Anybody heard of IGuzzi?
« on: January 19, 2020, 04:02:23 PM »
Newbee here.
Passing the time until my new to me '14 California Touring (2.4K miles) makes it's way across the country from a dealer in SoCal.
Spotted this in an article on motorcycle daily...

IGUZZI.
iGuzzi is a new device that allows easy connection of your smartphone (BlueDash technology) with the California, transforming it into a true multimedia platform, capable of managing all the vehicle information as well as useful travel information.
The Bluetooth connection provided by iGuzzi, together with the GPS and Internet features, allows the Smartphone to become an integral part of the instrument panel. Customisable in graphics and content, iGuzzi offers the possibility of accessing numerous features such as: on board computer (averages, fuel economy, residual range, etc.), additional indications (temperature, RPM indicator, levels, operating values).


Looks like another still-born attempt to join the information age, but I thought someone here may have some knowledge of it's existence or failure to launch.

Welcome to the forum, am I right in assuming you are not new to riding?
What part of the country do you call home?
Yes we are aware of the device although maybe not by that name.
My new V7iii is wired for it.
Pictures of your new bike are mandatory lol

Hello Quattro, and welcome!
Is this your first Guzzi?
Are you born in 1989? If so, - no, I'll leave that to others.  :grin:
AS Kiwi Roy, we'll need photos!   :thumb:

Thanks Kiwi_Roy and pebra.

Followed the protocol and created a post in the introductions thread.
Of course, I will post pic's when the bike arrives. Fell in love with the white paint scheme when it was released several years back, and added it to the bucket list.
Actually having it shipped to my BMW dealer a few miles away in central jersey...save over $300 by not having it delivered here to NYC.

The gadget force in me is very strong. Any insight into what this device is, and where it might be purchased, would be appreciated. Google is my friend, but didn't cooperate in giving me any results.
