Motorcycle specifications Moto-Guzzi 1200 BREVA 2011 A breath on the shore

presentation of the 1200 BREVA 2011

to boost torque and mid-range availability, the big Breva changes cubic capacity and boosts its transverse-head twin. From 1064, Mandello's block is now 1151 cm3. It gains over 9 horsepower and over 10 mkg of torque, but doesn't adopt 4 valves per cylinder technology - which would certainly give it more watts, but a temperament that's perhaps too sporty for its niche and philosophy. For that, there's the 1200 Sport or the Griso.

displacement aside, the 1200 Breva is strictly similar to the 1100. Same elegant profile, attractive and comprehensive dashboard, rigorous chassis and optional ABS. A word of caution, however: with its high displacement, engine character and weight approaching 250 kg with full tanks, the Breva is not to be approached like a 650 Bandit. A little experience and humility should be part of the riding code. Then the bike can reveal all its charm and joviality, and the delicacy of its comfort (albeit a little dry).

LANAR Model 2010

Hello everyone,
Excellent bike, autonomy, braking, driveshaft, still running, 4500kms in 3 weeks 2 years ago, 2000 last year in 10 days etc etc...I ride I ride, 0 problems or trifles...a little heavy maybe, with practice it's ok.
The noise is nice too. 03/24/2018 16:04 Rating : 4/5 Respond to LANAR

domdom Model 2011

acquired at 50000km, fully equipped (top case, suitcases, tank cover and pannier), very pleasant to ride, you have to adapt to braking and engine braking, an electric thimble that "screws up" (stalls when you stand) but so much more character than a motorcycle with slanted eyes! I regret without regretting my 1000 DL V-strom SUZUKI. very good range and comfort like the SUZ.5000KM in 2 months with no major worries apart from that pesky pod (but japs can have this kind of problem too) 09/13/2017 16:28 Rating : 4/5 Respond to domdom

Fasty Model 2012

If you're looking for a motorcycle that's comfortable and fun to ride on your own, or with two of you loaded up like a mule.
If you want a motorcycle that's easy to maintain and economical.
If you're looking for an engine that makes you feel good every day.
Look no further, you've found it! 06/25/2014 23:12 Rating : 5/5 Respond to Fasty

Elle confirme mon rêve.

Sergio 17 Model 2012

For almost a year now, the breva 1200 ABS has been part of my daily life. After adding a high bubble to improve rider protection and a pair of cylinder guards, my life with it is nothing but 100% pleasure. Even at the pump, the pleasure is shared, since the 23-liter tank allows over 400 km on the road, most often using the engine speed between 2500 and 3500 rpm, i.e. between 75 and 105 km/h (hyper-precise gauge). I've added two long-range lights (placed on the cylinder shields) as I found the lighting a little weak in the high beam position. 04/26/2013 11:06 Rating : 5/5 Respond to Sergio 17

titi Model 2012

After several BMWs all too high because I'm only 1.65m tall. I turned to MOTO GUZZI. First with a BREVA 750 ie then to a BREVA 1200 ABS.
I've finally got a low-slung, powerful, torquey and reliable motorcycle with ABS and a universal joint. 11/12/2012 22:48 Rating : 5/5 Respond to titi

Sergio 17 Model 2012

It's a true motorcycle that conjugates itself to the Italian present. The charm quickly takes hold as soon as you put your buttocks on the saddle and start the Breva's heart beating. I soon forgot all about the Japanese 4-cylinder, and lived to the rhythm of the V-twin's atypical architecture. Having had the opportunity to ride an 1100 version two years ago, I knew that my garage would welcome the bellissima machina. It's been a week now, and the divorce with my Japanese bike has been consummated since the arrival of the 1200 Breva. A number of teething problems have been corrected, including the position of the blinker comodo, which has finally found a logical position. The mirrors also vibrate much less than on the 1100 version. Go ahead, cross the Alps and ride a bella mecanica, happiness may be just around the corner. 07/07/2012 17:09 Rating : 4/5 Respond to Sergio 17
