The Moto Guzzi Technical Training Videos are official, very high quality, technical videos covering a wide variety of topics. The videos were created by Moto Guzzi and are presented in several languages: English, French, German, Italian, and Spanish. The technical training is for the late model Moto Guzzi Breva 750 IE and Moto Guzzi V11 engine and drive train (including California models). However, much of the technical information is directly applicable to all Moto Guzzi big twins produced since 1967. The videos are very well produced and provide both the seasoned mechanic and the novice with good, clear instructions about how to perform work on a Moto Guzzi.
There are two types of files: Apple QuickTime videos and Adobe PDF documents. Both are viewable on both the PC and the Macintosh.
