Thousands of bikers rode their Moto Guzzis to the plant in Mandello, Italy. They rode in from Europe as well as Australia, China, Japan and the United States. The bikers gathered in Mandello to celebrate Moto Guzzi’s 95th anniversary which is a traditional mid-September event for the Italian brand.
The motorcycle manufacturer opened the doors of its factory and historic museum between September 9 and September 11. It was an opportunity for fans and enthusiasts to see how their favourite Guzzis are made as well as have a look at the brand’s history. Motorcyclists had the chance to ride the current Moto Guzzi range, and more than 700 riders threw a leg over the V7II bikes (Stone, Racer, Special and brand new Stornello), the California 1400 SE Touring, the Eldorado, the Audace, as well as the V9 STI Bobber and Roamer versions.
One of the most visited locations was the engine assembly line. Second came the Historic Museum that houses more than 150 motorcycles, from the GP bikes of its origins to the MGS-01, as well as the first Normale model produced in 1921. The program also included concerts, live music and street food.
