The first version of the Breva model was introduced in 2003 and was based on the pre-existing Moto Guzzi Nevada but with a Weber-Marelli Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) system, previously used only on big block motorcycles like the California and V11.
The Breva model was made in several versions: the Breva V750 ie from 2003 to 2011, the Breva V1100 from 2005 to 2011, the Breva 750 Touring and 850 from 2006 to 2011, and the Breva V1200 from 2008 to 2011.
In 2007, the Italian motorcycle producer released the Moto Guzzi Breva 1100, a larger displacement version of the Breva 750 model, taking the proven performance to the next level but retaining the same character imposed by the House of Mandello del Lario.
The 2007 model featured the same technical, visual, and performance specifications as the previous one without significant modifications.
The bike was manufactured around a detachable tubular duplex cradle steel frame with a 40 mm adjustable Marzocchi fork guiding the 17-inch front wheel and a single-sided swingarm coupled to a single shock absorber handling the 17-inch rear wheel.
As for the power figures, the 2007 Moto Guzzi Breva 1100 had installed a 1,064cc four-stroke air-cooled V-twin engine underneath its fuel tank. The engine was fed by an electronically controlled fuel injection system, boasting 86 hp at 7,800 rpm and 87 Nm (64 lb-ft) torque at 6,000 rpm.
