Moto Guzzi Quota 1000 and Quota 1100 ES models
Updated:
| Spark plug type & gap | NGK BPR6ES; 0.7 mm (0.028 inch) |
|---|---|
| Engine oil |
3 liters (3.170 quarts) of 20W-50 motor oil. Note: Many people in countries that sell oil in quart containers simply use 3 quarts of oil. The lack of a little extra oil makes no appreciable difference in performance or longevity. |

| Rear drive box oil |

| Maintenance intervals | Everyone has their own opinion based on their personal experience and riding characteristics. I follow the Moto Guzzi guidelines and change the engine, transmission, and drive box oil every 6,000 miles. I also change the spark plugs and check and set the valves every 6,000 miles. I change the fork oil and brake fluid yearly. |
