Moto Guzzi V85 TT Travel, an adventurous bike with strong heritage and authentic character

S

ensing the enthusiasm of Indonesian motorcycle fans with an adventurous spirit, PT Piaggio Indonesia has introduced the Moto Guzzi V85 TT Travel, the first and only enduro classic motorcycle on the market.

The Moto Guzzi V85 TT (Tutti Terrain/All Terrain) was first introduced in 2018 and has since received attention and recognition from various media outlets and well-known motorists worldwide for its unique and sleek retro design that pays homage to the simple yet stunning design from the 1980s.

The century-old Moto Guzzi, a motorcycle brand symbolizing the elegant and aspirational Italian lifestyle with a history rich in stories and achievements, caters to every rider's desires and needs, particularly those with an adventurous spirit.

Moto Guzzi is entirely dedicated to two-wheeler enthusiasts who appreciate and understand charming Italian design, rich history and relevant technology, as well as admire the essential details of what premium quality means.

Every Moto Guzzi motorcycle is designed, engineered and manufactured directly in Mandello, Italy, to ensure the perfect combination of Italian style, the finest craftsmanship and the performance of the latest technologies, which have been evolving since 1921.

The Moto Guzzi V85 TT model line is designed for adventurous driving, including on tougher and more challenging terrains, making the new Moto Guzzi V85 TT Travel the perfect upgrade and partner for riders determined to find new destinations.

As a rugged and practical maxi enduro type, the V85 TT Travel offers unlimited travel and exploration in navigating various terrain conditions. It is able to withstand various challenging environments yet offers ease of driving.

The new Moto Guzzi V85 TT Travel provides aesthetic satisfaction thanks to a stunningly attractive retro-modern appearance, harkening back to the Paris-Dakar desert races in the 1980s with the Sabbia Namib paint color. It features a higher windshield for better protection against the wind, while a black subframe gives the V85 TT Travel a hint of aggressiveness in combination with the adventurer-esque side bags.

One of the most prominent features of Moto Guzzi is the legendary placement of the V engine at a 90 degree angle, which is also present in the V85 TT Travel. The Euro 5-rated 850cc engine provides precise power delivery and higher torque, ensuring both comfort and high performance.

The V85 TT Travel features five distinct ride settings (on-road, rain, off-road, sport and custom), a smoother gearbox, improved brakes and suspensions, full LED lamps with daytime running lights and tubeless tires for extreme conditions for the convenience of riders, both beginners and experienced, who are constantly looking for a sense of freedom and adventure.

The Moto Guzzi V85 TT Travel, alongside other Moto Guzzi motorcycles, can be experienced at the Motoplex Dealership, which serves all four brands from PT Piaggio Indonesia. The dealership offers a premium, consumer-centric and holistic experience that not only presents the excellence of a reliable product line and workshop, but also ensures that visitors can find original spare parts as well as accessories and merchandise to suit their individual lifestyle.

"PT Piaggio Indonesia understands the increasing demand for motorbikes that are truly associated with a rich history, renewable technology and carrying a premium lifestyle. We are proud to present a selection from the latest line of Moto Guzzi dedicated to riders who are looking for a driving experience characterized by confidence, elegance, performance and a premium lifestyle,” said PT Piaggio Indonesia President Director Marco Noto La Diega.

Noting that the Indonesian market is in tune with technology and history, Noto La Diega said the company aimed to contribute to its development and enthusiasm.

"As our steps have been supported by a solid Premiumization Roadmap Strategy, it is important for us to be at the forefront of the industry with the latest premium products through our core four brands – Piaggio, Vespa, Aprilia and Moto Guzzi – available at the exclusive Motoplex Dealership, which are further enriched with the newest models from Aprilia and Moto Guzzi in Indonesia," he concluded.
