MOTO GUZZI V85TT 12,000 mile REVIEW - Is it still worth considering??? 

Great review, bike still looking good. I have almost 9 thousand miles on mine, and standard tyres still plenty of life in them. Bike holds up well for riding in all types of weather. I usually just hose her down, and blow dry. It would break my heart to sell the guzzi, so like yourself, im holding on to mine, looking forward to watching your Europe trip, keep her lit.

Glad to see you got the issue sorted Darren. Look forward to following your travels in Europe. Have a safe trip, subscribed.

A well done and detailed video. Enjoyed. I test rode this bike and it was a nice experience. Guzzis are always a great surprise, quite different from other bikes. Cheers bro.

Hey Bucky - nice review update! Here's to a great euro trip !! I recommend visiting the factory, it has a great museum, but mostly I recommended it for the local riding area, stunning! I've just got my bike back, following a rear end crash on my way to the French MotoGP, came back to me as a Cat N write off, just battle scares really, no great harm to the bike or myself, just a couple of cracked ribs - safe riding 👊

enjoy your trip, looking forward to new videos

You got her looking lovely, she's just like mine. I've done many add on's to suit my needs for the type of riding I do. The only thing I want to do next is fit more aggressive tyres, they tend to not pickup punctures as often as conventional treads. Look forward to your trip blogs. Safe riding. Enjoy👍

Sat on the newest model at the ABR festival this morning, changed the tubular back frame to a cast aluminium thing that looks crap, the front headlight/fairing adjustable section has changes also to a cast thing. The handle bar switches are new and very un pretty, I like the previous ones are weird but work well. Changed the oil pressure sensor on mine also (main dealer All Bikes Rochdale, great mechanic) Have a great trip ✌

I've got to say that for a bike that's been riden through 2 salty winters it looks pretty damn good. What screen did you install and how do you like it? I have the same bike and I love it.

I have over 20,000kms on mine now , I also did a Utube review on mine a few months back I’m in Australia and have the 2021 100th anniversary model. I changed my tyres to the Dunlop Trailmax mission “ a fantastic long lasting tyre and grip ( like peg scrapping in corners no problem) and also great traction in wet . BUT the front has less tread depth from new Rear 11.5mn and front I think 8.5mm - they done this so both wear at same time . I’m going to put a TCK80 on the front next time and still have trail max mission on the back . I’m in the process of getting a rear shock made up from a suspension company in Australia ( IKON suspension ) as I feel when the bike is loaded up rear shock to soft . I used SM- Motech pegs on 2 previous bikes and agree they are fantastic. What map did you get ? Factory or something else ? I haven’t done the D- Cat Y- pipe yet , I fitted the Mistral V- boast and the Velocity stack” both a massive difference to smoothness and some power increase.I had one problem it was the sonic wheel , which also required resetting the valves as well . But that’s been my only issue. I love your attitude about keeping the bike “ I’m the same mate “, I have have a Ducati, Aprilla and a “ Italian made Benelli 1130 Trek “ all had their issues but I do love Italian style

Came to check out the bike, will stay for the Euro trip videos narrated in my favorite accent 😀

How did you figure out it was the throttle...or did you just luck out with the new grips?

Great review, many thanks... One question- how did you mount your Carpuride screen there? I am waiting for mine, but still have no mounting solution... Thanks in advance...

Thanks for the review. The Ermax screen fits to it as it was an original one ;) Im gonna switch to it from my current combination which is "short ori plus additonal deflector" . Hope it will bring some improvement

Ciao ho anch'io una V85 TT euro 5, dal motore della mia moto quando fa caldo esce un rumore tipo ta ta ta ta ta ta che non mi piace, secondo me non è battito in testa. Il rumore lo fa quando riparto dai 2000 ai 3000 giri. La tua moto cos'era alla fine che non andava?

Remember if you are having trouble with the cruise control after putting on the OME heated grips you have to calibrate the new grips. I learnt from experience, the cruise control kept on cancelling until I got them calibrated. 👍😎

Are you heading on your own or with friends? Thks😊

I had a similar intermittent starting problem last year (albeit on a Triumph) that turned out to be a starter solenoid on its way out.. Ten quid fix and easy to swap out.

Nicely done 👍 Would you have a link for the barkbuster?

29000 on mine rides better than when new , only issue is 3 punctures in 3 yrs , either bad luck or anakee adventure are too good at hoovering up screws and nails

Have great European adventure.
