Moto Guzzi took their well-known 1,064cc twin and threw it in an ADV package to compete against BMW’s GS bikes. The result was as you’d expect – too heavy and under-suspended for serious off-road work, but very capable as a sport-tourer that could also play on fire roads or light trails. This example is well-modified for touring and it’s had the common Quota issues addressed, so it’s perfect for someone who appreciates the qualities of an ADV bike but wants something relatively unique.
For more on the Quota, check out this review on Motorcyclist where Ed Milich calls it “one of Moto Guzzi’s famous engineering answers to questions no one asked.”
This example has 18,520 miles on the odometer and it’s offered with an Ohio title. It’s equipped with the OEM saddlebags and per the seller it “starts up and runs/drives fine.” Find this Quota for sale in Bowling Green, Ohio for $4,000 here on Facebook Marketplace.
