For cafe racer fans and 1970’s nostalgia victims, Moto Guzzi has produced this V7 Clubman Racer, harking back to days of V7 Sport racing. Moto Guzzi has focused very much on style with this V7, but has included some modern technological touches. The top fairing is inspired by the 850 LeMans and sits prominently with the single-seat saddle and chrome tank.

The V7 Clubman Racer is loosely based on the V7 Cafe, with the same double cradle chassis, and featuring Bitubo shock absorbers and Marzocchi fork with 130 mm travel. The front brake is a 320 mm floating disc and the rear, 260 mm, and the spoke wheels have high performance, high profile tyres in the form of the Pirelli Demon Sport. The rear tyre is larger, measuring 140/70.

The V7 Clubman Racer gallery features both official pics and live shots from this year’s EICMA show. After the jump is the press release and full technical specs of the V7 Clubman Racer.

The V7 Café Classic has a 744 cc, 90°, V twin engine with five-speed transmission, 54.7 Nm of torque and 50 hp.
