A special edition for the conduct amateur.
Derived from one of the most innovative and daring of all modern models of Moto Guzzi Griso 8V SE SE is a special edition destined to become a classic.
Expressed as the maverick of the Griso bold styling is accentuated by the more sophisticated "Tenni" in a particular shade of pale green color that contrasts beautifully with the many elements of black painted metal as the chassis, wheels, steering plates and the handlebars.
Among the details so this is a real special coating on premium leather seat stitching, attractive spoke wheels and low profile color coordinated labels to identify the vehicle.
Powered by a modern transverse 90 ° V-Twin engine "Quattrovalvole set a maximum power of 110 hp at only 7,500 rpm, the Griso 8V SE SE dominates the road with the silky delivery and commanding presence, welcoming of the addendum to dive can open the chassis to keep all the horses in check incriminating. Thanks to the chassis with dual-head tubular steel and generously sized lateral reinforcement of the lower cradle with the ribs, which is much more than just an aesthetic proposition, but actually designed to give high torsional rigidity to the bike as a whole. The geometry was defined for maximum stability, with a head angle of 26 ° leading a track of 108 mm and a wheelbase of 1544 mm. Nevertheless, the Griso 8V SE SE is surprisingly agile and sincere, rewarding riders with lightning-fast changes of direction.
The correct way to practice Griso 8V SE SE benefit from the low center of gravity and rock steady front, which reduces the offset plates to ensure immediate and precise answers to all the steering wheel. This is a real knife on two wheels also allows the rider to carve the most demanding perfect lines in asphalt.
STYLE
incomparable style.
When the SE Griso 8V, Moto Guzzi, once a majestic sight as you can come up with the concept then develop it without succumbing to technical, traditional or otherwise.
This machine is an instinctive creation, pure, solid as a rock and a personality. It seems to be a simple work of art.
Design details, discreet hollows and unexpected new lines blend satin chrome and metal to form miracles of design. The fuel tank, for example, seems to bend to the power of the massive structure only to form a water droplet aerodynamics of exquisite beauty. The tail does not appear more than once the houses have three units of high-intensity LED light. The Griso is decidedly masculine and powerful, but "quattrovalvole" engine seems like a jewel in a setting that emphasizes its revolutionary design to make the highest. A look at the fins carefully laid in the black cylinder is all that is needed. Were designed to ensure maximum cooling. The rocker covers too draw the eye and, bit by bit, the care and attention given to the creation of this machine are clearly especially when you look at the superb exhaust system.
The incredible two-into-one exhaust system emphasizes the potential of the new Griso 8V SE.
Returning to the reality of performance is evident that the components developed are not only the technical details of style. Take the front end, which would be more comfortable race bike upside-down forks to a large, radial brakes and an interpreter-wave plates. Lines Sport saddle and bodywork complete the picture is the new handlebars that are specifically designed to improve the aerodynamic package is part of the pilot.
Details like this and simple intuition that the Griso 8V a machine to leave an impression even before the rise.
COMFORT
An absolute pleasure.
Just sit astride the Griso 8V to really understand how it would be to mount.
With a new setup between saddle and handlebar-type sport, welcome Griso rider with a fantastic view of the components chrome, satin anodised, displays and commands that leave nothing to the imagination.
Once aboard the Griso, the saddle is only 800 mm of the road, grips the rider yet allows easy change of driving position helped by the kind of support slightly elevated footrest of the race.
The driving position is sporty, where the pilot is not "in", but the engine and feet feel "natural" on the footrest. The rider's body tends to lean toward the handlebars that are now wider and provide a firm grip on the levers.
This position is ideal for precise accurate steering made even better perfectly designed front end geometry and generous tire sizes. The Griso is a hedonist dream and growls of "Quattrovalvole" engine echoes in your ears, even in the most adverse conditions such as city traffic.
SE 8V have conditions like this in your stride and the ease of changing direction and constant load on the front that even such riding pleasure. This does not mean that fashion Mandello naked is not suitable for more aggressive driving. In fact, there are certain times in the total absence of vibrations of the "quattrovalvole" seems lost in the seductive style, excellent finish, smooth control and integrity of the equipment.
He has those moments, when the pilot is fully compatible with the machine when it is in total control of the engine, which can take up to enormous speed or you can just cruise along with masses of torque ever touch. One thing is for sure that just by looking at the speedometer can never understand what the new Griso 8V is all SE.
FRAMEWORK
Beauty in motion
Do not be fooled by the long, low profile you: Griso 8V has handling that would not shame a supersport machine. The secret lies in the steel frame with two upper supports whose design owes little to aesthetics and much to sophisticated engineering concepts that provide exceptional rigidity in times of extreme stress torsion. The tubular steel frame double cradle is connected to an aluminum rear swing arm system houses Carc.
The frame geometry had been carefully calculated to stabilize the steering angle set at 26 ° and rake 108 mm. The wheelbase measures 1,544 mm and the Griso 8V SE is surprisingly agile, despite the lightning fast changes of direction.
These characteristics are due to manipulation of center of gravity and a rock solid leadership seeded offering an immediate response to the pressure on the handlebars. The front is glued to the road with the races reversed fork material. 43 mm fork is adjustable in rebound and compression. A Boge progressive suspension unit is mounted on the rear and it also has three classic settings. The sophisticated suspension ensures a neutral position in the entry and departure angles, the acceleration of 110 horsepower "quattrovalvole" Brembo brakes and engine braking. These brakes are both attractive and very effective with their radial calipers acting on "wave" discs that have been specially designed to provide maximum heat dispersion.
What really counts in the frame is the sum of all the parties and, again, the Griso is beyond compare.
Engine and transmission increased square
Introduced in September 2006, "Quattrovalvole" is the newest and most advanced development of the mythical 90 ° transversal V-twin. Since its debut, has turned heads for its technical content and performance. This is actually the most powerful engine ever made Moto Guzzi, a company can move the new single overhead is 4 valves per cylinder, intake and exhaust valve angle of 15.5 ° and 16.5 ° match.
These sophisticated mechanical unique in the motorcycle world in terms of architecture and engineering clear. Some of the most sophisticated solutions adopted for the system include motor driven timing chain tensioner hydraulic vise pads, forged pistons into 3 segments and is cooled by jets of oil in the crankcase, lightweight valves with 5 mm bar diameter and tapered valve springs that eliminate resonance and power loss at high speed. Lubrication and cooling is supported by two coaxial pumps a train driven by the oil pump through a separate channel in the head to reach the exhaust valve seats, where higher temperatures are generated.
Cylinders, also received a thoroughly modern design with tapered cooling fins to the front of the bike, while the valve cover, with "quattrovalvole" nickname, is a floating system to reduce mechanical noise. For the fuel system, the "quattrovalvole" engine of the application of new Marelli IWP 189 injectors mounted in the throttle body through a respectable measure 50 mm in diameter. The gearbox is a masterpiece of mechanical six-speed with a series of enviable qualities: it is quiet, has a neutral position is clear and easily visible through the introduction of a single disk clutch smoother and quieter.
The sum of all of this innovation is reflected in the engine's vital statistics: an impressive 110 bhp maximum power at 7,500 rpm with maximum torque of 11 kgm at 6400 rpm, gaining share in the twins made Mandello exclusive club of engines powerful air-cooled ever made. Even with a final ratio of 12/44, the engine has enough power to propel the bike beyond 230 km / h.
And while this figure may not seem relevant for use on public roads, there is a clear indicator of the strength of the new Griso 8V SE SE.
