MOTO GUZZICalifornia 1100 EV Touring 2001 - 2002

　　The Moto Guzzi California was a cruiser motorcycle produced by Moto Guzzi since 1971 as a replacement model for the Moto Guzzi 850 GT and ended production in 2021. The manufacturer produced a version almost continuously from 1971 to 2021.

　　In 2001, the Italian motorcycle maker released the Moto Guzzi California 1100 EV Touring into the touring world. It was the House of Mandello del Lario's flagship model and was fitted with touring amenities to better handle longer journeys.

　　At the front, the bike's headlight was integrated into a small cowl with a large windscreen that offered better wind protection. Besides the passenger backrest, the bike packed side-mounted 40-liter panniers on the rear, enhancing its on-board storage.

　　Besides its touring accessories, the bike packed the same standard features as previous models, including wire-spoke wheels, a teardrop-shaped fuel tank, a one-piece dual seat, and a dual exhaust system with a silencer on each side.

　　The 2001 Moto Guzzi California 1100 EV Touring retained the same performance specifications as the base model, delivering 74 hp with a peak force at 6,400 rpm and 94 Nm (69 lb-ft) torque at 5,000 rpm. Its engine was handled by an Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) system.

　　As for the stopping power, the machine was fitted with two 320 mm brake discs on the front and a 282 mm brake disc on the rear. The front ones were engaged by four-piston calipers, and the rear one was gripped by a dual-piston caliper.
