Ever since its release, Moto Guzzi’s mighty V85 TT earned a very special place in many riders hearts. Given its delicious design language and state-of-the-art features, it’s no wonder this Italian beast became a genuine superstar in the realm of two-wheeled machines. Let’s take a second to remind ourselves about some of its main characteristics, shall we?
Within its tubular steel frame, Mandello del Lario’s monstrosity hosts a fierce 90-degree V-twin mill, with two valves per cylinder head and a generous displacement of 853cc. At around 7,750 rpm, this wicked piece of air-cooled machinery will be more than happy to supply as much as 80 hp, while a ruthless torque output of up to 59 pound-feet (80 Nm) will be produced at 5,000 rpm.
