VENIER, VEDI, VICI. Venier Motorcycles? Moto Guzzi V7 Scrambler
Written by Marlon Slack
As cool as it is to see a build that screams ?custom,? there?s something to be said for a project that looks like it rolled off a factory floor. Some of us want to keep our frames standard, some of us want to be able to find replacement parts and some of us want to avoid carpal tunnel syndrome and piles. Thankfully there are builders like New York?s Venier Motorcycles, who have taken a different angle with their ?Tractor 05? – a sweet little 2015 Moto Guzzi V7 Scrambler designed to look like it rolled off the factory floor.
Now before everyone gets their knickers in a knot we know Moto Guzzi have tried doing the scrambler thing before. In 2015 Mandello del Lario released a confused-looking ?Stornello? scrambler model to mild applause. Designed as a limited edition it also held limited appeal, with a bland looking paint scheme and underwhelming, circuitous exhaust system. Cool grey. Cool bike
So while BMW and Triumph have continued to make factory Scramblers, Moto Guzzi have thrust their hands into their pockets and wandered away from the off-road scene. Which is a shame, as the Guzzi?s produced today are sweet little things and a bucket of fun to ride around. But what if they were to release one again" Venier Motorcycles decided to tackle the concept of a small block scrambler with a whole lot more subtlety and eye for design than the team at Guzzi were able to muster.
?The build is my take on what a Moto Guzzi Scrambler should be,? hea...
