- Hey TH-camrs! In this video I take my new to me V85TT for a ride through some actual sunshine, with a few musings along the way about the bike and the things that may already be apparent for other owners of a V85TT. Enjoy!

Keep up the great videos. And hope you still love the bike. Had mine ovwr 3 years and like it even more now...especially as the engine gets better the more it wears in. Had some really good 2 up tours round Wales as well.
2023 Guardia. Love mine too. 8300 miles in 6-months. Never been back to the dealership for any issues. This could be my “forever “ bike.
That's what I'm hoping too! First service since purchase is looming already, which I'm planning on doing myself. One of the attractions of the bike is the simplicity of maintenance.
If there is no dealer, is it possible to service it yourself? I really like GUZZI, a piece product is not for everyone.
I bought my Guardia because of the colour scheme, I never test rode it before. Riding home from the dealership was a lovely experience. Only problems I have found, 1. The horn is pitiful, 2. The light switch has a gap for water to enter when switched fully forward and 3. The cruise control light flashing just below the left turn repeater. It can make you think the indicator is on.
Moto Guzzi’s have got tons of character.
You can change modes as you ride. Just don't have any throttle input. And toggle the modes with the mode switch (starter button) on the right.
This is a beautiful , unique bike , ride safe mate
Hi Ed you don’t have to stop to change ride modes. It is really a lovely bike, you will be addicted very soon 😊 greetings from Belgium
Hi Filip - I'm only going off what the sales chap said when I picked it up. Good to know though - thanks!
Hi ed can you please do a review after 10k please. Enjoy your new bike.
Will do!
I'm currently riding a cb500x. Also considering a V85 as a replacement.
Good as the CB500x is I wanted something with a bit more grunt, more suited to carrying a pillion and with some character - so far the V85 is living up to the task!
@edmoto4232 Glad to hear that. Currently the 500x is my first 'big' bike (2 or 3 years now), and I want something more suitable for pillon (be nice to see a pillons point of view?) and also motorbike camping touring (sick of chain maintenance).
Ed - curious as to what you think of the wind protection. I picked up a V85 a couple of weeks ago. Love the bike, but mine has the tiny windscreen which is of no real use. I was thinking of getting the larger screen like you have. Nice video!
@@tommerson5121 The biggest issue I had was with turbulence behind the screen which I've fixed with some deflectors that fit in the scallops at the front of the fuel tank - virtually eliminated it altogether.
@@edmoto4232 Thanks Ed.
