First Ride | Introduction to the Moto Guzzi Stelvio

First Ride | Introduction to the Moto Guzzi Stelvio

I finally got the chance to get properly up close and personal with the all-new Moto Guzzi Stelvio — and not just parked up in a showroom either. In this video, I take a detailed look at Moto Guzzi’s big adventure machine, checking out the design, features, tech, comfort, and all the little details that make this bike stand out from the usual ADV crowd. Then it was time to throw a leg over it and see what it’s actually like out on the road. Does the Stelvio have what it takes to shake up the adventure bike segment? And can Moto Guzzi bring a bit of Italian soul to a class often dominated by cold spec sheets and practicality? There was only one way to find out. Watch now for my first ride impressions, close-up walkaround, and honest thoughts on the new Stelvio.
