This manual provides the main information to carry out regular maintenance operations on your vehicle.
This manual is intended to Moto Guzzi Dealers and their qualified mechanics; several concepts have
been deliberately omitted as they are considered unnecessary. As it is not possible to include complete
mechanical notions in this manual, users should have basic mechanical knowledge or minimum
knowledge about the procedures involved when repairing vehicle. Without this knowledge, repairing or
checking the vehicle may be inefficient or even dangerous. As the vehicle repair and check procedures
are not described in detail, be extremely cautious so as not to damage components or injure individuals.
In order to optimise customer satisfaction when using our vehicles, Piaggio & C. S.p.a. commits itself
to continually improve its products and the relative documentation. The main technical modifications and
changes in repair procedures are communicated to all Moto Guzzi Sales Outlets and its International
Subsidiaries. These changes will be introduced in the subsequent editions of the manual. In case of
need or further queries on repair and check procedures, consult Moto Guzzi CUSTOMER
DEPARTMENT, which will be prepared to provide any information on the subject and any further
communications on updates and technical changes related to the vehicle.
