At the heart of the 2012 Moto Guzzi Stelvio 1200 ABS enduro - offroad motorcycle, Moto Guzzi utilizes a 1151 cc (70.2 cu in) oil & air-cooled v2, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 110 HP (80.3 kW) at 7,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 108 Nm (79.7 lb-ft) at 6,400 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and shaft drive (cardan) final drive. With a specific output of 95.6 HP per liter and a 1,100 rpm working window between peak torque (6,400 rpm) and peak power (7,500 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the Stelvio 1200 ABS measures 251 kg (553 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.44 HP/kg (2.28 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 840 mm (33.1 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 18-liter (4.8 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
