Rider Profile

Best ForSuits riders with at least a couple of years of experience who want a relaxed, torque-friendly V-twin rather than an outright performance machine.
PurposeBuilt primarily for long-distance adventure touring with light off-road capability rather than aggressive trail riding or track use.
Rider FitThe 830mm seat height and 235kg wet weight are manageable for average-height riders but demand reasonable strength and confidence when maneuvering off pavement.
CharacterA charismatic, air-cooled shaft-drive V-twin with classic Moto Guzzi personality, favoring relaxed torque delivery and character over raw speed.
Not Ideal ForNot the right choice for riders seeking sharp sportbike handling, high-speed thrills, or hardcore technical off-road performance.

2019 Moto Guzzi V85 TT Aventure Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 830mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with balls of both feet on the 2019 Moto Guzzi V85 TT Aventure, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 degrees and a slightly forward riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
