    Thanks for the tip.
    Heating clothing is expensive, but well worth it, i got the socks, jacket and gloves.
    Absolute game changer, i have been out on the coldest of days, and came home without needing to stand beside a heater to thaw out.
    Really enjoy your posts.
    Keep her lit 👌👌👍

      I found that setting off in the first place is a much better prospect knowing you're not going to freeze in ten minutes time.

    Quick story about our biking community in 2016 I had an accident on my bike ...not my fault but it didn't hurt any less !..after I came out of hostpital...remembering I am involved with different organisations I expected to see a couple of folk come round and check how I was .....nope not one .....a couple of days after I was out a gang of motorcyclists turned up 2 of whom I hadn't seen in 30 years ! ....so there we are .....old bikers just are the best people .....since you have told people how good those little Breva s are they have all sold that were on ebay 😀 ...

      I hope your incident wasn't too bad but what a warming story. I'm not sure I have any influence over the sales of the Breva. Old bikers are brilliant and they are bringing on younger enthusiastic folks who are realizing that it's more than just transport

    Had exactly that socket fitted to my Aprilia, make sure you put it somewhere it won't get wet. My handlebar mounted one gave up very inconveniently in heavy rain somewhere in Austria last summer!😂

    I was thinking about getting a heated jacket, I drive a dodge ram 3500 and Diesel isn't cheap, so I have to get my Guzzi back together, last year I rode my son's Honda shadow all season and a l rode in below 30°F don't know what that would be in Celsius, but either way it's really cold . LoL

      Don't think about it just get one, I'm delighted with how well they work.

    USB's should carry lots of Volts & Watts (good luck w/ $10 quid tho!) Heck, I'd put 2 or 3 on (hardwired w/ 8 gadgets wire. While there, I may want to rewire the starter with more Amp carrying capacity... It's a Guzzi thing. Not wrong, but- sooner or later- it'll slow down starts, etc.. boy in the bubble.

    Hello, first of all thank you for the videos on your channel, they are very interesting.
    I am interested in the Guzzi V85 TT, it would be the first Guzzi that I would have in my possession and I have doubts.
    Is it a reliable bike? Is maintenance easy? I've had the chance to test drive one unit and I really liked it, but I've always had Hondas and I've been very happy with them.
    I'm looking for advice from a knowledgeable person like you.
    Thank you very much and greetings from Barcelona-Spain.

      I have had Guzzis for quite awhile and have found them to be both reliable and easy to look after. Anyone who can read a manual can service and maintain a V85. Obviously with the right tools and some aptitude will make it easier

      Greetings, I've recently purchased a 2022 V85tt. The "manual " that came with the bike is lacking of much pertinent information. Can you direct me to a source (s) for a manual or blog, etc. I like to do the normal "servicing " myself. Thank you! Twowheeler
