Moto Guzzi Centauro description

This bike is one of only roughly 3,600 made over a period of 1997-1999.  Only so many were imported into the U.S. making this a very unique cycle. Has awesome classic design lines.

She runs great and has been well maintained. I am the second owner. The timing belt was replaced at the 20,000 mile interval and a new clutch was installed around the same time. Rear tire has maybe 2,000 mi on her.  No dings and no noticeable scratches on the paint. Just a great bike that has always been garaged.

Bike comes stock with dual Brembo disc brakes up front and a single Brembo disc brake in the rear. Single shock suspension and shaft driven. Oil cooler came stock and always serviced with Mobil 1 synthetic.

I also have some spare parts along with shop manual and the original chrome mirrors which were removed and replace with lower profile model.
