I love this one. really want buy it in KOREA

Hi David, many thanks for the video. Ive just done my first 500km on my brand new Centenario and absolutely love it but for one thing. The wind buffeting over 95 km/h is unpleasant. The effect is similar with the high and low Moto Guzzi screen. I have both. I admit that my helmet is a modular one and maybe little big for me but I don't get the same effect on my KTM 390 adv...Just wondering if anyone has any thoughts about this. I just ordered a motor boxer wind deflector in the hope it helps.

I just hit 900 miles in about a week on my 2023. It's half the HP of my last bike and twice the fun!

Does this only work on injected engines. Would it help older twins ?

Own a V85TT from 2023. Very nice from the beginning. Nevertheless, I added the headers an Y-pipe (with cat, without is no go in our days in my humble opinion) from Mistral together with the velocity stack and the Twin-Boost. From my experience, the boost only makes sense with the pipes and the stack. Checkes some setups with my brother who has the same bike. Finally, I added a K&N air filter - very happy with this setup which doesn't void the warranty compared to remapping.

Hi David, how does it compare to your old MV(which I have just bought)?

That helmet cam is terrible I felt sick almost immediately. Too bad I was interested in the '24

Try the other way. OMG its hard especially if car driver's come down on the tight steep one!

I wonder if anyone who previously owned a Griso 1200 has put it in for one of these and if it was found to be a better bike.

What kind of innerbags do you use?

Riding through Lacets de Montvernier looks like an exhilarating experience! The winding roads and stunning scenery make for an unforgettable journey. Thanks for sharing your motorcycle adventure on the way home! 💕

Don't think I'd fancy doing that on a Harley 😂

The food was excellent as well as the stunning scenery. 👌 👍

Great Footage, jealous of those beautiful Alps riding , what is your GPS . 🏍🏍👍👍😎😎John & Tanina in Australai.. 2023 Super Tenere 1200

Stunning 👍👍

Very pleasant to watch, David. I find that 'through the windscreen' pov videos often more informative than formal travel videos.

Nice video, I bought a 2023 V7 special for my first Guzzi. Only had it a few months and tradded it for a V85tt:). I love my V85 and plan on keeping it a long time for many of the same reasons you like yours.

Good video, and thanks. Its strange how subjective bikes are. Ive ridden and owned bikes for over 50 years and cant say ive ever met a bike without character? I have owned a guzzi v7 and ridden a friends v85... At the tome time i was on an old gs1100 ...and on the country roads i prefered the gs...it just felt more planted. The 800gs is on my test list so will look for the missing character whatever that is 👍

After watching your review I thought I would book a test ride of the CF Moto 800 MT. I have tried four different dealers based in Lancashire, Yorkshire, Sheffield and Stoke. None have a demo bike to test ride. Apparently there is a shortage of this particular model in the country. Does anyone know of a dealer who has a demo bike to test ride. Thanks

Now you've had it for a while - how are you getting on with the new screen? Better than original?

Still one of the most underrated bikes out there. I wanted one in DCT but then changed my mind to manual but didn’t buy a 2021-22 in time. The manual was difficult to find. Now it’s DCT only for the US.

Some very nice bikes there 👌 👍

Nice!😊 I have the same one, upmap, headers/de-cat and öhlings. Love it!

I would like to know why you sold the MV, it looks so elegant and smart, is powerful and seems to be very well built. I am tempted by a MV turismo veloce, but as it is a very expensive bike I want to be sure I am not making a bad choice.

I wish we could get that color in USA 😢

So, when you get engine hot then you should feel difference where lean mixture do problems... ------ I just got V-Boost from Mistral. What a disappointment for 150€! If I had just known what it will be in the box! There is no "device," just two connectors with a few wires and a simple temperature sensor. Toooo expensive! So, lets dive into what does V-Boost actually do? Basically, it works as a secondary air temperature sensor (ATS) placed in a cooler location. It acts as kinda interceptor for the original IATS data traveling to the ECU (see pic). V-Boost intercepts it and sends forward cooler data. V-Boost targets the fuel mixture related to air temperature. It benefits air-cooled machines that undergo ECU liposuction to comply with emission standards. V-Boost is a good medicine for potential knocking and for situations described below in points 9-12. Don't expect other performance improvements; any other possible or "feels like" improvements are just collateral. Here are a few basic facts supporting this theory (by HPAcademy.com) 1. One of the most critical parameters we need to measure to do this is the intake air temperature monitored by an intake air temp sensor or IAT sensor for short. 2. As the air temperature changes, so does the air density. 3. Hot air has a lower density, and contains less oxygen hence, less fuel is needed to maintain a constant air/fuel ratio. 4. On the other hand, cold air is denser, containing more oxygen and thus requiring additional fuel. 5. The intake air temp sensor provides air temperature information to the ECU, which can then be referenced by compensation tables 6. Where the intake air temp sensor is mounted is also important in order to give the ECU a realistic measure of the actual temperature of the air entering the engine. 7. Often intake air temp sensors are fitted into the intake manifold which might sound ideal, but in my own experience, this can actually create a few problems 8. While at high air flow values, the sensor will give an accurate measure of the true inlet charge temperature 9. The intake manifold can also be prone to heat soaking at low speed or when the engine is shut off. 10. This results in excessively high readings on a hot restart or when idling in traffic. 11. In this situation, the intake air temperature sensor is being influenced by the heat of the intake manifold rather than the actual temperature of the air and this affects the accuracy of the air/fuel ratio 12. The common result is an engine that runs excessively lean and responds erratically for a few minutes after a hot restart. 13. I personally (author) find the best compromise is to fit the intake air temperature sensor into the intake pipe just before the throttle body (Mistrals sends it further away - under seat) In very simplified terms, with V-Boost, the engine runs as with classic DellOrtos, where there aren't any on-spot corrections regarding air density, e.g., temperature - it's just a constant flood with a rich mixture, which helps with engine cooling (contrary to popular opinion - gasoline play role as a coolant also). Anyway, I think that V-Boost is a pretty clever idea for air-cooling engines! But i think it could be done as a DIY project for just a few bucks and not as pricey as Mistral's silverware! www.gutsibits.co.uk/pr/TheShed/Downloads/VTwinBoostInstallGuideV85TT.pdf www.mikroe.com/pt100-3-wire-temperature-probe www.hpacademy.com/courses/efi-tuning-fundamentals/efi-components-intake-air-temperature-sensor/#:~:text=The%20intake%20air%20temp%20sensor,be%20referenced%20by%20compensation%20tables.&text=An%20intake%20air%20temp%20sensor%20is%20a,resistor%20known%20as%20a%20thermistor.&text=These%20are%20a%20two%2Dwire,with%20relation%20to%20air%20temperature facebook.com/share/p/PMF9MmrbKz39V8j5/

great. It's a nice looking bike. Any other comments?

I wish we could get the 750 in nz. Only the larger DCT we have, my arthritic knees aren’t gonna get better and slight arthritis in left hand. I love the looks of my black matt T120, but looks aren’t helping me practically. Also have a XMax Yammy scoot. Awesome scoot. Cheers.

Dude, back up, show the whole fkng bike, stop thinking youre Steven Spielberg, damn

the beauty of these bikes is screw & lock nut valve adjustment, so cheap to maintain by the home mechanic

All these bikes are all the same good bikes

Those look nice!

Great video, thanks!

Got mine last year 2023 adv pack included. Extended front and rear mud guards . Engine guard. Adv mirrors. Radiator guard. Givi pannier racks . Garmin sat nav. Now its ready 😊

David sulla tua V85 TT hai installato anche collettori maggiorati e compensatore Y. Mistral?

i'm sure this guy hasn't watched this vid - such dreadful camera work, had to stop before the end.

Nice one, I’m getting mine in a couple of weeks. The engine loves being Rev high and they really come alive after 6000.Atb. Simon

I have had my NC 750 DCT for just over a year…returning after 43 years of not riding due to nasty rash, drunk driver ended my RD 250 LC, and almost me…..so I returned to riding, love this bike….it goes very well, great responsive engine….I kitted mine out with centre stand, handlebar hand protectors, front fender extender and rear hugger, also wind deflectors…..my screen is the standard screen, works fine, not that bad for wind…..one thing though, the bolts that hold the battery cover are utter rubbish…., absolute sod to undo…two screws broke…so a neat strip of Velcro does a better job……wish list for me…..maybe a second front disc…a screen that does not scratch when you look at it…and maybe a better display…..horses for courses…..but for me it’s perfect…oh and it’s not a little bike…..it’s big….hehe…mine is the grey silver one.

Awesome, thanks for uploading. Waiting for mine here in the states!

Nice video, enjoyed your observations. I’ve a V7 850 and a BMW rt1250 and at some future point will be going down to one again. The V85 is very much on the radar.

Hi David, due to your video the installation was done in 10 minutes on my v85tt (2019). Thanks a lot! Accelerating actually feels more direct and you think you have more power. It drives somehow more balanced.

Very shaky, jittery video so that I only lasted 5 minutes. Dave from Canada

Thoroughly enjoyable video.👍👍

👏👏👏👏👏🇲🇦

No TFT display ? Why ? Is it 2024 model

Hi david thank you for a straightforward review of this bike. Can I ask you please how long do you keep your bikes for? Reason I ask is any bike as fresh as your 85tt will be pleasant to ride as it’s quite new, ie novelty factor initially, but long term is a different kettle of fish. Thanks

I have the Dct crosstourer 1200x and it is superb. Had the manual crosstourer and changed to the Dct.

Hi David, i've had tne nc for nearly three years now and it's a great commuter/ everyday bike. It's quicker than people think and the frunk is brilliant. Fuel econony in the 70's mpg is easily acheivable. Weak points are the suspension which has little adjustment and can be a bit crashy, and the front brake is a bit weak if you're pushing on. Interestingly i'm considering a swap to the V85tt. I want to go back to some touring after a ten year break and wanted a bit more power and cruise control. Having watched your reviews of your bike you mentioned two up touring might be a challenge on the V85tt, is this just because of power or another reason. Cheers Ade.

Very underrated bike

I bought a 2023 NC750XD to have as a reliable workhorse next to my Moto Guzzi, but I have to admit I am riding the NC a lot more than I had inspected, for me it's just a fantastic do it all bike, and if I was forced to sell one of my bikes it wouldn't be the NC. 👍😎
