Moto Guzzi

Regular guests It may look as if UNIKAT have a subscription on our platform. Nothing of the sort, but the Polish team just keeps on churning out pure art that we simply cannot ingnore. This time it is a 2001 Moto Guzzi California 1100, which was transformed from a nice bike [...]

We’re gonna be honest, we are a sucker for lists. More specifically, end-of-the-year-top-5-motorcycle lists! It’s one of those things that we never can seem to get enough of. Whether you’re sitting with your friends or family, or on the workfloor with your colleagues, top 5 lists always add flavour to the [...]

Racing Heritage Moto Guzzi exists exactly 100 years this year, and that is a reason for celebration. We would like to pay a special tribute to modified Moto Guzzi’s here at BikeBrewers. A Guzzi is an interesting looking machine, and when you sit and ride on one, you’ll also notice that [...]

Tough as Nails If you see the man in real-life, it is quite easy to feel intimidated by his sheer size in both length and width. The long hairy beard adds to the tough-guy-factor as well. But honestly, the reality couldn’t be more different. Nick Keen is the exact opposite of [...]

Running a store from the shed We have been following Ferry Westerlaken for quite some time now. Not so much for his wrenching skills, but more from a business perspective. He runs ace-caferacerparts, an online shop from his hometown Dussen in the Netherlands, where you can buy lots of interesting goodies [...]

As a Moto Guzzi V7 Racer rider myself, Guzzi’s always get my attention. This V9 Gannet Moto Guzzi is a pure racer with tight stance and proportions. It is a radical transformation from a relaxed cruiser configuration of the Moto Guzzi V9 “Roamer” donor bike, which got designed into a pure [...]

It’s been a while since we’ve heard from Lucky Custom from Argentina, but their Honda VF750 Cafe Racer still is one of the most popular posts here on BikeBrewers. With this machine, they went viral and the bike still pops up all around the interwebs. Today I received some images of their [...]

Yes! You’re right! Better late than never! This is the list of the 21 best custom motorcycles of 2017! Last year we did a voting based on the stats of popular bikes that year but this time we kept things much simpler. So no hard data, voting system, social statistics, or fancy [...]

Boys will be boys When it comes to his background Tim Woolener shares a common ground with many of us I guess. Starting off at the age of 12 riding a Rayleigh runabout moped on some wasteland near his childhood home. Sounds familiar? He has come a long way since then [...]

Yes! Another cool build from our friends at Wrench Kings! And it’s another beautiful Moto Guzzi V7. It’s a project commissioned by Vanguard Jeans and the Kings worked closely together with Gannet Design from Germany.  Ulfert Janssen from Gannet: “In celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Moto Guzzi V7 and [...]

The Moto Guzzi V7 is one of the most beautiful Motorcycles of all time*. The V7 has a history that goes back into the 50s of the 20th century and the first road legal machines were built for the police back in 1967. The concept of the motorcycle never changed and Moto Guzzi [...]

While some may have a 12 month motorcycle season, here in Holland we’re glad if we can ride 6 or 7 months a year. Of course, there are some hardcore purists who ride all year, but unless you have a Husqvarna with ski’s, I wouldn’t recommend it. But the spring kicked [...]

Last week I’ve featured an incredible Moto Guzzi Griso Tracker which was a one of the finalists in Moto Guzzi’s “Lord of the Bikes”; a custom motorcycle battle. The Tracker was a winner in the 3rd round and here I have another one I’d really like to share with you. It’s actually [...]

If you’re a motorcycle brand without a custom motorcycle battle, you don’t fit in anymore. The last couple of years, several brands had their own battle: we’ve had the Custom Rumble from Ducati, Project Scout from Indian and Operation Octane from Victory Motorcycles. Moto Guzzi started in 2016 with “Lord of Bikes” [...]

The guys from Radical Guzzi in Germany really know what they’re doing. Earlier this year they got a lot of attention with their massive California 1400 cafe racer and today we’ve got our hands on a new project of them. Not really retro, but also no supersport. It’s a class of it’s own. The so [...]

Since the Guzzi V7 in it’s latest “retro” form was released back in 2008 I knew that I would own one myself some day. And now I do; I’m the happy owner of a 2014 V7 Racer. So yes, I have a slight preference on the V7… The V7 is a [...]
