2019 Moto Guzzi V85 TT First Look
The V85 TT is aimed directly at the modern-classic market while reminiscing on the air-cooled enduro bikes of the 1970’s. Instantly, your eyes will catch the large, 5.5-gallon rally-inspired fuel tank, twin headlights, and distinctive front fender, along with the retro paint scheme.
But the V85 TT isn’t only a visual appeal. Not by a long shot.
At its core, the Moto Guzzi Is powered by a 850cc V-twin engine, which is said to produce throaty 78 horsepower. The Italian engineers then fitted the V85 TT with cruise control, traction control, ABS systems, as well as three selectable riding modes (Road, Rain, Off-road). Oh, and all of these settings are accessed via a full-color TFT display. Retro at heart, but not so much in the details.
The V85 TT is fitted with a 19-inch front and 17-inch rear spoked wheel to help with light off-road riding, with suspension coming with preload adjustability. It’s low seat height will also help when the going gets dirty.
While there’s no confirmed date of when the V85 TT will make its way stateside or what it price tag will be, we can’t wait to get our hands on one. Moto Guzzi, please ship ours now. Please. Michael Gilbert
