2006 Moto Guzzi
EV Touring
The Open Road Champ
It's that classic tradition of "Gran Turismo"
experiencing the open road in the grand European touring style
that makes the 2006 California EV Touring such a perfect
choice for modern-day adventurers. From the moment this
Italian interpretation of the American cruiser concept carves
through the first curve, you'll feel ready for endless journeys
or short jaunts, should your next adventure be just around
the very next corner.
The lines of the California EV Touring are timeless. While
other bikes may try too hard in order to get a second look, this
Italian classic captures attention for its always-elegant stance.
Moto Guzzi's passion for heritage is apparent right from
the start, including standard equipment styling cues like the
bike's cruiser teardrop-shaped tank, chrome trim and spoke wheels.
But, when it comes to technology, the California EV Touring is
all about modern-day requirements. The 90° V-Twin features
self-adjusting hydraulic tappets for a unique combination of
a quiet but distinctive engine note and incredibly low maintenance.
And, a three way catalytic converter with Lambda probe ensures
ultra-low emissions.
 Whether ridden easy
or aggressively, the California EV Touring's engine performs
smoothly and predictably. At low revs, performance is enhanced
by a balancer pipe between the two cylinders. Under aggressive
riding conditions, an oil jet piston cooling system increases
engine thermal efficiency and extends engine life.
In addition to Moto Guzzi's legendary engine, every adventurer
needs great equipment to get safely and comfortably to the next
destination. From heated grips that keep hands warm even during
winter rides to protective foot guards and running boards, the
EV Touring has been designed to keep riders comfortable and focused
on the road ahead. Standard Touring equipment also includes
color-matched hard side-cases for securely stowing travel gear
and goods, which makes the California EV Touring always ready
for short- or long-term action. Can't leave home without
staying connected? A 12 Volt power socket lets you charge phones
or other can't-live-without-'em gadgets while you're on the go.
The 2006 Moto Guzzi EV Touring has an MSRP of $13,490.
