For sale by a dealer, ad shows 1 mile on the clock, seller says 185 miles.  Looks a lot like bait and switch to me.

He has been an eBay member since 2007 with 100% feedback rating.  From the looks of the garage the pictures were taken, that's not a dealer.  My guess is he checked a couple wrong boxes when setting up the ad - easy to make mistakes.  Someone in OKC should check it out!

Who that is a sensory overload. White bodywork with red striping, black motor, red frame. brown seat, yellow shocks. Maybe some gold anodized wheels would tie it all together.

Paint the front fender white with the red stripe pattern, put a black seat on it and get rid of the belt on the tank. Can ebay flip the dash picture so you can look at it in a more normal orientation?

It would require a man with a certain amount of savoir faire to ride that bike, and look good on it.    :bike-037:

Looks like something Pee Wee Herman would ride.
At least this time it’d be legal...

worst colorway Guzzi has ever roleased... the 2020 racer is one butt-ugly bike. I saw one at the NYC dealership, and I have to say, seeing it in person doesnt look any better in the least

The good news is like the ad states this is "limited edition" bike 38 out of 185 for 2020 and in USA. Just like all the other "limited edition V7 Racers since 2011.
