In recent years there has been a nice trend of cooperation between large companies and customizers. Multimillion-dollar companies support creative people, sponsoring extremely interesting projects: BMW R90S Ninety - Roland Sands, Yamaha Yard Built - Wrenchmonkees and Deus Ex Machine, and many other projects. However, the Barbican Filippo (Filippo Barbacane) from the workshop of “ Officine Rossopuro “was one of the first. Italian customizer has been reworking motorcycles Moto Guzzi, and is probably the leading authority on Italian motorcycles with longitudinal V-shaped engine.
MoriMoto - one of the latest projects Filippo. This time, the Italian artist used as a basis for an interesting motorcycle Moto Guzzi Bellagio 940. It is worth noting that in the past the Barbican collaborated with Moto Guzzi, when the Italian brand reborn after years of neglect. Then, at the request of the Italian Guzzi guru developed a prototype based on the Moto Guzzi California III, making a bike in the style of the original V7, but with Öhlins suspension and kafereyserskim body.
Unfortunately, in those years, the concept proved to be unsustainable, because the Italian manufacturer was not ready for such radical solutions. Since then, Filippo had only to wait a moment to once again put their ideas on the concept of V7 Sport, although it is now used more modern Italian chassis and suspension.
Filippo believes that the frame Moto Guzzi Bellagio is perfect for the new Moto Guzzi V7. Of course, the company Moto Guzzi has no relation to the project, but the Italian master considers it a continuation of past cooperation, which had loigcheskogo completion. By the way, ordered the French motorcycle rider, which is important for not only the appearance but also the motorcycle ride quality and fit and comfort.
