filming sessions, Renner’s part had
some seriously big hits in it.
Moto 7 definitely follows the same
pattern as Moto 6, though possibly
with a bit more of a documentary feel

definitely got us excited to go ride! For
anyone looking for an all-round hit of

MX racing, enduro and freeride, Moto 7
is a must-see. T
