Description
Additional photos of this Magni Australia are available here for your perusal.
Arturo Magni started working with Moto Guzzi in 1985, and their first project was the “Parallelogrammo” swingarm created to counter the shaft jacking that was common with older driveshaft designs.
In 1990, Magni customized a Daytona road racer that was campaigned by Ted Stolarski, Moto Guzzi’s Australian importer for 3 decades. In the early 90s, Magni named their next production model the “Australia” as a tribute to Ted.
The Australia utilizes a 1,000cc Daytona RS motor with top notch components: Magni’s proprietary frame (obviously), WP shock, Forcelle Italia forks, Brembo brakes, Marchesini wheels, and more. At 8,400 rpm, the 4V motor put out 100 horsepower, enough to get the 440 pound (dry) Australia up to nearly 140 miles per hour.
