Positioned in Moto Guzzi's super motard motorcycle lineup, the 2013 Moto Guzzi Stelvio 1200 8V utilizes a 1151 cc (70.2 cu in) oil & air-cooled v2, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 105 HP (76.6 kW) at 7,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 113 Nm (83.3 lb-ft) at 5,800 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 91.2 HP per liter and a 1,700 rpm working window between peak torque (5,800 rpm) and peak power (7,500 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
On the scales, the Stelvio 1200 8V measures 272 kg (600 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.39 HP/kg (2.59 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 820 mm (32.3 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,535 mm (60.4 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 32-liter (8.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
