Hey KZfaqrs! In this video I take my V85TT for a ride down to the New Forest in southern UK and make some observations about riding it with a pillion aboard, how to fix high speed air turbulence, and advice about witchcraft....... Enjoy!

Below is a link to the wind deflectors I printed and fitted - which have made a huge difference to the turbulence at motorway speeds. Find a friend with a 3D printer and get some made:

I agree with your positive pillion assessment. My passenger is very happy with it. For even more comfort, I add a gel pad for her on long trips. I purchased the Guzzi comfort seat and find it is more comfortable for long distance riding. Btw, the top speed for my 2023 V85TT (stock) on a flat road with a slight headwind is 105 mph (true gps speed). It is nice to know that cruising at 75 mph does not tax the engine.

So far things seem good with the standard seat, but that's a useful tip ref the gel pad. I'd go with your assessment of top speed / cruising too - that matches my experience.
