Latest 1200cc version of the distinctive, classic but recently reworked Guzzi across the frame V-twin is one massive lump of metal. The Moto Guzzi 1200 Sport's 90 hp (67 Kw) is nothing to get worked up about but it’s grunty enough, flexible, the shaft drive gives peace of mind and it’s a fabulous thing to behold.
