1999 Cagiva 904cc Gran Canyon
Registration no. T274 AJT
Frame no. GM300AAWV000916
Engine no. ZDM906LE1002445

Introduced in 1998, the Cagiva Gran Canyon was intended to cash in on the expanding interest in dual-purpose or 'adventure' motorcycles, a market sector dominated then, as new, by BMW's large-capacity flat twins. Cagiva founders the Castiglione brothers owned Ducati at the time, and the engine chosen for the Gran Canyon was Ducati's air-cooled 904cc desmodromic v-twin, as found in the 900SS sports roadster. There was 'only' some 63bhp available at the rear wheel but that was more than enough to endow the Gran Canyon with respectable performance. "Cagiva's Gran Canyon is a great motorcycle to ride, with nimble handling, lazy, easy-to-love power and plenty of tuning potential" declared Motor Cycle News.
Owned by the current vendor since March 2012, this Gran Canyon currently displays a total of only 26,226 miles on the odometer. The machine is offered with a V5C Registration Certificate, SORN, and MoT to 24th October 2019.
