    V85TT Registry and pic thread

    There's not many of these left as working call boxes. Most now house defibrillators or have become community book exchanges

    V85TT Registry and pic thread

    For those of you outside of the British Isles, these emergency telephone boxes were situated about the countryside to enable AA (Automobile Association) members to call the organisation for assistance in the event of breakdown. Each member was issued a key and could also be used in a rival...

    V85TT Registry and pic thread

    Seeing that old AA Telephone box in your photo reminded me of this one I found recently outside the legion Cross Pub in the village of Eardisland, Herefordshire. It's reputedly the oldest surviving box in Britain.

    In Search of the Best Pannier Liner Bag: Seeking Suggestions in the UK

    I have a V85tt with the urban panniers. I use the SW Motech bags that came with the original metal Guzzi panniers on my 2009 Stelvio. They also would fit the OE panniers on my Yamaha XTZ1200 Super Tenere. My wife and I also often use them as walk on luggage when flying. Rather versatile I would say.

    V85TT Mods Thread

    I've just fitted a Power Bronze touring screen to replace the OE short screen. I run with the new screen set at maximum height, no buffeting, but the wind does catch the very top of my helmet. I'm 6ft with a 31 inside leg, so shortish legs and longish body. If I have the screen lower it causes...

    I finally got back to Moto Guzzi three weeks ago with my new V85tt. Now covered 750 miles, so first service is due soon. I'm so loving this bike.

    U.K. - North West

    I will be back in the Moto Guzzi fold on 6th July, that's when my new V85tt is being delivered. I've had a break from Guzzi since 2014 when I chopped in my Stelvio for a Yamaha XTZ1200. I often enjoy a run up to the Forest Of Bowland. Nice little cafe at Slaidburn. I'm usually out and about on...

    V7 850 handlebar risers

    I'm seriously considering coming back into the Moto Guzzi family, I sold my last Guzzi, a Stelvio in 2014. I'm very interested in both the V9 Bobber and the 850 V7. I've had a couple of test rides on the V7 but find the bars a bit too low, does anyone know if 20mm risers will work OK without...

    Stelvio Spotlamp Bulb

    The right side spotlamp bulb has failed. These are the standard (Hella?) lamps fitted on the engine crash bars. I'm unable to find a spec for this bulb, cant find it in the owners manual. Can anyone shed some light on this (pun intended) Thanks Alan.

    Made my own Stelvio center stand!

    Hi Jon, the roads around Stockport look very rough these days. I suppose it's due to those government cutbacks:D

    I agree the Hull route does save an awful journey down south. I've often used the route to Zeebrugge and found the ships comfortable, and the food quite palatable.

    New tires for my 2009 Stelvio HELP!

    I am currently using Dunlop TR91 Trailmax. I have found them to grip well in all on roadconditions, but mileage is about 5k when I change them. They were ok on easy trails in the Dolomite mountains. I haven't been too impressed with the OE Pirellis, they're ok but didn't instil confidence as...

    Yes, I went to the one in South Wales last year, it was very good. They were a friendly crowd from all over the UK and Europe. I met some of the guys from this forum.

    Stelvio big hole in the midrange at about 4k rpm

    Didn't the early Stelvios have a pronounced power step at about 5000rpm, which could make the bike feel a bit flat lower down the rev range ( something to do with having a Griso engine originally?) I thought that as from about 2010 the cam profile and fuelling were altered to give a more linear...
