Born in 1974, the 750S is the latest version of the celebrated V7 Sport. The black bodywork with the diagonal colourful stripes, together with its black exhausts make this bike one of the most aggressive and sporty on the market; it's a stock cafe-racer. Certainly one of the most beautiful and engaging bikes ever, its charm never fades. The S is the faster among the V7s and can offer great performance! The rather compact riding position allows the rider to become one with the bike and fully appreciate its formidable chassis. Riding lines are always clean and precise even at high speed. Riding on curvy roads is amazing, even for riders used to the great performance of modern bikes. The powerful engine braking of the large V-twin, together with the double front disc provides excellent safety when braking. The power delivery of the engine is linear even at low revs and makes touring very pleasant. The gear lever is on the left but the gear positions are reversed, with the first up; this will be really appreciated by those who are used to the track! Other people will need to pay a bit more attention to this. The beautiful flared seat with tail is comfortable and the vibrations are acceptable. The weight of this bike could be a problem when placing it on the centre stand, but the setup is so well balanced that you will forgive the few extra pounds for an excellent ride. Despite its strong and aggressive character, the 750 S can be easily ridden and will provide great enthusiasm for the medium/experienced rider.
