Moto Guzzi V85 TT 2022

Moto Guzzi V85 TT 2022

The cruiser among the touring enduros radiates cosiness and sovereignty. Its thundering V2 engine moves well and forgivingly. The chassis and brakes also work well. It is just as ill-suited to extreme off-road situations as it is in the hands of notorious knee-grinders. The Moto Guzzi V 85 TT likes to do its rounds in a refined and comfortable manner, and even for longer tours it offers enough practical comfort with its cardan drive and ergonomics. On top of that, it looks sensational and conveys emotion. The only thing some of our testers would like is a few more horses than its 80 hp.

You can still enter the corner with precision or turn the bike on. You can still correct every radius easily and at will. The Superduke is still more fun than a leather trouser. And you can still take on anyone with it.

High performance device

extreme potential - not fully achievable.

Geometry

suboptimal ride comfort

instrument design.
