Introducing the Moto Guzzi 1200 Sport
A true show of class does more than just turn heads.
Moto Guzzi shows its sporting soul in its newest bike, the 1200 Sport. This evolved form of the 90° twin cylinder 1200cc engine features new solutions in its design and chassis while giving a new meaning to rider comfort.
Just one look at it tells you that it will soon become a cult item for real enthusiasts. The graphics are the same as on competition models, the stylish front discs and the racing exhaust that suggest speed give an immediate impression of the 1200 Sport’s character.
The attention to detail is typically Italian and its Moto Guzzi DNA and high-tech injection system make it one of those machines that is best appreciated from the saddle. From here too, its patented handling system can only truly be felt – a perfect blend of incredible performance and the sheer pleasure of riding.
