2007 Moto Guzzi California Classic Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Engineered by Moto Guzzi for the custom - cruiser motorcycle segment, the 2007 Moto Guzzi California Classic relies on a 1064 cc (64.9 cu in) air-cooled v2, four-stroke powerplant. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 92.0 x 80.0 mm (3.6 x 3.1 inches) with a 9.8:1 compression ratio.

On the scales, the California Classic measures 251 kg (553 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 762 mm (30 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,560 mm (61.4 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 14-liter (3.7 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
