User manual GUZZI CALIFORNIA VINTAGE BROCHURE

[. . . ] CALIFORNIA VINTAGE CALIFORNIA VINTAGE PANNIERS A pair of 30 litre panniers with chrome plated mounting racks and key locking are the perfect enhancement for this bike's elegant lines. ENGINE The new engine uses the advanced cylinders and heads of the Breva 1100, with twin spark ignition and a catalytic exhaust system with Lambda probe oxygen sensor. The new engine therefore conforms easily to the strict limits imposed by Euro3 standards. FOG LIGHTS A pair of extra fog lights, controlled from the right hand switch block, assists the already powerful headlight. THE DISCREET CHARM OF TRADITION. Thirty-five years have gone by, but the Moto Guzzi California continues to play a leading role in the collective imagination of motorcyclists throughout the world. [. . . ] The reference to the past is obvious in the delightful spoked wheels, in the newly-designed steel mudguards, in the new Brembo front callipers with black finish and in the supplementary fog lights, controlled by a switch on the right block. In this model, attention is paid to the smallest detail - the windshield is decorated with a stainless steel strip and both the handlebar and twotone seat are exclusive to the model. The classic engine is protected by chromed steel tubes with integrated. The special bags are fixed, waterproof, lined and again protected with chromed steel tubes. The luggage rack is also chromed for a high-class touring look. The California Vintage is a precious object to be looked after with love and attention. Moto Guzzi has therefore also designed a special bike cover for this motorcycle where luxury is standard. While externally the California Vintage retains the same unmistakable look which brought it success throughout the world, technically it has been profoundly changed over the years and for the 2006 season it has undergone radical treatment. The engine has been almost entirely imported from the Breva 1100, with a considerable improvement in performance. The heads, cylinders, conrods, pistons, sintered valve seats and guides and Nymonic exhaust valves come from the Mandello del Lario naked and inherit its power characteristics. The alternator has also been improved and the flywheel is new. Combustion is more efficient thanks to the twin spark cylinder heads, while the timing system is entrusted to the well-proven mechanical tappets.
