2016 Moto Guzzi Stelvio NTX 1200cc (new!!!) The front fairing, windscreen and the half-fairing with integrated turn signals are all brand new elements that together, give the front-end of the Stelvio a cutting-edge look. The design is original, but stays in line with the soul of the Stelvio and is more functional and versatile. More efficient aerodynamic protection, thanks to the new top fairing and practically twice fold range capacity thanks to the outstanding new fuel tank with a 32 liter capacity. Where you're going, you don't need roads. The heart that beats inside this stout bike is the renowned 90° transverse V-twin "Four valve" engine, the highest performer among all the families of engines manufactured at Mandello del Lario. This engine has now reached exclusive levels as far as its technical/performance development is concerned. The NTX features more protection for the motor and the rider alike. Aluminum crash bars protect the oil sump, engine, and cylinder heads. While hand-guards and the extra large windshield and additional wind deflectors offer more protection and comfort for the rider. A bike dedicated to long haul travellers naturally needs luggage space, the Stelvio does not disappoint with spacious aluminium panniers and additional halogen lights. The Stelvio 1200 NTX tackles a twisty mountain pass or a gravel strewn fire road with equal aplomb. The secret is the new upper twin spar frame, made of high-strength steel, with 2.5mm thick directional tubes, where the engine is anchored through six connecting points providing higher rigidity, two more than in typical frames. Chassis geometries have been designed to facilitate handling, a headstock with a 27° of rake and 125mm trail, improved by a 60.4 inch wheelbase guarantees impeccable handling. The fully adjustable 45mm USD Marzocchi fork with 170mm of travel ensures an instant, smooth response. At the rear, a rebound and preload adjustable Sachs monoshock supports 155mm of travel. The refinement of the suspension guarantees a neutral setting at all times. When accelerating out of a corner, asking the "Quatrovalvole" engine for it's 105 horsepower, or when braking, mighty deceleration generated by the three-disc Brembo braking system (supported by the adjustable Continental ABS). The Stelvio NTX sports 320mm double disc front brakes, while retaining a 282mm brake disc at the rear. The wheels boast a cutting-edge set of light alloy rims with a 150/70-17 rear tire. Tubeless spoked wheels (patented Alpina STS system) come standard on the NTX.
