MOTO GUZZICalifornia Vintage 2009 - 2010

　　Over its production time, the California model evolved into numerous versions with similar appearances and slightly different specifications, like the Moto Guzzi California Vintage version that debuted in 2006.

　　In 2009, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer launched the Moto Guzzi California Vintage, a cruiser motorcycle with the same technical, visual, and performance specifications as the previous model without any significant modifications.

　　The bike was introduced at the 2005 Milan Motorcycle Show in November and released into the cruising world in 2006. The bike celebrated the 35th anniversary of the first California model that debuted in 1971.

　　The California Vintage borrowed some engine parts from the Moto Guzzi Breva 1100 model, like the engine block, which shortened the bike's length, while other elements were lighter. In addition, the power was also somewhat subdued.

　　Visually, the bike was fitted with features such as wire-spoke wheels, a dual exhaust system with a muffler on each side, side-mounted panniers, a luggage rack, a one-piece double seat with a passenger grab handle, a tall windscreen, and a round headlight between two passing lights.

　　In the performance department, the 2009 Moto Guzzi California Vintage had its soul brought to life by a 1,064cc four-stroke air-cooled V-twin engine mounted underneath its stylish fuel tank, boasting 75 hp at 6,400 rpm and 88 Nm (65 lb-ft) torque at 5,000 rpm.
