Moto Guzzi’s Touring Trio…

We’ve finally got the full lowdown on how much cash you’re going to have to splash to get your hands on one of three new versions of Moto Guzzi’s much-loved middleweight adventure bike.

The Italian firm has kept its cards pretty close to its chest when it comes to its new and updated range of V85 adventure bikes – but now at least we know how much they’re going to cost when they arrive in dealerships later this month.

Progressively better equipped as the price increases, the newly-introduced, £11,200 V85 Strada becomes the cheapest way to get your hands on the Guzzi adventurer. It’s pitched as more of a ‘daily use’ kind of ride; with cast wheels and road-focused rubber, a low-level front mudguard and three riding modes (which each adjust engine map, the level of ABS intervention level, and the traction control). Simple as that.

The ever-popular and slightly more rugged V85 TT will set riders back £12,000. For that you’ll get some spoked wheels, more off-road focused tubeless tyres, and an additional ‘Off-Road’ riding mode. There’s also a some hand guards, an engine guard, a pillion grab rail, and preload adjustment for the rear shock.

The top-of-the-range V85 TT Travel builds on all that – but adds a few extra goodies into the mix for the princely sum of £13,300. As the name suggests, this is the one that’s designed for proper big-mile on- (and off-) road adventure travel. That means you’ve got a pair of hard panniers; Moto Guzzi’s MIA multimedia platform; heated hand grips; a heated seat; and a larger touring screen, too. There’s also another riding mode, so in addition to Road, Sport, Rain and Off-Road, you’ve also got a Custom one to play with.

We’re big fans of the V85 range and have actually snagged an invite to ride them on the launch. If you want the full lowdown, keep an eye on the MoreBikes website for our first impressions – before the more in-depth review goes live in Motorcycle Sport and Leisure magazine very soon.
