Moto Guzzi V85 TT 2019
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.

It's amazing how much an unagitated, practical all-round motorbike like the Suzuki V-Strom 800DE can get to your heart. It is probably due to this clever design with manageable electronic features that can be optimally customised to personal needs. Thanks to the excellent Ride-by-Wire system, the engine is more powerful in the lower range than the displacement would suggest and does everything right both on and off-road. With 220 millimetres of travel at the front and rear, the suspension is really well trimmed for off-road, but clearly also offers an advantage for road riders on bad roads. The ergonomics are good so far, only tall riders should consider the higher, optional seat due to the somewhat acute knee angle.
