2013 Moto Guzzi Griso 1200 8V SE Review

THE MOTO GUZZI SPECIAL EDITION WILL BECOME A COLLECTORS ITEM....

Griso 8V SE has impeccable style; this machine is an instinctive creation, pure, solid and distinctive and in many ways a work of art.

2013 Moto Guzzi V7 Stone motorcycle photos 1The design details are discreet but elegant and pure quality; the lines blend together and are accentuated by the chrome finishing and satin metal form.  The fuel tank lends itself superbly to the strong frame creating an aerodynamic teardrop body which is continued through to the tail which houses three high intensity LED light units.

The Griso is decidedly masculine and powerful yet the “Quattrovalvole” engine seems to be set like a jewel in a frame that shows off its revolutionary design to the utmost effect.  Returning to the performance, it becomes obvious that the sophisticated components are not mere technical details included for the sake of style but enhances performance and provides guaranteed reactivity.

The Moto Guzzi Griso SE features the latest transverse 90° V-twin from the “Quattrovalvole” series and produces a peak power of 110 hp at just 7500 rpm with a whopping 108Nm of torque at 6400 rpm allowing the Griso SE to dominate the road with a smooth power delivery whilst the outstanding chassis keeps all those horses in check. The chassis is comprised of a twin overhead tubular element made from high tensile steel and generously sized lateral reinforcement of the lower cradle with ribbing that has been added not only for aesthetic purposes but also for increased rigidity.

The stylish black and silver livery contrasts elegantly with the black metal of the frame which also ties in the black rims, steering plates and handlebars. It also boasts chrome spoke wheels and colour coordinated badges. The incredible two-into-one exhaust system highlights the Griso SE’s boldness and further ads to the character of this unique motorcycle. Its details like this that leave
an impression before you even ride the Moto Guzzi Griso 8V SE.

2013 Moto Guzzi Griso 1200 8V SE Features and Benefits

The Griso 8V SE might well be one of the most unique and captivating motorcycles to come out of the Mandello Del Lario factory. The bold character expressed in the nonconformist styling of the Griso is given further emphasis by the aggressive new black/silver color concept in a matte tone that flows elegantly with the numerous black painted metal elements such as the frame, wheels, steering plates, handlebar and instrument panel covers.

The Bike
“His power became greater in reality and in the minds of others.” This is a description of ‘Griso’, a character in ‘I promessi sposi’ by Alessandro Manzoni, one of the most famous works of Italian literature. In the book, Griso is a tough and fearless leader of the Bravi, and a man “who naturally undertook all the most daring enterprises”.

2013 Moto Guzzi V7 Stone motorcycle photos 3This description could just as well be applied to the new Griso 8V SE, the most exciting and spirited of all Moto Guzzi models, designed to create a new, more intense concept of sports riding based on sheer power and four valve cylinder technology. Designed to respect a tradition that has lasted forty years, the new engine adopts the rational 90° transverse V twin layout but with 563 new parts, and introduces for the first time a single overhead cam valve timing and silent running Morse chains to operate the four valves per cylinder. 75% of this highly developed Moto Guzzi 1200cc engine has been modified compared to its predecessor, to produce 110 HP at only 7500 rpm and a maximum foot pounds of 80 foot pounds at 6400 rpm.
