Probably a dirt simple question for this forum, but I'm a noob, and stumped.

Edit based on year: It's a 1100cc California.Saw this listed as a Moto Guzzi PCMC"....PCMC? What?
I thought that injectors didn't come to the California range until they were 1100 cc. The VIN number would confirm the year.
My first Guzzi was a 1995 California 1100 with carbs. I then went to work in the USA, and took my panniers and asked for a bike that would fit them! It was a 1996 with injectors, and I couldn't believe how light the throttle was.
Moved on a bit since then, but still like them.
In 1994 Guzzi introduced the 1100cc models, both carburators and fuel injection ones. The one in the photo seems a carburator one, if I'm not mistaken...
PCMC is supposed to mean, Piece of Crap Motorcycle. She's wearing a carburetor style fuel tank with a petcock, but has fuel injection. A cobbled together mess. Somebody really hacked at this poor girl and then treated her with no respect at all. What a shame.
Scott, on that era bike, they did have petcocks on both sides. They were on or off with no reserve. If you look at the parts breakout it shows two feeder lines going to a single then to the fuel pump.
