Those of you who’ve been able to, or are hoping to ride a motorcycle in Italy will most likely be familiar with the Stelvio Pass. One of the most popular mountain passes in Italy, this road is known for its incredible turns and undulations, making it one of the best driving and riding roads in the world. As such, it’s not surprising that Moto Guzzi had a bike named after this specific road.
The Moto Guzzi Stelvio was an adventure-touring bike that was in production from 2007 to 2016. Stacking up to the likes of the R 1200 GS and KTM 1190 Adventure, the Stelvio proved itself a capable big-bore ADV machine, albeit one that veered towards the more unique side of the spectrum. Indeed, it was perhaps this uniqueness that ultimately resulted in its demise, as the Stelvio’s lackluster sales figures was cited as one of the reasons why Guzzi pulled the plug on the bike in 2016 in time for the Euro 4 transition.
