Dealer is accross the country from me (would have to do remote deal, have it shipped) has a left over '16 Stelvio 1200 for $5000 off msrp. Everything I've researched about the Stelvio 1200 I like. It's range (8.5 gallon tank @ 40 mpg), it's utilitarian Mad Max look, ease of DIY maintenance, CARC shaft drive, leg room (I'm tall). Not crazy about the color on the farings and tank but 2017 is last model yr for Stelvio's and not found others as deep a discount. Someone on Wild Guzzi forum (joined there to learn) said to make sure it doesn't have any fuel tank deformity from ethanol blended fuel sitting in it for a long time in the showroom.
Just have to get over butterflies about buying a bike not seen and sat on, no test ride, etc. On dealer trust and model research alone.
