California 3 variations

[ELIMINATOR]

Spoked or cast wheels.
Carbs or injected.
30mm or 36mm carbs.
Distributor, or 2 brands of cdi, Digiplex or Magneti Marreli, maybe Motoplat? Mine is Digiplex.
Think I read that some have bigger valves.
Weight varies according to source, 238 to 250kg.
So many variations, for what I suspect is a bike not made in large numbers.
BHP usually shown as 65, with 30mm carbs.
Mine has 36mm, anyone know what the BHP difference is from using the 30mm?

Probably exactly the same!

I know I have mentoned this before, but at a Cagiva Elefant treffen in Aachen a few years ago we had a line of 750 Lucky Explorers from pretty much the same year.

Different electronics, brakes, loads of little bits so almost no 2 bikes were quite the same. They all seemed to work fine though... very Italian!
