Title: How many V711 Racer "America" bikes will be made
Post by: Lank on December 18, 2015, 07:46:47 AM

They have a numbered plaque on them and they say XX of 1000...  Now with a crapton if older V7 Racers unsold how many of the "America" edition will Guzzi produce?  I bet they will import far less than that 1000.....what say?  how do they think? Be nice to know how many of a particular model comes in.

Piaggio doesn't care about what current stock is floundering on the showroom floor that now the dealers problem. They concern themselves with pumping out new models. The V72A is nothing more than a paint scheme so if for some reason Piaggio sold a bunch all they have to do is stamp out more number plates and slap them on.

Think back to the Rosso Mandello limited edition. "One of 300" Till those sold out, then they were just "limited". Limited to as many as could be sold

Mike,
Is the '16 V7 Racer II listed on your website the 'America' limited? Couldn't find it on the 'official' Guzzi website but its the best looking Racer they've come out with so far. And no racing number '7'.

We have a standard verswion 2016 V7II racer. I have not seen any announcement of the America version , but since we are no longer a dealer maybe they have cut off any news. Hard to tell  any difference.

Here is serial #0007, the plate says its #30 of 1000, so I guess they have built at least 30 of them.
