    Hi all.
    Just posting on the off chance that one of our UK folks has a Spare Guzzi California to sell.
    I've had a few of these and the urge for another is upon me.
    I'm looking for the 1100 not the 1400 one.
    Thanks .

    Also being attracted by those 1100 California, for cool cruising/travelling with madame.
    Never passed the step to buy one so far, but browse every week on ads...
    Good luck for your search.

    Thanks
    Ive had three so far.
    Great but be prepared to get the spanners out.
    I'm only wanting one as my two Triumphs are far too reliable.

    :grinning:
    That's exactly the reason why I don't have one yet.
    Nice ones with 70 000 km can be found in the 3500 euros range.

    I've just missed one in UK for £3500...20000 miles.
    You need to avoid 2003 year models though.... disastrous hydraulic tappets which failed and filled the oil pump with metal.
    Otherwise their mechanically very tough. Electrics can be temperamental.
