Italian motorcycle manufacturer Moto Guzzi has been making headlines in recent months thanks to the global launch of the V100 Mandello. The historic Italian brand has had quite a rich history, producing boutique motorcycles that have gained recognition for their unique, charming character.
Moto Guzzi's bikes are generally retro in nature – even its flagship adventurer, the V85TT, carries some retro-inspired styling and character. However, when the brand unveiled the V100 Mandello, this all changed. Featuring high-tech components and a powerful engine, it is by far the most technologically advanced motorcycle in Moto Guzzi's lineup. Powered by a 1,042cc, liquid-cooled, fuel-injected, transverse V-twin engine, the V100 Mandello is also the most powerful bike in Moto Guzzi's lineup, dishing out 114 horsepower and 72 pound-feet of torque.
