    V85TT Alarm Service explained

    The “alarm service” icon that pops up on the v85tt can be due to a myriad of issues like, low oil level, overheating, and spark failure. But it could also simply be due to an apparent program within the computer of the bike that monitors engine performance in order to determine engine oil...

    V85TT Evap and Tip Info

    I did a full canister delete and ran the breather to the ground. As well as the crank vent hose. Both have auxiliary outlets into the intake. Throttle response and power band feels smoother to me, but not a big difference. No issues so far. Bike is at 33k miles.

    Various oil leaks (seeping)

    Sitting at about 12000mi on my v85tt and I’ve noticed a few areas on the engine where oil tends to seep. Sometimes they stop on they’re own and begin in a new place. Nothing of any major concern yet because they are very slow leaks, but some have become more consistent. Particularly on the left...

    Wheel offset and spoke torque specs?

    If you were to lace up a new rim for me, where would you obtain the specs for wheel offset?

    Wheel offset and spoke torque specs?

    I am able to do the repairs myself, it’d just be nice to know the specs. You can usually get away without the torque specs and go by feel and sound. But particularly the wheel offset would be good to know.And I’m sticking with spokes because had my wheels been cast, they would have been...

    Wheel offset and spoke torque specs?

    A while back I hit a log in the road at about 70mph. Which dented my front rim, and threw my rear wheel out of true. Gonna have to adjust my spokes. anyone know where I can find the wheel offset and spoke torque specs on a 19’-20’ v85tt?

    Oil in the clutch housing

    I’ll post pictures when I can, but there is a small amount of oil coming from the lower right hand side of the clutch housing.My last couple of oil changes were a bit rushed, and I didn’t bother to clean all the oil off of the engine before I started riding, and I’m hoping that it’s just a...

    V85TT Evap and Tip Info

    If you cut and plug the line going from the evap to the intake, doesn’t that still leave the evap open? And if you’re gutting the valve, and disconnecting the evap can, why not just gut the whole evap can too?

    V85TT Oil pan seeping leak

    If you’re getting aggressive vibes from my reply I apologize. I had no I’ll intent. I was just explaining why tightening the bolts worked for me. Not trying to discredit your information or experience.

    Check engine light on before start up

    Not referring to the dash start up. The engine light alone stays on until the engine is actually started. This is not part of the start up sequence. And the manual literally says if this light comes on to take it to a dealer. But it’s not in while the bike is running. The manual does not state...

    V85TT Oil pan seeping leak

    I only tightened them because they were literally finger tight and not to spec from the dealer. And that’s what caused the “leak” which was more of a slow seep. No need to purchase extra products here

    V85TT Oil pan seeping leak

    I did the initial oil change and the oil pan bolts were just a bit loose. No issues now.

    Check engine light on before start up

    The owners manual is void of any explanation. As is the case with a lot of modern bikes. They just tell you to take it to a dealer. And if the light were on while running, that’s exactly what I’d do. But it appears to be a normal thing. I’ve noticed it comes on at start up when it’s extremely...

    Check engine light on before start up

    Hello guzzistas, I’m at roughly 1400 miles on my new v85tt and I noticed the check engine light on when I initially turn the key, but once the bike is started, it goes away. Should this be any reason of concern? It’s currently cold for my morning commute in the 30s. the bike runs perfectly...

    V85TT Oil pan seeping leak

    I’m almost 500 miles into my new v85tt and have noticed a small amount of oil escaping the oil pan gasket. I’m sure it’s a simple break in thing, and when I do the first oil change, I’ll re-torque the bolts and that should be sufficient to solve the issue. But I’m just wondering if anyone else...

    Question about opening a v7 gearbox

    Its a 5 speed. And there's nothing in the manuals I've found that provide information on this depth of maintenance. It seems that the output shaft bearing needs to be released from the shaft somehow to let the cover come off. There was a c-clamp that I removed, but no lock nut or anything that I...

    Question about opening a v7 gearbox

    The bike got stuck in first gear, so I decided to dig into the bike and find out what went wrong. I currently have the gearbox out of the bike and on the table, but I cant seem to open it. The gearbox cover moves about an 8th of an inch but still seems to be held on by the output shaft. I have...

    Sensor on the top rear end of gearbox v7

    Mounted in the top of the rear gearbox cover, on my 2023 v7 stone, is a sensor with a single wire. I'm assuming this is the tachometer sensor, but I'm not sure. Can anyone tell me what it is? The guzzi schematics just say "sensor"

    Shifter center return spring

    It appears my beloved v7 has fallen victim to the failure prone shifter center return spring. I've seen other people with the same issue, but no one who has actually done the repair. Anybody have any suggestions as far as special tools, "crabbing the frame" to remove the gearbox, or gaskets or...

    V7 throw out bearing lube/grease?

    Thank you! Everyone's answers have been extremely helpful on here.Is there any kind of breather vent in the clutch case? Or any way to sort of clean it out of dust and debris without actually disassembling the bike?
