Moto Guzzi Stelvio 1200
The Moto Guzzi Stelvio 1200 has a top speed of 210 km/h, produces 105 hp and weighs 259 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.5/10.
Le Moto Guzzi Stelvio 1200 a été introduit en 2008 comme l'entrée de Guzzi dans le segment des voyages d'aventure, du nom du célèbre col du Stelvio dans les Alpes italiennes. Il a été construit autour du moteur bicylindre en V à 90 degrés éprouvé de 1151 cm3 et était équipé d'un entraînement par arbre, caractéristique des vélos de tourisme Moto Guzzi, ce qui le rend parfaitement adapté aux voyages sur de longues distances. La variante NTX est arrivée vers 2011 avec une électronique et un style modernisés, et le modèle est resté en production jusqu'en 2017 environ, célèbre pour son ingénierie italienne caractéristique et ses capacités tout-terrain.

Ce que les acheteurs doivent savoir
Transverse V-Twin Power
The 1151cc 90-degree V-twin engine is mounted longitudinally, giving the Stelvio a unique low center of gravity and distinctive shaft-drive setup that eliminates chain maintenance entirely.
Watch the Throttle Bodies
Early models (2008-2011) are known for throttle body synchronization issues causing rough idle and stuttering — always verify this has been properly serviced or updated before buying.
Stable Resale Value
The Stelvio holds its value reasonably well due to its cult following and limited production numbers, but its niche appeal means the buyer pool is smaller, so pricing must be competitive to sell quickly.
Générations et spécifications par année
Présentation du bicylindre en V de 1151 cm3, d'un châssis tubulaire en acier, de fourches de 50 mm, d'un ABS en option, axé sur l'aventure.
"Un aventurier plein d'âme et imparfait qui récompense les conducteurs patients."
Le bicylindre en V transversal de 1151 cm3 sort des virages avec ce bruit caractéristique de Guzzi : il offre du couple, du caractère et un véritable plaisir une fois que vous apprenez à manier la transmission par arbre lors des transitions d'accélérateur. Avec 259 kg sur sol mouillé, c'est une tâche ardue sur les sentiers techniques, et l'ABS en option semblait agricole par rapport aux normes de 2008, mais deux fois sur les cols alpins, il est calme, tranquille et extrêmement confortable pendant les longues journées. Les fourches de 50 mm s'adaptent parfaitement au bitume européen, même si elles semblent vagues lorsque la route se transforme en gravier meuble. Il s'agit essentiellement d'un road touring vêtu de vêtements d'aventure. J'ai parcouru 18 000 km en deux saisons et j'ai adoré cet itinéraire malgré ses bizarreries, mais la chaleur qui se dégage de ces cylindres exposés pendant les trajets urbains estivaux est tout à fait brutale.

Évaluation d'un acheteur d'occasion
"Flawed, characterful, and deeply rewarding for the right rider."
$6,500-$11,000 usedThe Stelvio 1200 is one of those bikes that rewards patience and forgiveness in equal measure. That big 90-degree V-twin pulls hard from low revs and sounds genuinely spectacular, but it's the character that gets you — this thing vibrates, transmits, and communicates in ways modern adventure bikes simply don't. Torque is abundant, handling is surprisingly competent for a tall bike, and the shaft drive means zero chain maintenance headaches on long tours. Used examples need careful scrutiny though. Check the bevel drive housing for leaks, inspect the throttle bodies for flat spots, and verify the alternator belt has been serviced — it's a known weak point that gets ignored. Earlier models had mediocre suspension that benefits hugely from aftermarket upgrades. Electronics are basic by today's standards, fuel economy is modest, and the gearbox needs deliberate, firm shifts or it'll clunk angrily at you. Budget for a full service immediately after purchase.
