That is a possibility the industry has been speculating about. The air-cooled engine would indeed be gone on such a Stelvio.

Yeah I wish it would stay air cooled but then I’m old school

Bigger engine and more for 2 up is my guess.
Hopefully weight and seat height won’t balloon.

The Guzzi V85TT is a living Euro 5 compliant relic. Being an air-cooled oddity sets apart from a liter-class ADV offering.

A bud of mine rides a Stelvio 1200. Very quick, very smooth, very nice.

I used to own a nice burnt-orange 2012 MG Stelvio. Wonderful bike: very fast & powerful, very smooth, beautiful (at least in my eyes), large range (with its 32 liter tank!!) and overall good quality build. Main con (and reason for selling it 3 years ago and swapping it for the CB1100) was its weight: a hefty 660 lbs = 300 kg wet. It was also BIG and (with a full tank) top heavy, resulting in a few scary moments when stopping on uneven ground. All in all, it often felt like the Stelvio was in charge and was taking ME for a ride, instead of the other way. So I sold it and am now very happy with my sweet & gentle CB1100.
But every now & then I still remember the enormous smooth power of the Stelvio.

Guzzi gains a certain special respect.
