RIDE REVIEW I 2024 MOTO GUZZI STELVIO
P140
puts it right around the Ducati Multistrada V2 and Triumph
Tiger 900 range. Said power is pushing a claimed wet
weight of 542 pounds via the only shaft drive in this class
category (the BMW R 1300 GS is the next category above).
Performance from the V-twin is one of the pleasantly
surprising aspects of the Stelvio's character. It has such
a broad spread of power but is just as happy ripping up
through the rev ranges and holding gears—it's very un-
Guzzi in how much it likes to rev and just how much go it
has when the revs reach above 8000 rpm.
(Top left) The Moto
Guzzi engineers have
crafted a very nice
seat for a standard
piece. It doesn't get
overly hard after
four hours on board.
(Above) The five-
inch dash does the
job well enough but
isn't overly flashy
like on a Ducati.
(Top right) The
single-sided spoked
wheels look rather
classy. (Above) The
transverse V-twin is a
Moto Guzzi trademark.
(Right) This is the
most un-Moto Guzzi
Moto Guzzi ever.
The Stelvio is a
genuine surprise.
