My 1973 Guzzi V7 Sport pictures are pre restoration (black) and after restoration (Green)

It's a 750cc Pushrod 90 º 'V' Twin, aircooled with chrome cylinder liners.

I imported it from Alessandro in Italy on 12th December 1996 - it has had 2 Previous Owners and has done about 160,000 kM (100,000 miles.)

Dyno tested on 19/01/98with 47 BHP at 114 MPH in 4th Gear, it does 185-195kph (116-122mph) depending if i'm running aviation fuel mixed with the 91 octane unleaded (for valve lube).

The only thing thats not original specification are the tyres, oil and the battery. It weighs about 225kG or 500lbs it's rock steady with fantastic handling and will sit all day at 140kph eating miles effortlessly.

 

The most accurate description i have ever heard of this bike is "It's a Racing Rhino" - 1972 MCN

and that.............. is just exactly what it feels like.
