Introducing the 2026 Moto Guzzi V85 TT Travel…

BORN TO TRAVEL

The Moto Guzzi V85 TT Travel is an intrepid explorer that makes no secret of the fact that it’s all about turning every moment in the saddle into a great trip. The standard complete kit makes that very clear, from the protective Touring windshield to the heated seat and handles to the rigid side bags with their generous capacity. A comprehensive electronic and multimedia package not only increases riding safety and pleasure but also underlines the bike’s medium- and long-range voyage credentials. It doesn’t matter how far away the destination, it’s all about the fun getting there.

 

 

 

 

 

 

2026 Moto Guzzi V85 TT Travel Totalmotorcycle.com Key Features

AN ADVENTURE ICON
Combining iconic style, comfort and advanced technology, the understated V85 Strada, the V85 TT original “All-Terrain” and the V85 TT Travel with its soul of a true explorer make up the V85 range.
Three versions, each with their own distinctive character, but all sharing the same capacity to ignite your desire to get going, no matter what your destination.

AUTHENTIC

Genuine appeal
The V85 pairs the potential of modern Adventure bikes with the evocative style that is synonymous with the vehicles built in Mandello del Lario. The V twin-cylinder air-cooled engine and the unmistakable DRLs in the form of an eagle represent Moto Guzzi’s DNA. The adventure continues in a new form, but the V85’s authenticity remains intact.

VERSATILE

Knows no limits
Practical, understated and lightweight, the V85 was born to travel. With a 23-litre fuel tank, 5-setting height-adjustable windshield, Cruise Control and the perfect package of riding modes, you can eat up the miles and go wherever you want. There are plenty more features that ensure the V85 always delivers a smooth, safe ride regardless of the load or type of adventure you’re setting off on.

ONE OF A KIND

A new journey every day
With the V85, the feeling is instant, courtesy of a comprehensive electronics package combined to perfection with the Euro 5+ 850-cc twin-cylinder. Variable valve timing ensures the engine’s power delivery is smooth and full from low speeds right through to its maximum 80 horsepower. The V85 is designed to respond to your every wish for adventure, with a riding experience that is never short of thrilling.

 

Moto Guzzi V85: new graphic variants

  • THE EAGLE BRAND’S TRAVEL ENDURO BIKE IS OFFERED IN THREE DIFFERENT VERSIONS, EACH WITH ITS OWN DISTINCT PERSONALITY: THE V85 STRADA, A PARED-BACK URBAN MODEL; THE V85 TT, A REAL ALL-ROUNDER, AND THE V85 TT TRAVEL, READY FOR ADVENTURE
  • ALL OF THE V85 MODELS RETAIN THEIR AUTHENTIC CHARM, COURTESY OF A STYLE THAT HAS ALREADY BECOME ICONIC; FOR 2026, THIS IS FURTHER EMPHASISED BY A SERIES OF EYE-CATCHING NEW COLOURS

Back in 2019, the Moto Guzzi V85 TT revolutionised a market that was becoming increasingly standardised, creating a new segment which both evokes the style of the golden age of motorcycle adventures and boasts the features and functionality of a modern touring Enduro.

Practical, pared-back and lightweight, the V85 TT was created to thrill even before climbing onto the saddle, and is dedicated to all those who long for a motorcycle that conjures the spirit of adventure, even on everyday journeys.

A winning formula proven by its resounding success with the public and critics, further refined over the years: after the debut of the Travel version in 2020 and the innovations introduced in 2021 – including the exclusive limited-edition Guardia d’Onore – the Moto Guzzi V85 was fully overhauled in 2024, with a new range comprising three models each with a very distinct character: the Moto Guzzi V85 Strada, the Moto Guzzi V85 TT and the Moto Guzzi V85 TT Travel, thus presenting all motorcyclists with a broad variety of options, whatever their destination. For 2026, these three versions come in new colour variants.

COMFORT

Equipped for every situation
The Moto Guzzi V85 TT Travel is always poised to take off, complete with baggage and a passenger, whatever the period of the year.

TECHNOLOGY

Exceptional standard electronic package
The Moto Guzzi V85 TT Travel comes with 6-axis inertial platform with ABS Cornering and Cruise Control. Also included is Moto Guzzi MIA, the multimedia system that connects your smartphone to the bike and extends the instrument panel functions.

Last but not least, Cruise Control lets you set a speed that is activated with a press of a button and then maintained without needing to use the accelerator, leaving you free to focus on your trip.

 

Engine
The engine is the mighty 90° transverse V air-cooled, E5+ 850-cc twin cylinder, with pushrod distribution and rocker arm plus two valves per cylinder.

Moto Guzzi MIA, a multimedia platform that connects your bike to your smartphone, comes as standard on the V85 TT Travel and includes a host of special features that make it easier to manage calls, listen to your playlist, navigate and keep an eye on the vehicle’s various functions.

 

Brakes
The V85 TT’s precise braking comes courtesy of a combination of a Brembo monobloc radial calliper up front and single Ø260-mm disc at the back, meaning you can enjoy every kilometre in absolute safety.

 

Tubeless tyres
Cross-spoked wheels with tubeless tyres set you up to take on a fantastic range of terrains and deliver a grunty riding experience even on the most uneven surfaces.
