Title: Down payment on a new V85TT Travel
Post by: lather on August 14, 2026, 06:21:59 PM: Trading in my Multistrada. Waiting for centerstand to arrive. I think that is the only thing the V85TT Travel is lacking.

You are in for a very pleasant surprise.

Enjoy the new ride :thumb:

I usually change widscreens, Puig is my favorite. On other bikes I have had seats by Corbin, Sargent and Seth Laam. The OEM seat on my Tracer 9GT is ok. Looking forward to the V85.
