MOTO GUZZIStelvio 1200 4V 2008 - 2009

　　The Moto Guzzi Stelvio 1200 was a dual-purpose motorcycle introduced in November 2007 at the Milan Motorcycle Show as a 2008 model year. The bike replaced the Moto Guzzi Quota and was replaced by the Moto Guzzi V100 Mandello.

　　In addition, the motorcycle was named after the alpine Stelvio Pass, a mountain pass in Northern Italy at the border with Switzerland at an elevation of 2,757 m (9,045 ft). In 2009, the bike received engine tuning, while in 2012, it featured a restyled fairing, an updated dashboard, and a larger fuel tank.

　　Visually, the bike packed standard features, such as a dual round headlight system, a medium-sized windscreen, a wide handlebar, a two-piece dual seat with passenger grab rails, a small luggage rack, a single-sided swingarm, a two-into-one exhaust system, and wire-spoke wheels with black-finished rims.

　　In addition, the bike was available with various touring-oriented accessories, such as the color-matched side-mounted hard panniers that enhanced its storage space.

　　Suspension-wise, the motorcycle packed a 50 mm inverted fully adjustable telescopic fork on the front and an adjustable shock absorber coupled to a single-sided swingarm on the rear, providing excellent suspension performance and great handling.

　　As for the power figures, the 2008 Moto Guzzi Stelvio 1200 4V had its soul brought to life by a 1,151cc four-stroke air-cooled V-twin engine that produced an output power of 105 hp at 7,500 rpm and 108 Nm (80 lb-ft) torque at 6,400 rpm.
