Title: 1984 Moto Guzzi 850T5 - $5000 (Lebanon Tn)
Post by: Craig in Alabama on May 12, 2019, 01:35:40 PM

Hi Folks,

Not my bike, but it looks pretty nice. Lebanon is in north TN about an hour or so east of Nashville.

Interesting bike! I have never seen one of those before, very similar to a Mille. :thumb:

T5's were cop-sickles in Italy and possibly in other nations as well ( Paraguay ?). Blue bits as well as complete bikes appear on EBay from time to time. With the 844cc displacement they ought to be pretty smooth motors.

Might be a little high priced but a cool bike.

Chop off the front end and the Mille and 850T5 I believe are identical except for engine size. My Mille came with an 850 manual.

Anyone notice the Craven saddlebags? Very cool pieces...

T5 has 16" inch wheels, making for a great bike for the short of inseam. A woman I know at 5' and barely anymore inches rides one
