Too big and powerful for me now Rik ( I'm 70 and had a heart attack on February 14th this year. ) But back in the day one would have been nice. I'm on a wee 600cc Honda shadow with low gravity. It suits me fine. Best wishes from the Belfast Castlereagh hills.

Got one just like this one. And I love it! And mine has definitely got a centre stand too.

+eriktheviking100 Classy looking machine eriktheviking100. I'm a wee bit envious! Everyone raves about the various Harley Davidsons but I reckon I'd rather have this bike. And yes I eventually found the centre stand. lol -Should have gone to specsavers.

+Tom McClean Just get one Tom... you know you want it! For a big cruiser it is fantastically easy to ride and handles nimbly and effortlessly. (The complete opposite of HDs.) Mine is a 2009 - you're about right about the price but it's worth every penny. I'd look for one 2008 onwards when the engine was changed, look for polished cylinder heads. It can take months to find one for sale tho, and I'm not selling mine!

+eriktheviking100 Far far to big heavy and fast for me at my age of 62. I had a good 2nd hand Pan European 1100cc 12 years ago and managed to crash it and write it off and I nearly killed myself. Too big too heavy. My wee 450 Honda Nighthawk does me fine and has so many bikers looking because it is a rarity. The Guzzi is a great looking bike and there aren't many about. If i was 30 years younger and had a drop more money available well.......... I would be really tempted but now? No. I know my limitations. lol

62? I'm 59 Tom, no problem. There is a nice one on ebay... www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MOTO-GUZZI-CALIFORNIA-VINTAGE-2008-MOT-9325-PLUS-MILES-/252316943330?hash=item3abf4303e2:g:WhcAAOSw-RRXB4Hd but enough of teasing now, I'm glad you have a bike you love and that turns a few heads too! And I'm happy you like mine too. Safe riding!

Hi Tom, I'm running 'single seat' mode at minute - and yes that was a centre stand. 18,500 miles on it now.

Hi Mark, Was that you I used to see parked near Gilnahirk Presbtyian church a few years ago? There are very few of these bikes around anywhere in Ulster. Nice machine.
