2006 Moto Guzzi California Touring

California Touring - An evergreen legend;

When you think of California, you think of open spaces, never ending straight roads, horizons moving ever closer. Its unmistakable silhouette, relaxed riding position and reassuring throb of the engine have written chapters of motorcycling history, winning a place for Italian inventiveness, style and technology even in the homeland of cruisers. A legend which has never stopped travelling down roads the whole world over and which has never stopped evolving and developing year after year. The sign of continuity with the past is the 90° V-Twin engine, retaining all its former qualities but updated to the point of appearing completely different from the original. It has been further reworked for the 2006 season, inheriting the thermal elements from the Breva 1100. But the feeling immediately established with a California is not just a matter of the engine alone. The traditional handling and riding pleasure offered by one of Moto Guzzi's historic models have been increased with the introduction of an improved and more efficient braking pressure distributor. The most recent version of the legendary California also has a new look, enhanced with new graphics and attractive details such as the new throttle body guards which further emphasise the curves of the tank. Its touring heart is emphasised further by the rich standard fittings. The integrated front fairing improves aerodynamic protection, while at the rear a 45 litre top box, coordinated with the panniers, increases carrying capacity. Riding comfort is incomparable, thanks to the foot guards, perfectly integrated with the look of the motorcycle as a whole, and heated handgrips. For no-limits riding pleasure, even in bad weather.
