About Moto Guzzi Bikes
Moto Guzzi, the oldest European motorcycle manufacturer in continuous production, has a rich history dating back to 1921. Founded by the visionary trio of Carlo Guzzi, Giorgio Parodi, and Angelo Parodi. This iconic brand is now a subsidiary of Piaggio & C. SpA.

The establishment of “The Clan,” a global community of Moto Guzzi enthusiasts, further solidified the brand’s legacy, offering exclusive access to news, previews, behind-the-scenes insights, rallies, and special events.

Moto Guzzi has been known for introducing various innovations over the years. They are the first to bring a motorcycle with a centre stand, a wind tunnel-tested fairing, and the first motorcycle with a sidecar wheel leaning with the bike.
