Available next month from Moto Guzzi will be the Nevada Classic 750 I.E. pictured. It features fuel injection and shaft drive (making all of Moto Guzzi’s models now fuel injected). The cruiser-style Nevada Classic 750 I.E. is very light at 184 kilos (approximately 405 pounds) and features a complete redesign from the old carbureted model (87% of the components are either new or redesigned). Here is a reprint of Moto Guzzi’s press materials for this new model.
- With the arrival of the new NEVADA CLASSIC 750 I.E., Moto Guzzi becomes one of the few motorcycle manufacturers in the world to boast entire range equipped with electronic fuel injection and catalysed exhausts with Lambda oxygen sensor emission control.
- Every model in Moto Guzzi’s 2004 range fully complies with Euro 2 standards.
- The Nevada Classic 750 I.E. has been re-designed along the same lines as the Breva V 750 i.e.:
- exceptional agility without compromising on road holding;
- easy riding thanks to an ultra-low seat height (only 760 mm);
- light weight (only 184 kg dry weight);
- maximum comfort even for the passenger thanks to the new seat design.
- Briefly, the easy-to-ride Nevada Classic 750 I.E. is perfect around town as well as for short and medium distance touring. It is unbeatable not only for experienced but also for novice and lady riders.
- While the Nevada Classic 750 i.e. remains totally faithful to its Moto Guzzi origins in terms of overall design, the 2004 model is completely renewed. Compared to the old carburettor model, 87% of components have been redesigned or renewed (383 components out of a total of 441). Main focus on the totally new back part of the Nevada, completely re-designed, on the new seat, on the new wheels and the new tank.
- The Nevada Classic 750 I.E. is also the only “entry level” custom with shaft drive and electronic injection.
- The Nevada Classic 750 I.E. becomes available in May 2004. US Distribution and pricing has not yet been set.
