid to paintwork and overall finishing and detailing. The inclination on the fixing point of the frame offers a progressive and controlled response in all conditions. The passenger will admire its comfortable seating position, which is achieved by the low and forward footpegs positioning. The saddle-handlebar-footpegs triangulation is preferably spaced for the riders of any height, thanks to its lower saddle and correct positioning of the aluminum footpegs.
Engine Features
There are many twin-cylinder engines globally, but none can compete against the transversal V Twin engine designed by Moto Guzzi. Mr. Giulio Cesare Carcano created it in 1967 and it was characterized by the configuration of the cylinder so specific that it made it an integral part of the motorcycle’s design.
In the third evolution, it has been completely revamped concerning the unit that equipped the V7 II intending to raise riding pleasure to the maximum and guarantee higher performance and reliability. The base of the engine is made of aluminum and it is stiffened in the focal points. It approves a crankshaft with inertia calculated to return vitality and an adequate engine brake. An all-new lubrication system in the crankcase has been designed to dissipate heat in the best possible way efficiently.
There is a unique ventilation system that reduces the power loss due to the use of internal pumping of its crankcase chambers and a new reduced capacity oil pump is capable of absorbing less power. The oil pump intake duct is unique and it is related to the by-pass valve and new piston cooling oil jets that have been introduced with flow control and management valve. An all-new alternator cover includes the blow-by gas output.
The changes have been introduced a year ago that were concerned with the high part of the engine, with entirely new cylinder heads, cylinders and pistons. The bore and stroke and overall engine displacement have been changed as compared to V7 II. The timing is measured by the pushrod and rockers system with a 2-valve-per-cylinder, and they are organized in an included position in the head. The new fuel system comes with a single-body Marelli electronic injection system managed by an electronic control unit. Its exhaust system is completed with dual pipe manifolds that enhance thermal insulation. Thanks to the latest auxiliary air system intake in the heads and the double lambda probe and engine design, this motorcycle complies with Euro 4 standard.
