Moto Guzzi AudaceCarbon (2017)

The Moto Guzzi Audace Carbon is a striking declaration of the brand’s modern soul and future, boasting a sleek all-black theme and aggressive styling. Powered by the potent 1380cc v-twin engine, this Italian thoroughbred unleashes a commanding 89 lb-ft of torque at a mere 3,000 rpm, making it an absolute blast to ride.

With its restyled bars and secondary air system, the Audace Carbon is not only a head-turner but also a technologically advanced machine, meeting Euro 4 compliance with ease. The engine’s character is perfectly suited for both urban and touring duties, thanks to its three riding modes: Veloce, Turismo, and Pioggia.

But what truly sets the Audace Carbon apart is its exceptional riding experience, made even more exhilarating with the optional Moto Guzzi Multimedia Platform (MG-MP) that connects the bike to your smartphone, providing real-time data and enhancing the overall riding experience.
