NEW Model Spy Pics: topic merged

[Dirk_S]

Check it!

The website seems to be in the know, claiming it’s possibly a 120 hp water-cooled sport-tourer, which would be in line with the same claim a big-name dealer told me recently.

Looking forward to more official updates!

I’m sure the cynics out there who have been crapping on this year’s output and MG’s future (or seemingly lack-thereof) will enjoy sitting down to give those angry little fingers a break.

looks kinda like a Yamaha to me

I see Breva DNA.

Probably  is a 10 year old shot of a Breva.....   DonG

1000 cc and 120hp.  Looks like a similar version of my Ducati Supersport, perhaps a little heavier assuming shaft drive and more touring oriented?

Better late than never.

On the technical side we have the news that will make the happiness of those who love the Italian eagle. The new Moto Guzzi V100 marks the birth of the new engine platform.
In fact, the transversal V-engine with liquid cooling arrives, which is necessary in view of the future anti-pollution regulations, which are increasingly severe. The Italian company looks to the future with important investments that will lead to an expansion of the offer. The new 1000 engine, which on this version could already develop a power of about 120 horsepower, will in fact be used on maxienduro models, but also sporty ones, given the important performance and low weight. And it is easy to assume that the new platform lends itself to the development of different displacements, both larger and smaller. Without obviously renouncing the shaft drive.

On the new Moto Guzzi V100 we will certainly find the most advanced electronic controls (traction, ABS, cornering), which have already been developed by the group on recent Aprilia and Moto Guzzi models.
The wait at this point is very high, but we bet there will be little to wait. Official photos were being taken today. The Moto Guzzi V100 is therefore ready and will be a star of EICMA.

Can't wait to see this one!

From the photo gallery pics, it looks like a left side single sided swing arm with single right side short exhaust can.  Tubular handle bars, and a tidy rear end.

Wonder if this is the same engine project?

"June 4th, 2013

The new California 1400 may be impressive, but it marks only the beginning of Moto Guzzi's return to the splendors of the past because we have just learned some very significant news: A totally new 90-degree V-Twin engine is taking shape on the computers of Chief Project Engineer Federico Martini and his assistants.

This is not a further refurbishing of the old faithful V-Twin designed in the 1960s by legendary Chief Project Engineer Giulio Cesare Carcano. No, this engine is totally new, a compact, liquid-cooled design that is said to meet tightening future emissions requirements and be immensely more powerful than anything currently coming out of the Mandello del Lario factory.

Producing possibly as much as 140 horsepower, this new 1.3-liter V-Twin will reportedly have enough grunt to bring back the myth of the Moto Guzzi Le Mans models. As on the old Honda CX500, the gearbox of Moto Guzzi's new liquid-cooled V-Twin will rotate in the opposite direction of the crankshaft to kill the torque reaction generated by any motorcycle engine with a longitudinal crank.

In contrast to the current air-cooled pushrod V-Twins (photo above), the new liquid-cooled Moto Guzzi V-Twin will be a double-overhead-cam engine with four valves per cylinder and inlet runners facing each other inside the Vee. Work is in progress, but the new liquid-cooled Moto Guzzi powerhouse is expected to be ready no earlier than 2015. Might we see this liquid-cooled motor in a new Moto Guzzi Le Mans sportbike? Stay tuned."

Not opinions?  LOL Don't hold your breath.  Lots of critics with lots of opinions on how to "save" Guzzi, who has only been around for a mere 100 years.

Interesting article, though, thanks for sharing!

Looks like the blurred image on the 100th anniversary poster.

[hauto]

I really don't think it's a spy photo. You don't get that close and get nothing but a blurry image to show for it. Guzzi is very strategic on what and how they release info. It's just a tease. Hope to see the real pictures soon.

[bad Chad]

Some of you guys would make lousy detectives!  It's clearly a spy photo.  This can be born out by going to the site the pic was taken from
 
The OP was kind enough to include the hyper-link to Motoit website, there you can see several other pic's, a couple that indicate spy indeed.

As a lifelong skeptic, I don’t trust nor do I care that any ‘spy pic’ of an upcoming bike model is really a clandestine shot excitedly taken by a snoop in the biz. It could easily be a staged shot on the marketing agenda.

What matters is that it’s a sneak peek of something real. And THAT'S what tickles my nethers.

[bad Chad]

I agree 100% Dirk

[Frulk]

Hope springs eternal.

damn Chad, you have great vision.  I could barely make out, "is that a motorcycle?"

[LowRyter]

Is that a motorcycle?

 

[bad Chad]

Come on kids, have you really got so complacent with the internets that you have lost your curiosity???

Please see post 13 of this thread.

I hope I don’t have to hold any hands as we move forward.

[fotoguzzi]

Late to the party, shoulda brought it out at the beginning of their 100 year anniversary and had them on show floors ready to sell.
Maybe instead of V100 they can call it the V101..

[Shorty]

I don't know if it's a spy photo or a corporate tease shot. Looks like the men in the men in the photos were using a private helipad as a photo location.(Somewhere with a name of 5 or 6 letters ending in "A") You see them with tripods and lighting equipment. The men are dressed in summer clothing that looks more American or Aussie than stylish Italians.     I can't imagine being that open to view and not having a better image unless that was the goal. 

[hauto]

Go to google maps and paste this in and go to street view   Elisuperficie di Civenna   You can see the parking lot where they parked their transport vehicle  and someone snapped a photo with their phone. Pan around and you can see that a real spy photographer could of gotten a shot almost on top of the whole scene.  Wish i knew how to copy and paste pictures off google maps to show it here.  Maybe some one can. Do I care if it was a spy photo or not. Not really. I just know what I see and no one needs to take my hand.

[janguzzi]

Already the right colors for Huzo.

[willowstreetguzziguy]

Maybe we are the “Chicago Cubs fans” of motorcycling? Where Hope springs eternal.

[Gliderjohn]

The mirrors look exactly like the ones on my Norge.

[hauto]

Looks like they turned the heads 90 degrees. Lets hope more pics keep surfacing.

[Xlratr]

Looks like this is for real!

[Huzo]

Ok, you have my attention.
Who do I pay ?

[DesertPilot]

Fascinating!  Thanks for posting the link!  I can't wait to see one of these machines in person.  Though.... "The new engine will no longer have the intake behind the cylinder and the exhaust in front, but the first in the center of the V and the exhaust manifolds that will come out on the outside of the cylinders," seems somewhat... different...

[nc43bsa]

As is the LH driveshaft.
