ScuRoo Posted November 9, 2018 Author Share Posted November 9, 2018 Well well, what’s the world coming to... recently found out BMW’s newly released F850GS engine is made in China by Loncin! BMW used to promote it’s products (& pride itself) as having built in undeniable Bavarian quality - I think they might have blotted their brand image on this one... perceptions do matter! I mean, the Chinese people don’t even trust buying baby food if it’s made in China. But I digress. Anyhow, here’s the latest V85 TT release with a rider... And Thomas, they’ve confirmed the 80 hp. Moto Guzzi back in the game? Absolutely! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tennmoto Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Funny that the people who worry most about the horsepower figures are the same ones that say they don't care about the horsepower figures. Who cares? How fast do you wanna go anyway? The V85 will never compete with the GS, and Piaggio decided that they would never win against the "bench adventuring" crowd. So, they didn't bother. They built a simpler bike with a lot of flair and that great pushrod engine. If it turns out to not be a total POS, I will buy one. I might get one even then.... It's just what I want: an urban crossover bike with moderate off-road capabilities. They will sell more of these than those lame Roamers, that's for sure. Yup totally agree, and with that first multi colored version that’s been circulating, has been getting a lot of interestAnd that press gets people into the dealer. So the V7lll and V85 might just help the surviving dealers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

footgoose Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 nice, thanks. price tag? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbolesaz Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Didn't write anything down or get a pix of a sticker, so this is highly suspect info. But I vaguely remember 12-13K being mentioned, which is WAY cheaper than a Beemer or Triumph equivalent. Oh, and in dealers by March. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
