Just got it firing!
Hi, new forum member here.
I am also a relatively new Moto Guzzi owner having purchased my V11 Tenni late last year. I have since fallen in-love with that motor! I sold my 2002 V-Strom last year and bought a ST1300. That bike had no soul... it was like riding a vanilla ice cream cone. I ended-up trading it in on a new Tiger 800 for the wife. So after riding the Tiger around I have been wanting another big ADV bike. The Tiger is too small for me and just not my cup-of-tea. I hadn't really considered the Stelvio until a buddy of mine was telling me about his test ride on a 2013 BMW GS. He didn't like the new GS at all ( he currently has a '12 GS and a "13 800GS) and mentioned the price of the new Stelvio. The current price seems like a great value for what you get.
I plan on making the trip to a dealer to see the bike in-person soon. The one thing that I have noticed is there doesn't seem to be many companies making accessories for this bike. Touratech doesn't list Moto Guzzi on their website and SW Motech shows no rack parts for the bike either. Am I missing something?
Any comments or advice will be much appreciated. I am looking to purchase before the end of the year.
