AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

I have owned this motorcycle for almost 30 years and am its second owner. I imported it myself from Italy in 1997 and bought it from Spadoni Stefania.

After importing it, I had it tested on the dyno at Ten Kate Motoren, where it produced 100 hp at the rear wheel. The Termignoni exhausts were already fitted at the time.

After riding it with great pleasure for some time, a cylinder head cracked. The replacement head had much more material around the valve seat, so it was a manufacturing defect. On inspection, it turned out that the other head had already been replaced. According to Jens Hofmann of Dynotec in Germany, it could also be because the original valves are not perfectly round.

I then took the motorcycle to Jens Hofmann, who made various internal modifications, including fitting a different oil pump and new valves, and adjusting the flow of the cylinder heads. He also said a V-shaped oil pan with an external oil filter was essential. Everything was tuned on his dyno. Cost: €4,336.

Original Moto Guzzi C-Kit. Written confirmation from Jens Hofmann (Dynotec) is available stating that this Daytona is equipped with an original Moto Guzzi C-Kit. The additional price quoted at the time was approximately €9,500.

The motorcycle delivers impressive performance and has a very powerful character, true to the Daytona concept. With five gears and smooth power delivery, it is a pleasure to ride.

I also had the suspension modified by SO Suspension (André Stamsnijder), from the superbike world. This lowered the center of gravity by around 3 cm and gives the bike superb handling, also thanks to the steering damper they fitted.

Over the years, I have often taken it on holiday to the Alps, and once to the TT races on the Isle of Man. For this, I made a luggage rack that is easy to install.

The motorcycle has minor signs of use consistent with its age and use. The original paint is still present. Details can be seen during an inspection.

The original parts can be seen in the photos. An extensive set of original parts is included with the motorcycle:

Original Lafranconi exhaust
Original oil pan
Original front and rear suspension
Additional fairing panel
Additional seat section
Original handbook
Various documentation
The motorcycle spent some time in a heated garage, as I stopped riding for a while after having children. This has resulted in a lovely low mileage of 43,000 km.

The motorcycle had a major service in June 2026: the injectors were ultrasonically cleaned, all fuel hoses were replaced with ethanol-resistant ones, the Viton O-rings were replaced, the timing belt was replaced, and the valves were adjusted. All oil and filters were replaced with high-quality products. A new fuel filter was fitted, with another one included as a spare; the brake fluid was also replaced.

Sadly, I am selling the motorcycle because I am moving abroad. I hope it will go to an enthusiast who will cherish it as much as I have.

However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road.

Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration.
