De Moto Guzzi V85 TT werd in 2019 geïntroduceerd als een moderne avontuurlijke toermotorfiets, gebouwd rond een nieuw ontwikkelde 853cc luchtgekoelde V-twin-motor, waarmee Guzzi's klassieke transversale V-twin-karakter nieuw leven werd ingeblazen in een eigentijds pakket. Het is ontworpen om retrostijl te combineren met praktische avontuurlijke mogelijkheden, gericht op rijders die naast toerfunctionaliteit ook karakter en erfgoed wilden. De V85 TT werd goed ontvangen vanwege zijn opvallende uiterlijk, soepele vermogensafgifte en beheersbare ergonomie, waardoor Moto Guzzi relevant blijft in het groeiende middelgrote avonturensegment.

Wat kopers moeten weten
Transverse V-Twin Character
The 853cc air/oil-cooled transverse V-twin is a proven, relatively simple engine design that's generally considered reliable with proper maintenance. Its exposed cylinders give it iconic Guzzi styling while also aiding cooling.
Watch the Throttle Bodies
Early V85 TT models had reported issues with throttle body synchronization and occasional fueling glitches, sometimes causing rough idle or hesitation. Ensure any used example has had software updates applied via a Moto Guzzi dealer.
Strong Resale Retention
The V85 TT holds its value reasonably well compared to competitors thanks to its niche retro-adventure appeal and the Moto Guzzi brand cachet. Limited production volumes help prevent the market from being flooded with used examples.

Beoordeling van gebruikte kopers
"A flawed but deeply lovable adventure bike for patient enthusiasts."
$8,500-$11,500 usedThe V85 TT is genuinely charming in a way that's hard to quantify on a spec sheet. That transverse V-twin pulls from low down with real character — it burbles, vibrates just enough to feel alive, and rewards lazy throttle work on winding B-roads. It's not fast by modern standards, but it's deeply enjoyable in a way that stats don't capture. Budget for a dealer service if you're buying blind — Guzzi dealers aren't everywhere, and that matters. Used examples vary wildly in condition. Early bikes had minor electrical gremlins and the bevel box needs regular oil checks — neglect it and you're looking at expensive repairs. Look for full service history and check the throttle bodies have been balanced. Wind protection is mediocre despite the screen, and the stock seat turns punishing around 150 miles. Neither issue is a dealbreaker, but budget for aftermarket fixes. For the right rider this is deeply rewarding ownership. Just go in with realistic expectations about Italian quirkiness.
