Riley Houston:
Hello,
My name is Riley Houston and I'm a 47 year old in Spring, TX and I recently purchased a new to me 2022 V85TT with 2400 miles on the ODO. I've been riding for 31 years and this is my first Italian motorcycle and if all goes well, it won't be my last! Most of the motorcycles I've owned have been Japanese with the majority being Honda. To a lesser extent, I've owned Harley Davidson, Victory, Triumph, and BMW. I'm looking forward to learning a lot from y'all!
Chapulin:
I am Chris, 64, an engineer from Germany. I have owned bikes since I was 15, all makes Moto Guzzi, AWO, BMW, Junak, Ural, Matchless, Honda, Suzuki, Kawasaki etc, drove from Alaska to Argentina on a 700 Maxim, all around Brazil on a Honda 450 etc. After unexpectedly having loads of fun riding across the Philippines on a puny XR150, I have started liking off-roaders and have been dreaming about a Moto Guzzi V 650TT.

Hello, Riley!
Your story is similar to mine, just add 10 years. I've also recently lucked into a nearly new '21 V85 TT Centenario with 3100 miles on the ticker, and I just love it. I think you will too.
Happy trails! The V85 can actually handle them.

Littlefield:
David Littlefield from San Antonio. 73 yrs old retired mechanical engineer. Recently picked up a 2022 V85. I’ve ridden mostly Triumph triples but have always been attracted to the MG brand. Looks like the weather will be warming up here so I’ll be able to get in some riding. A few of us have a trip to Big Bend in early April, get a chance to really check out the comfort. Seems pretty good so far.
