Narrow in the waist to allow freedom of movement, the new Moto Guzzi V85 TT ensures total comfort for the driver and the passenger. Equipped with a fully digital instrumentation and DRL LED lights, it is ready to set the way for the future. 2019 Moto Guzzi V85TT Review: I'm thrilled to say that the nice folks at Wheels Motorcycles in Peterborough have lent me my first ever Moto Guzzi motorcycle.
It was only two years ago that Moto Guzzi introduced the (then) all-new V85 TT to its lineup. The Stelvio descendant had big threads to fill but as we quickly found out, a legacy of Italian adventurers wasn't enough to intimidate the newcomer.
With the new year comes a new reality and starting in 2021, new motorcycles have to meet stricter emissions regulations. Though the V85 TT's twin was already compliant from the get-go, Moto Guzzi seemingly saw this as an opportunity to upgrade its retro-adventurer.
Moto Guzzi announced that it's zhuzhing things up for 2021 by giving the V85 a few minor yet significant upgrades, starting with a little more grunt. The firm stated that the engine will now produce more low and mid-range torque thanks 'optimized lifting of the pushrod and rockers timing cams and a consequent adapting of the engine control electronics.' However, no specific torque numbers were disclosed. In its current iteration, the 853cc V-twin is rated at 80 horsepower and 60 b-ft of torque.
