Moto Guzzi Audace 1400

The Moto Guzzi Audace 1400 has a top speed of 200 km/h (estimated; manufacturer limited), produces 96 hp and weighs 317 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.5/10.

Moto Guzzi Audace 1400, 2015 yılında California 1400 ailesi içinde karanlık özel bir kruvazör varyantı olarak tanıtıldı ve platformunu California 1400 Custom ile paylaştı, ancak karartılmış bileşenler ve daha düşük bir duruş ile daha agresif, soyulmuş bir bagger estetiği benimsedi. Büyüyen karanlık/bobber kruvazör segmentinde rekabet etmek için tasarlandı ve Amerikan V-ikiz kruvazörlerine farklı bir Avrupa alternatifi arayan binicilere hitap etti. Audace, uzunlamasına monte edilmiş 1.380cc V-twin motoru, şaft tahriki ve üstün İtalyan işçiliği ile öne çıktı ve kruvazör sınıfında nadir görülen yol tutuş özellikleriyle övgü aldı.

Unique 90° V-Twin

The Audace's 1380cc transverse V-twin engine runs cooler and smoother than most cruiser V-twins due to its 90-degree cylinder angle, reducing vibration significantly. This design also contributes to long-term engine reliability when maintained properly.

Watch the Electrics

Early Audace models (2015-2017) had reported issues with electrical gremlins, including faulty sensors and infotainment glitches — always inspect wiring and test all electronics before buying used. Later models saw notable improvements in this area.

💰

Strong Resale Value

The Audace holds its value better than many cruiser competitors due to its niche Italian heritage and limited production numbers, making it a relatively safe used purchase financially. Its distinctive styling keeps demand steady among enthusiast buyers.

Için en iyisi
Experienced riders craving authentic Italian cruiser character

"A deeply individual machine that rewards patience and punishes impatience."

$8,500-$13,500 used

The Audace is one of those bikes that either grabs you immediately or leaves you completely cold. If you're drawn to it, you already know why — that raw, exposed 1400cc V-twin sitting proud between your knees, those wide bars, the whole stripped-back bagger aesthetic done properly Italian. It's genuinely unlike anything else on the market, and used examples from 2016-2020 represent decent value if you find a clean one. Here's the honest bit though: this is a slow bike that feels fast. The engine is torquey and characterful rather than outright powerful, and the handling demands respect — it's heavy, it pushes wide in corners if you're impatient, and the brakes are merely adequate. Electrically, early models had teething issues worth checking. Budget for the dealer network reality — Guzzi specialists are thin on the ground in most markets, so factor in travel time and parts delays. Buy it because you want a statement machine with real mechanical soul. Don't buy it expecting German precision or Japanese reliability. It rewards patient, experienced riders who appreciate quirk over clinical competence.
