The Daytona 1000 IE is a sports motorcycle produced by Moto Guzzi between 1992 and 1999. Initially presented at the 1989 Milan Show in a carburettor version as a replica of a racing bike that competed in races for bikes derived from the series, the Daytona 1000 IE was marketed from 1992 .

In the motorcycle world, the number 1000 would usually indicate the engine capacity, the acronym ‘IE’, on the other hand, indicates the use of electronic injection as a fuel system, a very rare thing for the period. The Moto Guzzi Daytona was born from the need to commercially exploit the racing successes obtained in the United States by the local trainer John Wittner, a former dentist who later became known to enthusiasts as Dr. John, who revived the glories of the Italian manufacturer, which withdrew from racing after 50 years.

An excellent example of the fabled and now rare Daytona 1000 IE in present ownership since 2010 and just two former keepers. Now displaying c.18,789km on the odometer, this impressive machine is said to have always been kept in a heated garage. 'CFS' has had little use in recent years and though described as in good running order, the vendor recommends a service and check over prior to use and the gaining of an MOT. The paperwork file includes the owner's handbook, service book and an original sales brochure, together with various invoices and a spare key.
