Stelvio TT
- Thread starter Dave H
- Start date
If history is an indication of the Stelvio arriving here, then 2010. If you really want a Stelvio, grab one now and put the smaller rear wheel on and you're there.
I'll be very curious as to the MSRP of the TT.

I agree with Todd - don't bother waiting. The TT is just a standard machine with a heap of accessories bolted on, most of which probably have better or cheaper equivalents available elsewhere.
The rear wheel might be the only difficulty, but I'm working on that.

How much will the new rear wheel cost?
I am guessing $1K by the time it gets across the pond :woohoo:
hmy: Then you need to get a tire and valve stem, mounted and balanced...another $200 +. :S
I agree with others that you can farkle a bike with better bits, cheaper if time permits (waiting for the right price).
But if the Italian's were smart :blink: they would get the bike on US soil and price it well below its rivals (BMW). But it sounds like the ones in the know are going by history..........to bad:unsure:

Can you buy a tubeless Alpina rim to accept 150 tires ?? Buchanans can do the lacing. I cannot see anything on the Alpina website that offers rims only.

Believe its same tank range. Its a crap off road bike anyway so the tyres will be a wasted on it, unless you are mad enough to take it on long off road trips- I am sure someone will!
Yeah I can feel a bit of madness coming on too. :woohoo:
Problem is the Stelvio is still a ghost in this country, one machine appeared on the second hand web sites a few weeks ago being off loaded by the importer (JSG) through a dealer in Sydney - it was one of the three that they brought in for ADR evaluation, no way would I buy it given that it has probably been bench run within an inch of siezing and then thrashed by every journalist and wannabe who could get their grubby little mits on it. Since then silence is the deafening reply to any enquiry, at this stage it looks like the Stelvio is going to be a no show here, I suppose we'll just have to wait and see a little while longer - the F800 is looking better every day that Guzzi stuff around though, I'm getting itchy feet for some dirt. :angry:

The Stelvio is fine on dirt. You may not wanna do clay pits with the boys on 250's but its fine for going on dirt roads, single track and the like. Just be aware of your limits.
Ive taken a GS many many times into situations beyond which it was intended. One's attitude makes a big difference in how that works out. I've put enough miles on a Stelvio now that I know it would be just as good, maybe better, than the GS. The Guzzi first gear is mush lower and the engine is more torquey just off idle. Maybe you COULD walk up those clay pit walls with it.

I did find a problem a couple of days back.
It had rained the day before. I rode it up the hill to my back yard. It was a little slimy, but no deal. Later in the day I road it back to the street to head to work, and grabbed a good bit of throttle. :woohoo: Don't want to apply too many horses to a slimy rear tire. :lol:
