MOTO GUZZIV10 Centauro Sport 1998 - 2001

　　The Moto Guzzi V10 Centauro was a naked road bike made by Moto Guzzi from 1996 until 2001 in only 1,918 units to celebrate the company's 75th anniversary. It was in the same family as the Moto Guzzi Daytona 1000 IE.

　　The motorcycle was designed by Luciano Marabese, the owner of Marabese Design, and was intended as Moto-Guzzi's proposal to enter the naked street sports motorcycles sector, which, at the time, experienced significant development.

　　In 1998, alongside the Moto Guzzi V10 Centauro GT, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer launched the Moto Guzzi V10 Centauro Sport, a sportier version of the standard model with a small fairing and a seat cover painted in red or green with white bands.

　　Both GT and Sport versions benefited from several improvements, such as introducing the adjustable handlebar and a side stand without automatic return. It was available in red with white stripes or English Green with white stripes.

　　The bike had standard features in the visual department, such as a small front cowl, a single seat, a dual exhaust system with a carbon fiber silencer on each side, an engine cowl, and three-spoke lightweight aluminum wheels.

　　As for the power figures, the 1998 Moto Guzzi V10 Centauro Sport had its soul brought to life by a 992cc four-stroke air-cooled V-twin engine, boasting 95 hp at 8,200 rpm and 98 Nm (72 lb-ft) torque at 5,800 rpm.
