User manual GUZZI BREVA 1100 BROCHURE

[. . . ] The Breva V 1100's excellent weight distribution makes it agile and responsive in sudden direction changes, while its powerful braking system acts as quickly as you can think. The front brakes feature two floating 320 mm discs with four-piston calipers, while the rear wheel is braked by a single 282 mm disc and a floating caliper with two parallel pistons. Long-stroke suspension soaks up the bumps of even the roughest road surfaces, pot-holes and speed bumps inclused, to bring you a unique level of comfort day after day. THE NAKED THAT LOVES TO LEAN The Breva V 1100 simply exudes sports style. Its side panels extend forwards, pointing at the road ahead, and this impression of dynamism is enhanced by the alternating solid and space around the engine. [. . . ] For example, the electronic fuel injection system features a stepper motor to ensure consistent idling and easy starting in all weather conditions. On the road, the system guarantees smooth and controllable power delivery with minimised fuel consumption and exhaust emissions. The new V-Twin complies with Euro 3 standards. Twin spark ignition and injectors located directly in the intake manifolds also improve combustion efficiency and performance. Maximum power is 63 kW (86 HP) at 7, 500 rpm and maximum torque is 85 Nm at 6, 800 rpm, impressive figures for any bike in this class. A high cruising speed, flexibility and stability of performance in all climates and at all altitudes are the strong points of an engine that delivers pleasure and satisfaction at all times rather than ultimate performance for mere moments. ALL-NEW ENGINE COMPONENTS The revolution in engine design starts right from the crankcase, which is totally new. Even the con-rods are improved, and 10% lighter than before. The ratio between con-rod length and piston stroke is also higher, to reduce the inertia of alternating mass and keep vibration down. The pistons are lighter and shorter than before, and the new, lighter piston rings are more efficient. The piston skirt has a new profile, and the gudgeon pin is now lubricated by two oil jets. The old Klingerite cylinder head gaskets have been replaced by more efficient metal gaskets for better thermal transfer and more constant stud action. In brief, the new engine is lighter, better lubricated and vibrates less, for a more comfortable ride and better performance. THE TECHNOLOGY OF COMFORT Moto Guzzi's passion for technical innovation has always set the company apart. Reactive shaft drive is the latest expression of technological evolution in pursuit of more comfortable motorcycling. Test ride a Breva V 1100 and see for yourself how, at Moto Guzzi, change is always for the better. (Cardano Reattivo Compatto ­ Compact Reactive Drive Shaft) system integrates the drive shaft inside the aluminium alloy swingarm. The drive gear and the drive shaft are free to oscillate inside the swing arm, and the shaft has a double universal joint with built-in torsional dampers for smoothness and precision. This solution presents a number of benefits: firstly built-in firstly the rear and rising effect so typical of conventional shaft drive systems is eliminated; secondly, the new system allows a single piece swingarm to be used, improving overall rigidity; finally, since the torque arm is no longer a load bearing structure, safety margins are improved too. Once again Moto Guzzi technology offers riders the tangible benefits of constant, smooth power, with none of the jerking normally associated with shaft drives when the throttle is opened and closed, yet with all the traditional advantages of cleanliness and maintenance-free, silent running. Moto Guzzi's determination to improve both comfort and performance has led to a completely redesigned gearbox too. The helical gear primary drive is now mounted on the clutch shaft and there is just one driven shaft. The new box also features an indexed gear selector with a sliding action desmodromic preselector. The result is a reduction in weight of over 2 kg compared to the old 6 speed box. [. . . ] The system comprises two boxes: the first, personalised with the Moto Guzzi logo, contains a carry-case and two remote controls, while the other contains the electronics, wiring and dedicated bracketry and hardware. Secure and reliable, this anti-theft system is also quick and easy to install.
