The power of the eagle. The Griso 8 V is the outcome of some
of the most challenging work carried out by Moto Guzzi for its new generation
machines. With its graceful lines, the Griso 8 V has opened the way to a new,
absolute sense of “sports” that is created by the power and technology of the
innovative engine.
Although designed along traditional lines, the new engine is a
celebration of the logic behind the 90 degree V concept. It features a single
overhead camshaft that operates the four valves on each cylinder with noiseless
timing chains. This is quite an evolution to the already tuned 1200 cc engine
that now puts out 110 CV at 9,500 rpm with maximum torque of 11 kgm.
The power delivery is silky smooth and on the open road the
bike’s true sports character shines along with the countless technical
innovations and the new sense of style. Although the exclusive exhaust system
with twin coiled pipes has been seen before, it now truly reflects the greater
power of these machines.
From the looks point of view, the Griso 8 V has undergone
customizing that includes particular stylistic details like the new saddle and
streamlined side panels as well as equipment levels of the highest possible
level. Even the most discerning of palates will appreciate the front end with
its Brembo P4/34 radial caliper brakes that act on wave floating discs measuring
320mm. They will also be able to count on Showa upside-down forks that have had
43 layers of carbon nitride treatment.
Sitting astride the bike, the rider can immediately sense the
sports riding position that the new setup between handlebars, saddle and
footpegs provides. These are all new components and were specially designed to
make the rider feel completely in control. The two-seater saddle creates a
wonderful backwards view and there seems to be a tail like on a single seater.
In fact there is in fact more than enough room for a passenger to sit in great
comfort.
Powerful, elegant and exclusive, the Griso 8V will beyond
doubt become a cult item among true enthusiasts of elite motorbikes.
