The House of Mandello del Lario has designed the 1983 MY Moto Guzzi 850 T 3 California to be in direct competition with the Harley Davidson Electra Glide on the American market. It comes standard with touring-enhancing features such as a large windscreen, a two-up seat, hard, lockable saddlebags and a large, 24 liter fuel tank. In the tech/engine department, it sports an air-cooled, four-stroke, 844cc, V-twin powerhouse mated to a five-speed manual transmission, and can produce 68 horsepower.
