Understated elegance
The V85 Strada makes a statement with its minimal design and lack of superstructure that is built for practicality, but also ensures a bold, distinctive look.
The fuel tank is sculpted around the classic E5+ twin-cylinder with variable timing, and the DRLs outline an eagle silhouette. The back end is tapered while the front area is defined by a low mudguard.

No matter how long or short your trip or where you’re you going, every outing is the perfect chance to turn the key and take off. You’ll be in good hands with the 5” TFT control panel that makes it a breeze to manage the three riding modes with Sport, Road and Rain settings offering the optimal solution for any conditions. There’s also a practical USB socket that comes as standard kit, and a host of accessories to choose from for a truly complete riding experience on your V85 Strada.
Ready for adventure on the road
With its agility, practicality and safety levels, the Moto Guzzi V85 Strada could be called the “practical machine”. Its comfortable adventure bike riding position and the precision of aluminum alloy rims with road tread tires will ensure you immediately feel at ease.

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 its own distinctive character, but all sharing the same capacity to ignite your desire to get going, no matter what your destination.
Genuine appeal
The V85 pairs the potential of modern Adventure bikes with the evocative style that is synonymous with the vehicles built at 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.
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 kilometres 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 towards.
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.
High-tech instrument panel
The bike comes with a host of features designed to ensure a safer and more enjoyable riding experience, including the easy-to-read, user-friendly 5” TFT color instrument panel, full-LED lighting everywhere for improved visibility on the road and at night, and three riding modes as standard. What’s more, Cruise Control lets you set a speed that is activated with a click of a button and then maintained without needing to use the accelerator, leaving you free to focus on your trip.
Brakes
The V85 Strada’s precise braking comes courtesy of a combination of a Brembo monobloc radial calliper up front and single Ø260-mm disc at the back, making for a winning formula on those adventures through the urban jungle, punctuated by pauses and restarts.
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. Variable timing offers gutsy torque, even at low speeds (90% of torque available at 3500 rpm) and max power of 80 horsepower at 7750 rpm. Ride-by-Wire accelerator control delivers impeccable feeling every time.
Shaft drive
Robust, reliable and incredibly smooth: the Moto Guzzi V85 Strada shaft drive transfers every ounce of horsepower to the rear wheel with precision, all requiring no chain lubrication or adjustments. Minimal maintenance, maximum riding freedom.
Tyres
The V85 Strada is fitted with lightweight aluminum rims covered with road profile tires, meaning improved agility and responsiveness, especially on asphalt. The low mudguard is another feature that makes the V85 Strada a practical choice on urban roads.
