MOTO GUZZICalifornia Jackal 1999 - 2000

　　In 1999, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer launched the Moto Guzzi California Jackal. Compared to the California model, which became opulent with its Brembo brakes, top-notch rims, and front suspension, the Jackal was a lower-spec bike intended to enhance the user base.

　　The California Jackal model was the no-frills version of the California EV machine. In addition, the Jackal was named the California Stone in 2001, and later just Stone to be differentiated in the market.

　　In the visual department, the Jackal had equipped standard fittings, such as a round headlight with one instrument on top, a valanced fender on the front, a teardrop-styled fuel tank, a one-piece dual seat, side-mounted rear shocks, a dual-exhaust system, and lightweight wire-spoke wheels with chromed rims.

　　It was built around a double-cradle steel frame with a 45 mm Marzocchi telescopic fork on the front, offering 130 mm of travel and twin shocks on the rear with 89 mm wheel travel, providing optimum suspension performance and handling.

　　The braking performance was achieved by two 320 mm brake discs mounted on the front wheel engaged by four-piston calipers and a 282 mm disc mounted on the rear wheel, operated by a dual-piston caliper.

　　Power-wise, the 1999 Moto Guzzi California Jackal had its soul brought to life by a 1.064cc four-stroke air-cooled V-twin engine that delivered an output power of 73 hp at 6,400 rpm and 94 Nm (69 lb-ft) torque at 5,000 rpm.
