2023 Moto Guzzi V100 Mandello | A HUGE STEP FORWARD

[@helgejohan3604]

Moto Guzzi V100 Motor performance 9/10 chassie 8/10 design 9/10 great bike ✊🔥🔥

[@phildaniels1214]

Looks like Guzzi have got the mix of style, quality, tech and tradition perfect. I also love the way it pings as it cools down, just like the air cooled ones!

[@redangrevival]

👌 They have done a fantastic job with it, such a big step forward for them. Really quality bike but still retaining that very special feeling that Guzzi's have. Cheers

[@basdebruin2355]

I am Dutch and more important, a Guzzi fan (have 2 Guzzi’s). Dutch means somewhat tall/big and I adjusted seat heights and positioning dimensions on both of my bikes to what I like. Riding a Guzzi, for me, is more of an experience than riding any bike I had before (BMW, Yamaha, Honda (few different types). I think it is important what you preference is. If it is a big twin with the accent on torque instead of revs, Guzzi is a nice choice. 15 years ago I switched to Guzzi. A very good friend of me introduced me int the world of Guzzi. If you like to do your own maintenance (like me) the Guzzi is prevailing as well. It is somehow ‘zen’ to do. From my Guzzi heart point of few, I fully agree with your point of view. In my point of view, you produced an honest, clear and well balanced topic. Thank you.

[@redangrevival]

Hi, thanks so much I really appreciate that and glad you enjoyed the review 👍 Absolutely Moto Guzzi is all about the riding experience and involvement! They have done a great job with this new V100 to update it but still retain the Guzzi character. Thanks and hope you continue to enjoy your rides.

[@renes9966]

How tall are you? I am 195cm and am curious to how you adapted your Guzzis. I love the bikes but assumed they would be suited to short people only !

Last year (2021), I started bird-dawgin this Italian beauty. In September 2022, I gave Plano, Texas USA Moto Guzzi a $500 deposit. Early in the morning of 10/17/2022, on the Moto Guzzi USA web store, I entered my online “reservation” for the 2023 V100 Mandello “S” in “Centenario” Livery (premium Verde 2121 color) - Special Edition $17,490. The customer care representative told me my Order# 190 was the 1st V100 Mandello order received by Moto Guzzi USA. I’m SUPER EXCITED! To me, the V100 Mandello is STUNNINGLY EXOTIC & HANDSOME!

[@redangrevival]

Massive congratulations on your order 👌 A stunning bike and am sure you will love it. Also will feel all the more special on such a rare edition.

I put in my order for an S model yesterday, should receive it in about a month. At just over 6 ft I found the seat-to-footpeg dimension a little cramped so I will fit the accessory high heated seat, it is 20 mm higher. ps. This is the first time I have seen donkeys in England outside the Houses of Parliament!

[@josephlarmor550]

I agree, the front mudguard looks completely pointless. It’s so small I can’t really see now any sort of effective extender can be fitted. The front of the engine is going to take a pounding, and as for the radiator, surely it’s only a matter of time before it’s holed! Otherwise a lovely looking bike

Red what happened I missed this one on the notifications , Good one I like it probably the best looking Guzzi I have seen although the others are good looking bikes . Not cheap but nothing is these days except Royal Enfield and they are great value bikes .From what you say maybe not a bike for the autobahns in Germany but we don't all ride there .Good and an impressive bike 😉👌👍

Glad you found the vid 👍 I agree, think it is the best looking Guzzi and probably all round sports tourer as well. Such a great improvement for Guzzi, really impressive to ride and the build quality is top notch. Cheers

[@Brian-tb1zs]

I think I want one in the garage! Love how unique it is, I prefer low down torque motors. Love the artistic looks. I’ll never get rid of my R1250GS, I can see this Guzzi in the garage with it, for a different riding option. 👍 in Red, not a fan of the white and gold 🤔

[@thomasneedham1512]

You were shifting a bit early as the new Guzzi engines like to put on some revs. I love my V85TT but the more I see of the V100, it is getting me wondering if I should trade next year. You can lock the vent wings in or out all the time.

[@redangrevival]

Yes, it was a tricky area to ring out the revs! I personally think this would be a brilliant trade in for the V85TT 👍 They have really up'd their game with this new V100, very impressive. Cheers

If these avoid the "handmade in Italy" foibles I expect, they'll be a great purchase in 10 years when they're affordable. Lovely looking bike.

I hate the term "adventure bike "coined by the marketing department and am glad this is not pushed as such. You have adventures on ALL motorcycles. It is not the privallage of those ridiculously tall things that you need a step ladder to mount! This machine is gorgeous. I need one!

[@redangrevival]

Although I am not too much against the term, I completely agree with you that you can have adventures on all motorbikes 👍 Definitely not restricted to a certain type of bike. Same think Guzzi have done a fantastic job with this bike and think the sports touring aspect is a great direction. Cheers

[@Banditmanuk]

Great to see a manufacturer build a proper sports touring machine. Such a great looking bike. 👌 Personally, I don't understand the popularity of tall adventure bikes as touring bikes. Only unknown is how reliable this new engine is. Who is going to be a new adopter?

[@redangrevival]

👍 I do hope there is some sort of a come back to the traditional sports tourer bike. I actually really like adventure bikes and can see their benefits, however not to the expense of ignoring great sports tourers. The more bikes the merrier 😁 Cheers

[@thomasneedham1512]

Guzzi has had mules using the engine on the road for several years based on reports from Lario Mandello. There will of course, be glitches but Guzzi reliability on their bikes is much better than the old days of Italian bikes and cars.

Thanks Angus. I'm a Guzzi fan, and a sports tourer fan (and a Speedmaster fan). I'm interested in how you think this compares to the BMW R1250RS- someone else mentioned this, I think. I love my RS, but you have the benefit of owning neither the Guzzi or BMW. Push come to shove...which would you have? (And no, you're not allowed a GS...)

[@redangrevival]

That is a tricky question! To be completely honest I think I would go for the R1250RS, because of the extra power. However I think I may live to regret it haha Need to ride both again, but atm I would go BMW

Tha ks for the video. As you know I have pre ordered the tracer gt+ co firmed prices now at £15000. This guzzi is so so tempting for me. Such a pretty bike and got some awesome features. However I would pick the S model and speccd up with panniers and top box this bike is going to £1500 more than the tracer gt+ and even though this bike trumps the tracer on looks and maybe character the yamaha wins in every other department.. Still not 100% convinced yet depends how much commision I earn in the next few months 😅😅

[@redangrevival]

It is my pleasure, really glad you liked the video 👍 Yes these two bikes really are very close competitors. Very tough decision, I really enjoyed the V100 and think it is a very special bike.

Hello! Thanks for another very nice test ride review on this different sport touring bike. Would like to know your comparison opinion about how it feels comparing with the Japanese touring bikes that you’ve tested before, namely the Suzuki S1000GT and the Kawasaki Ninja 1000 SX? ✌️✌️

[@redangrevival]

Hi, it is my pleasure, really glad you enjoyed the review 👍 I think the handling has slightly similar characteristics, as in likes nice long smooth corners etc... However the engine is vastly different! The Ninja and Suzuki are a lot faster and more exciting engines to rev out (being inline 4 cylinders). However the Guzzi has lovely useable low down torque and is full of character. I would like to ride them back to back to find out.

[@Fernando90054]

@@redangrevival Thank you for giving here your personal opinion. I think that I understood it well. Maybe the Japanese being of a more sportish nature, they invite the biker to ride faster, like the BMW S 1000 XR or the SDGT (one is a screamer and the other one a Beast). The Guzzi is more a roadster machine with touring capabilities, it compels you to drive fast but at slower top end speeds (isn't it?). We have, as riders, the decision how to ride the bike, but at the same time, the bike can transmit you what she's more able to do and that ends influencing our way of riding, I believe.

[@redangrevival]

@@Fernando90054 Very well put 👍Very much agree, you can still ride fast on it but lower top end. Both styles have their own appeals

[@carlosalonso9866]

@@Fernando90054 Hi, I'm moved by the same curiosity as you. I have a keen interest in the V100 as it would make a great tourer, torquey engine, shaft drive, decent protection, luggage. I do weekend tours and motorcycle on my motorbike, used to have a GS, moved to a Ninja 1000sx which I love. I compared it to the S1000XR and although both have four-inline engines, the Ninja's is very different, it's much more useable low down, you don't have to rev it that hard to get a decent response and thanks to the extremely elastic engine you can ride it quite relaxed, knowing that there's enough power if you want it. My only two doubts with regard to the Mandello is whether it won't feel a little bit "underpowered" compared to the Ninja as there's a 25hp gap for the same weight, I can't wait for a face-to-face comparison

[@Fernando90054]

@@carlosalonso9866 Yes, your fears may be confirmed. The truth from my point of view is that in this case the phrase less is more, doesn’t apply. What I think in fact, is as follows:- if you have a powerful bike, you can always make use of it if you want, even if you don’t have on public roads a lot of opportunity to do so, in a safe way. But you know that it’s there at your disposal. Other thing, is that you have a not so powerful bike, but you have torque and a very nice low and medium range power band response, but no top end speed. This, is annoying to me. I want a bike that even when I ride relaxed and chill, I feel all the power beneath my seat, just waiting for me to unleash it , if it is my desire.

@@redangrevival I dont think it has to do with aircooled though. The old bikes had no ballancer shafts, counter rotating flywheels to mitigate vibrations, stuff like that.
