All models in the new Moto Guzzi V85 range are powered by the unmistakable air-cooled, 90° transverse V-twin engine with two-valve per cylinder rocker and rod timing system, the pride and tradition of the Eagle of Mandello.

An 853 cc engine, following the construction scheme of all contemporary Moto Guzzi engines, was initially introduced in the first version of the V85 TT with elements of excellence, including the timing system with roller tappets and aluminium rocker arms, along with 42.5 mm intake valves made of titanium.

On the new Moto Guzzi V85 range, the engine complies with the new Euro 5+ emissions regulations and has undergone significant work to increase power and improve throttle response - and therefore torque figures - at low revs. This was achieved thanks to the adoption of variable valve timing, a technical solution that optimises valve lift laws depending on engine speeds.

A centrifuge mechanism is located on the camshaft, made with six spheres on inclined tracks which rotate the shaft starting from 6500 rpm up to a maximum value of 7° cam (14° engine) at 7000 rpm. In the fully open position, the camshaft’s advanced timing favours filling at high engine revs, allowing maximum power to be achieved. A specific timing sensor continuously monitors the position of the variator, allowing for optimum engine parameter management.

The increase in torque becomes noticeable as early as 3000 rpm and extends across the entire torque curve. By 3500 rpm, 90% of the maximum torque, equivalent to 83 Nm at 5100 rpm is available. This further enhances road riding pleasure and improves throttle response, offering greater flexibility in low revs and high gears. Furthermore, the maximum power sees an increase, leaping from 76 hp at 7,500 rpm in the previous generation to 80 hp at 7,750 rpm.

Another improvement involves the incorporation of knock sensors, which supply essential data to the engine management ECU, enabling more precise and accurate adjustment of ignition timing. This results in a range of benefits: higher performance combined with improved riding comfort and reliability.

The exhaust system has also been optimised to make the torque output smoother, and a third lambda sensor has been added for the new functions required by the Euro 5+ standard.

Sitting on the motorcycle, the rider benefits from a completely redesigned instrument panel: the new, larger 5-inch TFT colour display allows better visualisation of all trip parameters. The handlebar switches are also new, having also undergone an overhaul, with both electric switch-cubes redesigned to provide more straightforward and intuitive access to all functions, including cruise control.
