The V65 was Moto Guzzi’s compact, lighter alternative to its big-block V-twins, introduced in the early 1980s with a 90-degree transverse V-twin, shaft drive and the characteristic Guzzi layout, but in a more manageable size. The Custom version added a relaxed riding position with high handlebars, a stepped dual seat, cast alloy wheels and a cruiser-inspired look, and it became a popular choice for riders who wanted a distinctive Italian motorcycle with a modest weight and lively character. This example is finished in cream with brown and orange tank lines and comes with hard luggage cases. According to the seller the paint is original, the clutch is new and the fuel tank has been treated with Tankerite. The motorcycle is registered in the Italian historic register of the Federazione Motociclistica Italiana (FMI), and the Registro Storico plaque is shown in the photographs. The odometer reads 50000 km. The photographs also show the periodic inspection record with the recorded kilometres, the instruments, the handlebar controls and the chrome mudguards. Compact, easy to handle and wearing its original paint, the V65 Custom is an appealing and affordable way to own a genuine Moto Guzzi. Condition of the bodywork & paint 3 — Good.
