Moto Guzzi Stelvio 2024

Moto Guzzi Stelvio 2024

Italian character meets modern touring suitability; the Moto Guzzi Stelvio is a successful blend of traditional Guzzi charm and modern technology. Its superior engine, extensive features and outstanding comfort make it a great companion for relaxed long-distance rides. Although it weighs a fair amount and requires a surcharge for some features, it remains an attractive option for touring riders who prioritise character and style.

Characterful, smooth V2 engine with linear power delivery

Modern electronics including connectivity and LED Cornering lights

Comfortable, long-distance ergonomics, ideal for taller riders

Electronically adjustable windscreen - flexible for different speeds

Great handling despite the higher weight

High weight noticeable in tight hairpins and when manoeuvring

rear brake with long idle travel, particularly noticeable in tight bends

despite all-road ambitions, limited off-road capability due to suspension and ground clearance

BMW R 1200 GS 2018

BMW R 1200 GS 2018

For over 35 years, BMW has continued to expand the boxer range and is consistently working on the evolution of the GS. In addition to the EURO4 update of the engine with new catalytic converter and mapping, there are now even more features such as the Dynamic ESA Next Generation with automatic riding position compensation, which further improves stability and comfort for the rider. With its subtle colour scheme, the Exclusive version is intended for friends of a neat and subdued appearance and, unlike the flashier Rallye variant, is designed more for the road. Many features are at extra cost, but GS customers usually don't care - 90 percent are ordered with full equipment.
