The Moto Guzzi V85 TT is a travel enduro motorcycle that masterfully combines timeless aesthetics with contemporary technology. Introduced in 2019, the V85 TT is designed for both on-road touring and light off-road adventures, embodying the “Tutto Terreno” (All Terrain) spirit.
At the heart of the V85 TT lies an 853cc air-cooled, 90-degree V-twin engine, delivering 80 horsepower at 7,750 rpm and 80 Nm of torque at 5,000 rpm. This power is transmitted through a six-speed gearbox and a shaft drive, ensuring smooth and reliable performance across diverse terrains.
The motorcycle features a steel tubular frame with the engine serving as a stressed member, contributing to its robust handling characteristics. Its suspension system comprises a 41mm upside-down fork with adjustable preload and damping, offering 170mm of travel, and a rear monoshock with similar adjustability, also providing 170mm of travel. This setup ensures a comfortable and controlled ride, whether navigating city streets or exploring unpaved paths.
