At the heart of the 2004 Moto Guzzi V11 Le Mans sport touring motorcycle, Moto Guzzi pairs a 1064 cc (64.9 cu in) air-cooled v2, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 89.9 HP (65.6 kW) at 8,200 rpm while maximum torque reaches 94 Nm (69.3 lb-ft) at 5,400 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and shaft drive (cardan) final drive. With a specific output of 84.5 HP per liter and a 2,800 rpm working window between peak torque (5,400 rpm) and peak power (8,200 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.

Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 800 mm (31.5 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,490 mm (58.7 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure.
