Co kupujący powinni wiedzieć
Unique 90° V-Twin
The 853cc transverse V-twin engine is a distinctive Moto Guzzi signature, offering smooth low-end torque and a characterful riding experience unlike Japanese or American alternatives. Its shaft drive also eliminates chain maintenance entirely.
Watch for Electrical Gremlins
Some owners report minor electrical issues including ECU glitches and instrument cluster faults, particularly on early 2016-2018 models. Always verify the wiring harness and check for dealer-issued software updates before buying used.
Strong Resale Value
The V9 Bobber holds its value well due to its niche Italian heritage and relatively low production numbers compared to mainstream brands. A well-maintained example typically retains 70-80% of its value after three years.

Recenzja używanego kupującego
"Flawed but deeply lovable — buy one with your heart, not spreadsheet."
$6,500-$9,500 usedThe V9 Bobber is one of those bikes that makes you feel like you're riding something genuinely special rather than just commuting. That 853cc V-twin pulls with real character — lazy, torquey, and completely addictive below 4,000rpm. It's not fast, and Guzzi never pretended it was. What it is, though, is deeply satisfying in a way that numbers can't capture. The shaft drive is bulletproof and eliminates chain maintenance entirely, which used buyers should love. That said, go in with eyes open. Early 2017-2018 models had fueling issues that caused surging at low speeds — some owners fixed it with a tune, some lived with it forever. The suspension is genuinely soft for anyone over 180 pounds, and the seat becomes medieval after about 90 minutes. Parts availability through Guzzi dealers can be patchy depending on your region, so factor in that reality before committing.
