It's a really good bike, and your review is very well organized and informative, so thank you for that. The only I issue I have with the V85 is that the 6th gear. It's just TOOOOO short for touring. At 120 km/h it's cursing at around 4000 RPM out of an engine that cuts off at around 8000 RPM, so you'll be feeling that vibration. If we're going to be honest with ourselves, you'll be going a little more than 120 km/h if you're touring, at least I do. At 140 km/h, the RPM is around 5000, and you an just hear that engine spinning like mad and the vibrations slightly translating in the bars. The vibration isn't much of an issue, it's just that you feel like you can't sustain that speeds for long without tiring the engine out long term.

I couldn't agree more with your review. I bought the travel version 2 weeks ago. Absolutely loving it! This is a very unique bike! If someone would ask me.. is it worth it? The answer is.. it depends. You do not buy this bike for the overwhelming power, or the high tech gadgets, you buy it because it is an MG. Also.. all the other bikes in the segment have that high tech-sharp-space-alien-modern look which makes them all look more or less the same.. and then there is the MotoGuzzi V85TT..

I think the "Special" in yellow, white and red looks better. Actually I don't like this colour scheme and it's a shame that you have to choose. Either having all the gadgets included for a better pricetag or having the better looking bike. Kind of harsh, isn't it? The Euro 5 engine is also a step back. I mean you're right more torque is always a good thing on an adventure bike, but they could have added some more ponies anyway. Especially since this bike was never overwhelming with its power, was it? Still, I love this bike, love the feel when it massages your hands and your butt and the way it sounds when you hit the accelerator. I believe it is something no other bike than a Moto Guzzi can do!

Having now owned a V85TT travel for 11 months now, I know its positives and weaknesses. It's a very nice bike to ride, but its a bit short legged when using on the highway, Piagio should have made 4th, 5th, and 6th gears for highway use. The mud guards are useless or non existant, The clutch and brake levers are weak as I already broke a clutch lever when I gently lowered the bike to the ground whilst pushing it in wet grass and slipped, the bike then had to be trailered home. The panniers are terrible opening outward ,items fall out and is difficult to re stack things in order to close the lids. After all this, I still really like the bike and plan to keep it.

Hi Scott; thank you for the honest reviews on the Moto Guzzi‘s V85; Being 69 years old now and returning to riding after a 35 year pause; I purchased a 2021 V7 850 Special; 5000 miles on it now and really enjoying it the power and torque of these new 850 motors is just right. I also just purchased a 2022 travel V85 and requested the dealer to change the gray body parts to the Centenario green and silver body parts with beautiful brown seat; being only 5’7 with a 29 inch inseam; I’ve also requested dealer to install a 1 inch suspension lowering kit and remove the rubber bungs under the seat which will also lower it 3/4 of an inch more in seat height; I realize I’ll be giving up some ground clearance and travel because of this lowering kit; but using it mostly for street riding and some dirt road use at my age I feel I shouldn’t be hindered by it; One reason for adding the second Moto Guzzi may be my bias for Italian bikes and being 100% Italian and the simplicity of air cooling, shaft drive and easy maintenance I can perform myself also the V7 as much as I like it; not quite as comfortable seat wise for longer than one hour riding times; and I hope the V 85 should fill the gap; I also believe the new lower torque curve / power band of V85 is a welcome addition! Keep up the good work appreciate it John

Informative review. Thanks. This bike has been on my radar for almost a year now. My only reservation is that it is not liquid cooled. Living in Florida, and contrary to popular opinion, our "riding season" is actually SHORTENED, rather than extended, due to the extreme heat for 4-6 months/year. Think full riding gear in triple digit temps. Not a lot of fun. I wonder how much heat this MG throws off, and at the rider, to his/her detriment. Any input there would be appreciated. Discussion of heated grips, which seems to abound regarding this machine....again, a non issue in Florida (do they make air conditioned grips?). Styling, totally in the eye of the beholder. I actually see hints of the Mandello v100 in this TT85, which i think is attractive. Agree with the contention that shaft drive in this category of sized bike is a huge plus. Tired of chain maintenance. I've owned the V-Strom, and the Triumph Tiger 800 in the past, and am looking for another ADV style machine to compliment an in-town runabout street maching (Z900rs). If this were liquid cooled, I think it would be a slam dunk! ...oh, and if it had air conditioned grips as well ;)
@NothingToProve Жыл бұрын
Yea, you will feel the heat coming off the cylinders onto your legs, in cooler climates that a plus but in your, not so much 🙁 But being air cooled means the engine runs cooler from the get go, it's not stressed as much as a liquid cooled motor.

I had the versys650 which had similar performance and better lean angle, also had 650 v strom both of which I loved doing wheelies on, big road trips with gravel thrown in and the occasional track day! The V85TT doesn’t have the lean angle and mine doesn’t like to wheelie (weak clutch) but it is awesome! It can fang a mountain (mich road 5 atm) pegs drag but not an issue, really great on dirt roads, not top heavy, super lovely to ride, 400km plus range. Best bike I’ve ever ridden in 40 yrs of riding for full tank, bags packed, point it to the horizon, just done 25 000km and can’t recommend enough. Caveat I’ve had bikes that wheelie faster than this bike top speed, it ain’t slow but it’s not a super bike and that is ok! I still smile every day I ride it.

Since your reviews goes a bit further in details , i would suggest to try to find from manuals or from your own research, the difference in consumption with speed of 130 km/h and 150km/h. In this case i am pretty sure that Bmw Gs goes up to 9-10 l/ 100 km and v85 tt that i have goes only 6.5 -7. Also you can focus on details like service cost in your excel sheet, i have never seen this in any reviews and especially the period we all live now, cost matters!! Thank you in advance !

I’ve been thinking of getting back into bikes and it’s taken Moto Guzzi to build something to make me feel that way. Great review, thanks.

This color scheme is very nice. Would be my first pick if I bought one today.

I've liked the look of this bike since it ever came out, I just don't think I could own one sadly, it doesn't excite me as much as the bigger adv bikes

Well done on this review, mate. Would you recommend this model to someone with 192 cm height?

Hi Scott, I'm loving your reviews. Getting my driving license and looking at bikes for next year. Would you suggest this bike to a beginner? Also, I have seen from other reviews that this bike seems to have some issues with switching gear between 3 & 4, also big amounts of heat coming from the heads. Did you experience any of that?

Yea, this is beginner friendly for an ADV bike no problem. As far as the gear, I've been on 2 of these now and never felt any problems with the gears. But some guys like to complain about something. It's a Moto Guzzi, when you shift you shift, you know when it goes into the next gear. Kind of like the clunk on a BMW boxer motor or Harley. Your supposed to feel it, some reviewers don't like that. Heat: both bikes I rode in the spring so it was kind of cool but this is air cooled so if you live in a hot climate it will run hotter. take care, Scott
