Những điều người mua nên biết
Massive V-Twin Engine
The 1380cc 90-degree V-twin is one of the largest displacement engines in a production cruiser, delivering a unique low-frequency torque character unlike any Japanese or American rival. This transversely-mounted engine also acts as a stressed frame member, a signature Moto Guzzi engineering trait.
Watch the Bevel Gears
The shaft drive's bevel gear box requires regular oil changes (often neglected by owners) and can develop play or whine if serviced improperly. Always inspect service records and listen for driveline lash before buying used.
Strong Resale Retention
The California 1400 holds its value well compared to mainstream cruisers due to its limited production numbers and strong brand loyalty among Guzzi enthusiasts. Low-mileage examples in good condition rarely depreciate aggressively on the used market.

Đánh giá người mua đã qua sử dụng
"Italian character and torque few cruisers can match, if supported properly."
$9,000-$14,000 usedThe California 1400 is one of those bikes that either grabs you immediately or leaves you cold — there's no middle ground. That 1380cc V-twin is genuinely magnificent, producing a chest-thumping torque delivery that makes highway cruising feel effortless and theatrical. The transverse-mounted engine with its exposed cylinders catches eyes everywhere you park. Build quality is excellent when properly maintained, but that's the catch with used examples. Check service history religiously. The shaft drive is bulletproof but the bevel gear needs proper lubrication intervals respected. Early models had some throttle-by-wire glitches that dealers typically sorted under warranty — verify this was done. Suspension is competent but firm; taller riders actually fare better here. The Touring variant adds proper luggage and a more relaxed riding position worth seeking out. This isn't a budget buy even used. Parts aren't cheap, dealer networks are thin outside major cities, and specialist mechanics matter. But if you want something genuinely different from the Japanese and American mainstream, something with real character and Italian soul, the California 1400 delivers it in spades.
