Post Listing Update: This Cal Vin did not meet reserve despite 3 bids up to $5,200 on eBay.
In 2006, Moto Guzzi brought back the California name for a new model, but the additional word of “Vintage” in the title tells you what this is all about – vintage styling with modern components.
The 1,064cc twin produced 72 horsepower, but a bike like this isn’t about horsepower figures. The 580 pound dry weight was significantly lighter than competition from Harley, and the Guzzi was actually cheaper at $14,990. The big trade-off was a dealer network that was sparse, at best.For a long term review on the Cal Vin, check out this story on Moto Guzzi California.
This example (VIN: ZGUKDU005AM112479) has just over 5,000 miles, and that’s why the seller is getting rid of it – in his words, “I simply don’t ride it enough to justify keeping it”. The seller claims it looks and runs like new, but someone else needs to put miles on it.
