California Vintage photos in video
I sometimes mention the rides that I take on my California Vintage with my oldest son. He’s in 4th grade and has a real passion for computers.
A funny thing happened when he met “GuzziJim” when Jim came up from Florida to our neighborhood in NC to visit his aunt just 2 houses away from us (it really is a small world). Boy was Jim surprised when my son noticed his hat and quickly asked him (with correct pronunciation), “Do you have a Moto Guzzi too?”
It turns out Jim and I have the same motorcycle, except his is a year newer. After noticing my low mileage, he pointed out that the real difference is that he rides his (he has more than twice the miles that mine has). Funny and true.
Well, for my son’s first computer-related paid job, I asked him to make a slide show video using some pictures of my California Vintage so that we could post it on this site and on youtube for fun.
I think he did a really great job! We both hope you enjoy:

Looking back at the Guzzi 850 Eldorado
The Moto Guzzi California 850 Eldorado was introduced to America at a time when Harley-Davidson quality and performance was just about at an all-time low. The relative success of the Eldorado was in part due to the quality and workmanship of the motorcycle, and the heavy-duty durability it had. The durability was proven by several law enforcement agencies use in the US back in the early to mid 1970’s.

Installing 35W bulbs in fogs on Cal Vintage
Installing 35W fog light bulbs is a simple way to reduce battery drain on a Moto Guzzi California Vintage. I explain and show photos how I replaced the factory 55 Watt H3 bulbs with 35 Watt H3 bulbs on my 2007 California Vintage. I have no idea why I waited so long to do this.
