Moto Guzzi Breva V 1100ie
Breva V 1100. The universal Moto Guzzi. After more than eighty years, Carlo Guzzi’s design principles are still valid, and represent the true inspiration behind the Breva V 1100. But though our guidelines are the same, motorcycling has changed dramatically over the decades. Motorcyclists have evolved; today they are demanding and attentive, and have acquired a thorough understanding of technology. It was with today’s riders in mind that Moto Guzzi designed the new Breva V 1100, a revolutionary machine made to the highest standards. The Breva V 1100 has all the credentials for success on today’s fiercely competitive market, and is Italy’s best ever answer to growing demand in the “naked” segment, now Europe’s most important area of the motorcycle market. The Breva excels as an unexaggerated tourer and a true all-rounder: it provides plenty of reasons for passion, but also has a passion for reason. Comfortable, easy to ride, lavishly equipped, and technically advanced, the Breva V 1100 is perfect for intensive daily use. It is made with everybody in mind, Guzzi fans who would never ride anything else, ex-Guzzi riders returning to the fold, and everybody seeking to discover the pleasures of Moto Guzzi’s unique riding style Moto Guzzi. How riding style becomes life style. You don’t have to copy a legend to follow in its footsteps. But you do need to share its spirit, and build on the elements behind its success. The Breva V 1100 project began by defining exactly what a Moto Guzzi is made of. The technical solutions that produce that Guzzi soul were then pieced together. The motorcycles made at Moto Guzzi’s historical factory at Mandello del Lario have always been unique combinations of innovation and tradition. Their design has become a classic, and their robustness and quality legendary. Universal motorcycles in every sense, they have become icons of Italian style and part of Italy’s creative heritage. This is the passionate new lifestyle for which the Breva V 1100 is designed, and all true motorcyclists will jump at the chance it offers of enjoying riding and life the Moto Guzzi way. The Breva V 1100 has all the power of Europe’s biggest motorcycle manufacturing group, plus the intelligence of a thorough, rational design, and, of course, the spirit and passion of Moto. A legend reborn. The Breva V 1100 shares many obvious similarities with the V7, starting from the protruding cylinders of the 90° V-Twin, Moto Guzzi’s recognised signature. The tireless thump of this mighty engine is the sound track that accompanies every ride, and total reliability and mighty pulling power from low revs are guaranteed too. Now electronic fuel injection has made this classic engine more docile and more responsive than ever, and a whole range of technical innovations have transformed it into a completely unit. Progress inevitably leads away from even the best starting points. That is why the Breva V 1100 has such intensely personal lines, the work of Marabese Design Studio. And that is why it features so many innovative technical solutions, like Moto Guzzi’s patented reactive shaft drive. These two examples alone give an idea of just how much real progress has been made. But the most significant and convincing tests were those conducted on the road. In its natural habitat, the Breva V 1100 shows its true mettle, inspires instant confidence, and delivers unique, hard-to-describe sensations that make up the bike’s great character and provide the fuel for true motorcycling passion. You have to ride the Breva to understand the significance of its name. Breva is the southerly wind that blows over Lake Como, bringing the good weather with it. This lucky name has already brought success to the 1100’s little sister, the Breva V 750, which the motorcycling public has welcomed with an enthusiasm beyond all expectations. The beauty of Moto Guzzi motorcycles was and still is technical beauty, in full view and never hidden away. The famous external flywheel of early Guzzis was a feature that attracted attention and praise for its courageous, eye-catching position. The Breva V 1100’s new cylinder heads and shaft drive are its direct heirs, mechanical components with ‘attitude’ that dramatically enhance the appearance of the bike. Rodolfo Frascoli of Marabese Design Studio, the man behind the Breva V 1100, drew inspiration from the V7 Special, Moto Guzzi’s most famous naked tourer. Designed for the American market in the late 1960s, the V7 was powered by a 757 cc version of the 90° V-Twin and carried equipment designed specifically for U.S. riders. Its smooth yet rugged lines are shared by the Breva V 1100, which interprets this classic of motorcycle design in a modern key, but with the same inimitably stylish results. In keeping with Moto Guzzi tradition, the Breva V 1100’s design concept was extremely simple: to make a modern naked tourer. But though clear and decisive, the bike’s visual impact is far from boring or banal. Its lines highlight its pleasant dynamics and sporting but unexaggerated nature. The Breva is totally original, but with clear historical inspiration. In keeping with Carlo Guzzi’s convictions, the Breva gives no room to technical frills, solutions that look good but only complicate motorcycling without bringing real benefits. On the Breva V 1100, technical innovation is practical, decisive and realistic, just like the original design concept. A great deal of design effort was put into the area around the engine. The seat is well shaped and extremely comfortable; the generous fuel tank permits great autonomy and ensures excellent riding ergonomics. The overall impression is of agility and dynamism, emphasised by side panels that stretch forward towards the front wheel, creating an aggressive looking front end and giving the impression that the bike is in perpetual motion, longing for speed. Yet not even these panels are there for beauty alone; they also serve the purpose of ensuring correct cylinder cooling and maximising ram air pressure. The instrumentation is complete and accurate down to the smallest detail; the special oval headlight gives superb illumination; the front mudguard is integrated in the fork legs; and to demonstrate Guzzi’s dedication to maximum functionality, a central aerodynamic spoiler designed in the wind tunnel improves air flow over the cylinders. The pleasure of a comfortable ride. On longer journeys, you can appreciate the excellent aerodynamics of the optional windshield, make full use of the autonomy afforded by the 23 litre tank, and use the generous capacity provided by the optional panniers and spacious under-seat storage compartment to carry all your personal effects. The special pannier mountings integrate perfectly into the overall design, maintaining the Breva’s sleek lines when the luggage is not fitted. Rider and machine are in constant, satisfying communication, with the futuristic instrument panel as visual focal point. Information is displayed on the active matrix LCD display, and the rider can dialog with the on-board computer using hand grip controls without having to take his hands off the handlebars. With Moto Guzzi, change is always for the better. Fun on all roads. The Breva V 1100 robust 45 mm fork with spring preload adjustment maintains trajectories with total precision, and the rear suspension eliminates all wobble out of bends and keeps the bike glued to the road at all times. The single sided swingarm, rising rate linkages and monoshock with adjustable preload and rebound adapt perfectly to all riding styles and road surfaces, and reactive shaft drive eliminates the variations in rear end action typical of conventional systems Rider and motorcycle can establish an instant rapport as a result. For example, the electronic fuel injection system features a stepper motor to ensure consistent idling and easy starting in all weather conditions. On the road, the system guarantees smooth and controllable power delivery with minimised fuel consumption and exhaust emissions. The new V-Twin complies with Euro 3 and CARB standards. Twin spark ignition and injectors located directly in the intake manifolds also improve combustion efficiency and performance. Maximum power is 63 kW (86 HP) at 7,500 rpm and maximum torque is 85 Nm at 6,800 rpm, impressive figures for any bike in this class. A high cruising speed, elasticity and stability of performance in all climates and at all altitudes are the strong points of an engine that delivers pleasure and satisfaction at all times rather than exaggerated performance for mere moments. Totally new engine design. All-new engine components. Superior performance from the word go. The crankcase, oil strainer and sump have all been redesigned to improve lubrication efficiency. The new configuration guarantees regular oil delivery under all conditions, especially during fierce braking and acceleration. Maintenance is easier too, because the oil filter is now external and instantly accessible. If it doesn’t exist, we invent it.
If Carlo Guzzi had loved apparently impossible challenges, some of the technical innovations that made his marque one of the most famous in the world would probably have never come about. “Reactive shaft drive” is the latest of these challenges, and your first ride on a Breva V 1100 will tell you that it has been won hands down. Once again Moto Guzzi technology offers riders the tangible benefits of constant, smooth power, with none of the jerking normally associated with shaft drives when the throttle is opened and closed, yet with all the traditional advantages of cleanliness and maintenance-free, silent running. Moto Guzzi’s determination to improve both comfort and performance has led to a completely redesigned gearbox too. The helical gear primary drive is now mounted on the clutch shaft and there is just one driven shaft. The new box also features an indexed gear selector with a sliding action desmodromic preselector. The result is a reduction in weight of over 2 kg compared to the old 6 speed box. The new unit is also extremely silently, finds neutral effortlessly, delivers super-slick changes and compares favourably with the best international competition. The new Moto Guzzi range. Every trip is a journey. The journey is more important than the destination. The knee-down excursion on tortuous roads, the leisurely cruise across the continent in company, even the simplest commuting between home and office all have a common denominator - the pleasure of riding your motorcycle, soothed by the throb of the 90° V-Twin, in the seat of the maximum expression of technology and Italian creativity. The new range reflects this idea and applies it to all the facets of motorcycling today. The custom segment has always expressed the purest and most direct essence of freedom and is well represented by the Nevada 750 Classic and California Classic, two motorcycles immune to the passage of time. The naked segment is also fierce, with the Breva 750, agile and robust as a genuine Moto Guzzi, its big sister the Breva 1100, attractive and fun to ride. Completing the picture is the extraordinary Griso 1100, a flash of originality and passion to be enjoyed down to the last drop. Every future trip on the back of a Moto Guzzi will not just be a pleasure, but also more "cleaner", with the Euro3 engines fitted on the entire range.
