With 84 hairpin corners at an altitude over 9,000 feet, the Stelvio Pass in the Italian Alps is known as the “greatest driving road” in the world and it’s also the testing ground for the Moto Guzzi Stelvio 1200 NTX ABS. The Stelvio 1200 NTX ABS brings together Moto Guzzi character with state-of-the-art performance, design and an 8.5 gallon gas tank perfect for long distance riding . It comes standard with ABS, Automatic Traction Control, aluminum side bags, hand guards, and adjustable wind screen, saddle height, handlebar, clutch levers and foot pegs. The NTX is the more 'adventurous' version of the Stelvio, and now has all the technical features of the base version, plus some exceptional new fixtures, i.e. the sturdy 'armour' that embraces it and comprises the oil sump guard, engine guard, cylinder guard, full cover hand-guards and extra large windshield with additional wind deflectors to protect the rider and his bike against the hidden dangers throughout his trip. The heart that beats inside this touring bike is the renowned V-shaped 90° transverse twin-cylinder 'Four valve' engine, the highest performer among all the families of engines manufactured at Mandello del Lario, which has now reached exclusive levels as far as its technical/performance development is concerned. This latest version can boast the careful attention paid to achieve a more silent and smooth running of the engine, whilst tweaking the electronic control, timing system and cooling system. The brand new integrated ignition and injection ECU now exploits the signals sent by the two lambda probes to guarantee adequate feeding throughout the entire combustion cycle, improving response to the throttle control, low-to-mid-range power delivery further to consumptions and emissions. The ECU also includes the ATC system to prevent sliding: this system controls ignition advance and injection to cut torque delivery whenever a sudden loss of grip is detected so as to help the rider to remain in control under extreme, unexpected conditions. The system can be deactivated, just like ABS. The engine now boasts a maximum torque of over 113 Nm delivered at a mere 5,800 rpm and easily reaches a peak in output of over 105 HP; it practically reaches an automobile-level speed of 7,250 rpm. A bike dedicated to long haul travellers naturally needs luggage space, hence the spacious aluminium panniers and additional halogen lights. Even more luxury options are available on the accessory catalogue including a GPS navigator installation kit, heated hand-grips, CA.RC protection (Compact Reactive Cardan Shaft Drive), aluminium top box for the NTX or side wind deflectors, extra large windshield, dedicated body coloured plastic polymer panniers and top box kit for the 1200 8V version. The new Stelvios are available in Guzzi Black, Moon White and Sienna colour schemes, while the NTX will flaunt a brand new colour concept on a black satin finish base (Lava Black). 2012 Moto Guzzi Stelvio 1200 NTX - North American Specifications/Technical Details USA MSRP Price: $15,990.00 USD Canadian MSRP Price: $$16,190 CDN ENGINE Type 90° V-twin engine, 4-stroke Cooling Air and oil and, independent cooling pumps Engine capacity 1,151 cc Bore and stroke 95 x 81.2 mm Compression ratio 11:01 Maximum power 105HP (77 kW) at 7,250 rpm Maximum torque 83.3 Ft.

Moto Guzzi Stelvio 1200 Ntx Forum
*( 19 % VAT incl. excl. Shipping costs )
Parent company Piaggio didn't make a bit deal out of it, but it totally re-designed the Stelvio in 2009 with a new motor and new frame. Is the Moto Guzzi Stelvio 1200 NTX now a worthy alternative to the class-defining GS?
MORE GUZZI GOODNESS
What’s New:
Take the old Stelvio and change the torque curve from 80lb/ft peaking at 6,400rpm to 83lb/ft at 5,800rpm, add a narrower, 4.25×17″ rear rim (capable of accepting enduro rubber), an aluminum sump guard, brush guards, aluminum luggage, engine bars and auxiliary lights and you have the NTX. Add all that to the 1,151cc air-cooled 90° twin making 105bhp, the 8.5-gallon tank capacity and a 598lbs kerb weight.
The 150-section rear, spec’d to enable the fitment of knobbies, but here wearing road-biased Pirelli Scorpions, rolls over on its side in a manner alien to most modern bikes and their too-wide rubber. 1st gear is short enough and the torque strong enough low down — 85lb/ft at just 5,800rpm — that you’re off the clutch and on the power as soon as you’re past that 20mph apex. That new motor really takes off between 6 and 8,000rpm though. Cross that 6,000rpm barrier and the 1,151cc air/oil-cooled twin adopts a much more menacing, deeper exhaust note, delivering 105bhp.
Moto Guzzi Stelvio Maintenance
The NTX decreases rear wheel width to 4.25-inches to make selection of dirt rubber easier and receives a host of additional accessories as standard. Switchable antilock brakes, traction control, panniers, crash bars, spotlights, wire wheels, an extra-large windshield and additional wind deflectors on the side, plus bark busters. All that boosts the distance capability and comfort of the bike while making it seriously rugged. You get the feeling you could throw it down in one of the hairpins, pick it up, and ride it a couple hundred miles back to Mandello with only an apology to show for your trouble. In matte black — the only color available on the NTX — the whole thing feels ready for the Zombie Apocalypse. It just needs “Medusa” decals on the panniers.
What’s Good:
This Moto Guzzi is invariably compared to that BMW. You know the one. And not without reason, not only are the specs extremely similar — air-cooled longitudinal twins (the BMW is now partially water cooled), single-sided shaft drive swingarms, single-plate clutches — but the Italian bike was created specifically to benefit and conquest sales from the German. Some things about the GS are better — it’s nearly 100lbs lighter than the NTX to start, although it admittedly comes with fewer options — but there’s two big differences that right here, heading down a wet alpine pass, really make the Guzzi shine:
Conventional forks and traction control. On the Stevio, applying the front brakes compresses the front suspension, steepening its angle and making steering both faster and more confidence inspiring as weight transitions to the front wheel and the contact patch grows. Say what you will about the benefits of BMW’s dive-free Telelever, but when you want front end feel, there’s nothing better than a traditional set of telescopic forks.
What’s Bad:
Extremely high weight and limited ground clearance mean you really don’t want to take it off-road.
The Verdict:
Moto Guzzi Stelvio For Sale
A characterful, fun, practical Italian alternative to the reigning BMW R1200GS. If you want an ADV bikes a a versatile tourer, look no further. If you actually plan to head more off-road than a fire road, you're going to want something lighter, like the KTM or one of the mid-capacity ADV bikes like a Suzuki V-Strom 650.
