The Moto Guzzi V 65TT is a trail bike that defies expectations. Built around a 90-degree V-twin engine, this longitudinally-mounted powerplant delivers a unique character that’s both modern and distinctive. With a 2-valve per cylinder, OHV configuration, the Guzzi’s engine provides a smooth and responsive ride. On the road, the V 65TT handles with surprising agility, its long wheelbase seeming to shrink in the hands of the rider. The bike’s leanness and compactness make it a standout in its class, outshining even the venerable BMW R80 in terms of handling and poise. With dead neutral steering and grippy Pirelli trail tyres, the V 65TT is a bike that’s impossible to put a foot wrong on. In short, the Moto Guzzi V 65TT is a trail bike that’s as competent as it is charming.
