In 2009, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer launched the Moto Guzzi Breva 1100, a naked motorcycle that debuted in 2005. It was in its fifth year of production and came with the same specifications as the previous model, without significant modifications.
In addition to the Breva 1100 model, the maker produced several versions, such as the Breva V750 ie from 2003 to 2011, the Breva 750 Touring and 850 from 2006 to 2011, and the Breva V1200 from 2008 to 2011.
In the aesthetic department, the bike was equipped from the factory with standard features, such as a large round headlight up front with a small windscreen mounted on top, a one-piece dual seat with passenger grab rails, a two-into-one exhaust system, a single-sided swingarm with an integrated shaft drive, and three-spoke lightweight aluminum wheels.
The bike was built around a double-cradle high tensile steel frame that held the 1.064cc four-stroke air-cooled V-twin engine in place. The engine was married to a Weber Marelli fuel injection system and generated 86 hp at 7,800 rpm and 87 Nm (64 lb-ft) torque at 6,000 rpm.
The 17-inch front wheel was guided by a 40 mm adjustable Marzocchi fork and stopped by two 320 mm discs with four-piston calipers in charge, while the 17-inch rear wheel was handled by a single-sided swingarm with an adjustable shock and a 282 mm disc with a dual-piston caliper.
