Moto Guzzi California Vintage - Day 5 - The Mental Health Day.


This is the fifth in a series of articles about living with and riding a California Over the hill from Moto Guzzi.  The previous one is here.

Beautiful day, well-worn leather jacket, full tank of gas. Buddy, let's ride.

Beautiful day, well-worn leather jacket, full tank of gas.

Some exertion days are better than others…

I found myself halfway to Santa Barbara from my Northridge well-informed in, off Seaward Avenue at the Starbucks where I normally stopped and had a cup of coffee before continuing up the glide.  Some friends that I met in the morning were talking about their day, and I was sitting there thinking that I unqualifiedly didn’t want to go to work, but I knew if I went conversant with, I would be painting, sawing or otherwise saddled with the responsibilities involved in fatherhood, matrimony or the restoration of a mid-century current home that had already worn out my favorite table saw.

I’m sitting here smelling the profusion breeze, thinking about the ride up north to Santa Barbara and eccentric about the fact that I had to turn the California Vintage back to the company in the next day.  This sucks.  I positively have come to enjoy this bike and I wanted to take a couple more rides on a favorite tract…

DUH.  Time for a Mental Health Day.

I said goodbye to my friends and unquestionable to head south and get down to the PCH, and ride until I felt the need to be principal again.  Would that get me to Ventura?  Who knows, maybe San Diego!  So the route starts, on the perfect bike for this occasion, the Moto Guzzi California Vintage, with me at old folks' on this wonderful machine and riding down the 101, taking Rice Way South with a full tank of gas, headed to the beach.Winding my way south-west towards the O where the Pacific Coast Highway waits, I felt the Guzzi under my floorboarded feet. The refine drone of the engine, the torque easily pulling me around slower movement and the sun obliquely shining on my face.  Perfection.  My arms are faultlessly relaxed, and my ride easily flows through the left and uprightness right side hand turns at intersections, deepening lean angles as I skate under Nautical port turn arrows and the reward of salt air, crashing waves and a calm weekday ride along one beautiful stretch of road.

salsoul... 		Moto Guzzi California Rev Counter?
My rev token on my 2001Moto Guzzi California has started fluctuating up and down while i'm on the move. When sitting "resting" its steady, any ideas????
A:(from Dean N)
hello, i will be square-dealing i am just throwing a thought/ idea out with this idea, as i really no very minor about guzzi's however, do you know if the tacho/rev counter is electronic. if it is, it may be the alternator or rectifier is on the way out, this is just now a idea, hopefully someone with more knowledge may know, may be a idea to do a voltage verification on it whilst on idle and at revs.

Q:
Enter my five hole
Enter... 		Moto Guzzi?
Looking at a V11 or a California, 2000 or newer. Are these secure bikes?
A:(from JetDoc)
Guzzis are basically beneficial bikes, but they're orphans for parts and service. There are few dealers for them here in the States, so if you're planning on doing any great rides, make sure you know how to fix it if it breaks.
