Positioned in Moto's classic motorcycle lineup, the 2020 Moto Guzzi V7 III Rough features a 744 cc (45.4 cu in) air-cooled v2, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, maximum torque reaches 60 Nm (44.3 lb-ft) at 4,900 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and shaft drive (cardan) final drive. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 80.0 x 74.0 mm (3.1 x 2.9 inches).
Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 770 mm (30.3 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,445 mm (56.9 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 21-liter (5.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
