MOTO GUZZI 1200 8v ABS STELVIO ADVENTURE TOURER VERY LOW MILES 17,000. THE BIKE HAS THE ROLLER TAPPET VALVE CONVERSION SORTED UNDER WARRANTY, HAVE THE PAPERWORK FOR THIS AND LOTS OF OTHER PAPERWORK FOR OTHER SERVICE WORK OVER THE YEARS.IVE HAD THREE BMW GS’s OVER THE YEARS AND THIS BIKE TROUNCES ALL OF THEM IN MY OPINION, MUCH MORE FEEL ON THE FRONT END AND FANTASTIC LOW TORQUE.HAND GUARDS, REAR HUGGER, ENGINE BARS CENTRE STAND.THIS BIKE HAS THE ABSOLUTLEY ESSENTIAL ROLLER TAPPET UPGRADE. THIS BRINGS IT IN TO LINE WITH THE LATER BIKES 2013 ONWARDS WHEN THE FACTORY STARTED FITTING THEM TO ALL NEW 1200 8V BIKES IN THEIR RANGE INC GRISO, NORGE ETC. SO NOW CAPABLE OF HUGH MILEAGE.  DON’T EVEN THINK OF BUYING BIKE THAT HAS NOT HAD THIS UPGRADE AS THE VALVES WILL FAIL AT SOME POINT. In "flat tappet" engines, the cam lobe rides directly against the face of the tappet. This is the original Moto Guzzi design that has the problem. IIn "roller" tappet engines, there is rolling bearing, which rotates around as it presses against the camshaft, thereby the two surfaces glide smoothly against each other.  
 IF YOU HAVE NEVER RIDEN ONE OF THESE YOU ARE IN FOR TREAT, VERY COMFORTABLE AND POWERFUL.THE BIKE HAS STAMPED FSH, OWNERS MANUAL AND TWO SETS OF KEYS. INC FULL SET OF GENUINE GUZZI LUGGAGE.ITS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION WITH SOME SMALL MARKS COMENSURATE WITH ITS AGE. IT HAS JUST BEEN SERVICED AND GIVEN THE FULL WORKS INC ALL FILTERS AND OILS AND TAKEN FOR SPIN ON THE DYNO, BY IAIN RHODES OF RPM, THE ACKNOWLEGED MAESTRO, OF ALL THAT IS ITALIAN.YOU ARE WELCOME TO VIEW THE BIKE IN DERBYSHIRE.ITS EITHER CASH OR CLEARED BACS TRANSFER. BEFORE RIDING IT AWAY.
