EICMA 2024 New Stelvio Colour Scheme for 2025

Thank goodness finally a gloss paint.
 
Looks nice, they don't appear to have upgraded the suspension though.
As a matter of interest does it need much done to it , thinking about a new one next year to replace the 1250gsa ( with Maxton shocks)
 
Depends on what you want to use the bike for Neil. A roads and good B roads the suspension is absolutely fine, in fact it's very good. It starts to show it's limitations on the more gnarly type of road. Due to the stiffness of the rear suspension unit the bike starts to get a little unwieldy on the rougher roads. Having said that ,it is a great bike and an absolute pleasure to ride most of the time. If I was riding to Portsoy using only A roads I would take the Stelvio. If I was going too the Dales or NYMoors for the day I would take the V85. I do sincerely believe the V100 engine is the best I've ever had in a bike.

Happy with mine. Spent some time fiddling and. Now happy. Like wrinkly, I think it is pretty perfect for my use, it was superb on a recent 1600 miles tour of the Ireland coast... 👍
 
Further info the bike is a limited edition to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the Stelvio Pass, specced up with centre stand and other options as standard

What colour is the centre stand?
 
I'm not in the awful camp, but those colours don't do it for me. Maybe they could try orange.
 
10/10 for an odd question ................... (I would guess black ... is it important ?)
Yes it is, in context.
The thread is about a new colour scheme so if its boring old black on the centre stand then I am out....
 
Initially I was in the 'hmm, not sure' camp but having seen various videos it looks like the colours are actually pretty vivid, especially compared to washed out photo above. I'm now veering towards 'yeah, I like that'. Love the blue, not so sure about the red tho' - maybe needs to be more 'orangey'.
Don't need or want the radar nonsense.
I have no strong opinion on the centre stand...
