Title: Custom (sport) California's
Post by: rutgery on October 03, 2020, 06:16:41 AM
As many of you know the Guzzi california series are the same as any other sport Guzzi underneath. Next to this bikes like the cali 3, 1100 and even the T3 Cali to some extend are relatively cheap and abundant, making them common as platforms to build a Guzzi special out of. I was wondering if there are many sportified cali's around on this forum so I thought I'd start this topic.  If you have one, I'd love to see it!
Don't forget the  :gotpics:!

I'll start off with the v7 sport conversion of what once was a cali 3 (950cc)
It started as this:

And this is how she's looking now:

This is my 2003 special sport Aluminium.  I bought the bike intentionally to modify.  Under every Tonti frame bike body work is a race bike.

That was my goal when I was looking for a bike.. You just get so much for your money with the California models. I sended up finding a REAL clean low miles cal metal though....  so that went by the wayside.. too clean to change.
