Hello! I'll soon have driven 10,000 km in 12 weeks with my V85TT. Italy, Tuscany and Sardinia as well as in the Alps. The Guzzi is extremely reliable and is simply unbelievable fun. Italian motorcycles always have the reputation of not being particularly reliable. But those days are long gone. Here in Europe, two motorcycle magazines (Italy and Germany) have driven the V85TT over 50,000 km in an endurance test without any problems. I hope you have lots of fun with your Guzzi. Greetings from Bavaria
Thanks 🙏 mate I love mine , it’s my First Guzzi , have owned a Ducati, Aprilla and ITALIAN- made 1130 Benelli . I do love the style and build quality, handling of Italian bikes .
I used that one and have it hooked up to a rear back box ( to charge my light , compressor etc , also has a voltage meter) . I just want to put a second or near battery bars to run second phone / GPS .👍
I’m actually up North in Australia for our winter ( as it’s more tropical North - in the southern hemisphere. So I only have my Honda CRF 300 Rally up here . BUT while I’m away am getting a rear shock developed by “ IKON suspension “ in Australia. I know the owner Geoff and have brought plenty of suspensions upgrades off him in the past . Will let you know the outcome 👍
Hi, I bought a 2022 travel around 2 months ago, after 12 years of not owning / riding a motorcycle. It has been a little over 3000km since I bought. I saw in the video that you raised the windshield. It is not touching the head lights. Can you make a video showing how? It would be really appreciated. Mine has a original touring screen, but not enough. I also installed a wind deflector, it works fine, but I would like to see how you raised the windshield.
I've got a bit over 20,000 km on my v85tt. Can't ride it at the moment 'cause just had my right knee replaced. Love this bike, it's been perfect for the rough roads of DownEast Maine and Canada. I agree the rear shocks needs an upgrade. Curious what you replace yours with. Safe travels.
Depending on how “ snotty “ you want to ride , I wouldn’t take it in the Simpson or the harder rocker Flinders Ranges . It’s good for good dirt roads and fire trails , light sand . It’s a sort off roader - a bit more capable then a Suzuki 650 VStrom XT , but say less then a Triumph Tiger 800 X . It weights 231kg wet .
Thanks for sharing, looking at one of these. They look pretty rock solid

USB can be fitted under the seat for a second port. I run cord to panniers to charge stuff.

I just saw the 15000km video, it seems that you explained the screen riser product.

Do you think with the correct mods the bike would be capable of out back trips ?
