Result
The new V100 from Moto Guzzi is a very well-equipped sports tourer with many strengths and few weaknesses. It is beguilingly beautiful and fortunately has not lost the typical Guzzi character despite all the changes. Guzzi's model policy is understandable: If you like it more puristic, take the V100. If you want the full Tec hut including semi-active Öhlins suspension, smartphone Gedaddel and QuichShifter, opt for the V100S. No matter which version you choose: The V100 owner can expect a great bike with lots of riding fun!The test machine was provided by Moto Italia. Here the Moto Guzzi V100 stands as a demonstrator and is happy about test riders. Then it is best to drive north-west towards Holstein Switzerland - there are a lot of curves here and also the motorway chase over the A20 is possible. At Moto Italia (the name says it all) there are also other Italian beauties from Aprilia, Vespa and Piaggio. Just drop by...
Conclusion - what sticks
Boy, what fun we had! Especially Volker, who wanted to check the windbreak on the motorway at just under 250 km/h, couldn't resist a "Uy, yes!". By the way, the windshield is adjustable, but not without tools. The windbreak is typically okay, but the helmet stays in the wind. As already said, the 950 is not a tourer.Okay, there are a few disadvantages such as e.B. the large turning circle or the warm air dissent on the right or the V2-typical load change reactions or the constant driving jerking, but a real Duc is just a small diva, which has to twitch a little at one point or another. And that's exactly what we love about the beautiful ones from Bologna, right? Awesome bike!
The test bike was provided to us by Ducati-Hamburg, where you can test drive many other, mostly red machines from Bella Italia in addition to the SuperSport.
