Moto Guzzi Launches Pre-Order Website For 2019 V85 TT

Be among the first to take ownership of the all-new Guzzi Adventure Bike.

Published on 01.22.2019

Want to be one of the first to own the 2019 Moto Guzzi V85 TT? After unveiling the new machine at the IMS Show in Long Beach, California, and continued interest throughout winter tradeshows, the Italian marquee has launched a website, allowing those who pre-order to be first among recipients when it arrives later this year.

The all-new Moto Guzzi adventure bike will be available in two versions, V85 TT, and V85 TT Adventure, with a selection of evocative colors and accessory options. To pre-order, a deposit of $2,000 is required which also gives you a $250 accessory credit.

The V85 TT introduces a new Moto Guzzi engine. Its configuration mirrors that of all Moto Guzzi bikes in production today: an air-cooled transverse 90° V twin with an OHV configuration and two valves per cylinder. Engine capacity is 853cc and boasts an output ratio of almost 100 HP/liter while delivering 80 HP and 59 ft-lbs of torque at 5,000 rpm, with 90% of the torque already available at 3,750 rpm. This is the first Moto Guzzi small block engine that can easily reach 8,000 rpm.

This retro-styled Adventure bike may be a rolling piece of artwork but it comes equipped with an array of technology features such as Riding Modes (Road, Rain, Offroad), TFT display, cruise control and the Moto Guzzi Multimedia platform (up-close look at the all-new Moto Guzzi V85 TT here)

There’s plenty of distinctive styling features to look at as well, from the cutouts in the back of the front fender to keep air flowing to the motor, to the chrome-rimmed round headlights, the unique side-mounted mono shock, “flying Wing” daytime running light mounted between the headlights, and more. It’s a balanced blend of old-school styling in a modern, functional package.

Slick looking bike, always liked the uniqueness of the MG. Just don’t know about an adventure bike, those cylinders are going to take a beating when it goes down. Any kind of crash bar is going to make it super wide.

Can’t be as wide as the 1200 GSA that I’d had, nor as heavy.
Great looking bike.
Bars and the cylinders are less expensive to replace than flesh, if you go down with a leg leg under the bike!

You got a point, I forgot about the “Boxer” klan.

What a beauty! Probably a bit more for asphalt adventure than for hill climbs, but there’s a big market for that ADV rider.

How is this a new engine? MG produces a Roamer model with an 850cc motor, just like this one. So, what’s new about this engine?

OK, thanks for the link. It’s def. a nice cycle. That weight, though. That’s very close to the weight of a 1200 cc Yamaha Super Tenere shaftie. I will say the folks on the MG forums should be happy. They were looking for an 850 *anything* that had more than 55 HP. Now they’ve got it.

This engine is very much changed from the Roamer engine.
