Moto Guzzi Triporteurs

Motorcycles and Powered Two- and Three-Wheelers

The Moto Guzzi Triporteurs were the three-wheeled load carrying motorcycles of the Moto Guzzi brand, known in Italy as motocarri. Their layout put the cargo behind the driver, which let the load be stacked high without blocking the view and made the steering slightly heavier when the machine was loaded. The first model, the Typo 107 of 1928, used the whole front end of a Moto Guzzi Sport with a frame screwed on, and the line then ran through the Sport 14 based tricycle, the military Mototriciclo 32 and the Motocarro S, to the Ercole that stayed in production until 1980, the small Ercolino, the Mulo Meccanico mountain vehicle and the light Dingotre and Furghino of the 1960s. During and after the Second World War motocarri were designed with specific military tasks in mind. This family entry covers the whole range, and the individual models are entries of their own.
