Aesthetically, the X-Cape 1200 stands out for its design that combines versatility and ease of use in any context. Muscular lines highlight its touring vocation with touches of sportiness, while its generous proportions, tank shape and 840 mm seat height make it an accessible and comfortable motorcycle for all types of riders.

Smooth running and high performance are guaranteed by the Moto Morini V2 Corsa Corta EVO four-stroke engine, with a displacement of 1,187cc and an 87° V configuration ensures the perfect balance between compactness and performance, offering immediate response and substantial torque even at low revs. The 107 mm bore, combined with a 66 mm stroke, ensures an ideal balance between maximum power and smooth operation. The engine delivers a maximum power output of 95kW (129 Bhp) at 8,750 rpm, while maximum torque reaches 105 Nm at only 7,000 rpm, offering decisive thrust and brilliant handling at both medium and high revs.
