Moto Guzzi V 10 Centauro Sport (1997 – 2000)
The Moto Guzzi V 10 Centauro Sport is a unique blend of Italian flair and high-performance engineering. Its 992cc, air-cooled, eight-valve twin engine, fueled by Weber injection, produces a claimed 94 horsepower and 65 foot-pounds of torque.
The Centauro’s engine character is one of smooth, linear power delivery, a far cry from the peaky power output of some of its competitors. And while its weight, at 471 pounds, may be a drawback for some, the Centauro’s handling is surprisingly refined, thanks in part to its WP, Brembo, and Bitubo suspension and brake components.
But what truly sets the Centauro apart is its unapologetic, old-school charm. With its sweeping fuel tank, broad seat, and bulbous tail unit, this motorcycle is a true original, a testament to Moto Guzzi’s commitment to traditional engineering and design. And when you fire up the Centauro’s engine, you’ll experience the raw, visceral thrill of a real motorsickle, with a sound that’s as much a part of the riding experience as the wind in your hair and the sun on your face.

Moto Guzzi Quota 1100ES (2000 -)
The Moto Guzzi Quota 1100ES is a refreshingly honest trail bike, unapologetically simple and capable. Built on a legacy of longitudinal crankshafts and clangy gearboxes, this bike defies mainstream conventions. Its massive bars and long-legged stance may take some getting used to, but once you adapt, the riding experience becomes deceptively simple.
The Quota’s 115cc boost over its predecessor is courtesy of a 92mm x 80mm bore and stroke, with Marelli fuel injection still driving a modified California engine. Guzzi claims 69ps of power at 6400rpm and 8.7kgf-m of torque at 3800rpm, but it’s the latter that truly defines this bike’s character – it’s a torque machine that pulls effortlessly from 60km/h in top gear.
The Quota 1100ES is not a bike for the faint of heart, but for those willing to adapt, it offers a uniquely engaging ride experience.

Moto Guzzi California 1100 EV Jackel (1999)
The Moto Guzzi California 1100 EV Jackal is a cruiser-styled machine that embodies the spirit of laid-back riding. Powered by a traditional air-cooled transverse V-twin engine, this bike delivers a unique riding experience that’s all about relaxed progress.
As you settle into the saddle, you’ll notice the engine’s gentle power delivery, which produces its best performance down low in the rev range. The fuel-injection system provides a smooth breathing experience, but the power can feel a bit flat at low revs.
The Jackal’s handsome design features kicked-out front forks, a wire-spoked front wheel, and a single front brake disc, all adding to its stylish and curvaceous lines. With its deep mudguards and dash of chrome, this bike is a true head-turner.
Its performance may not be the most aggressive, but the California 1100 EV Jackal is a machine that rewards a more leisurely pace, inviting you to take in the scenery and enjoy the ride.

Moto Guzzi V10 Centauro (1996 – 97)
The Moto Guzzi V10 Centauro is a behemoth of a motorcycle, boasting a 992cc transverse V-twin engine that’s a far cry from its retro-inspired lines. This standard-style bike has a wicked hooligan streak, with a tank that slopes gently from the bars to the seat, and a wide, relatively flat seat that sets the rider firmly on the bike.
The Centauro’s attention to detail is impressive, with two-tone bodywork that falls beautifully from steering head to license plate bracket, and mirrors that match the contours of the bodywork. The WP upside-down forks and four-piston Brembo brakes anchor the front end, while the upswept stainless steel exhaust system adds to the bike’s aggressive stance.
But it’s the engine that’s the true star of the show, with its four-valve, fuel-injected design and longitudinal mounting making it a stressed member of the frame. The result is a bike that’s both retro and modern, with a character that’s all its own. The V10 Centauro is a truly unique machine that’s sure to leave a lasting impression on any rider who’s lucky enough to get behind the handlebars.
