Yep that's pretty naked alright. Lately I've been envisioning a GRiSO 1200 Scrambler. You know, sump and oil cooler guard, suspension upgrade, modified front and rear fenders, knobby tires and such.

Hmmm, having given Black Betty the berries in the dirt some years ago (Mr Bob might remember me getting it sideways and loving it on the road to/from Goat Rock - I used to ride short circuit some years back), I can see how the engine would do such a thing quite admirably. Not sure the GRiSO is the right starting point though.

I get it, but I don't know whether to laugh or cry!

Putting your foot down on corners, well that's for wimps - full feet up sliding for me Crying or Very sad

Mmmn, Does it come with a box of rocker covers??

No but it could sport Ron's new/improved crash guards...

Sadly not the first GRiSO violated by hillbillies. I can hear the dueling banjos from here!

Charlotte? A better moniker would have been Crap Suzette...

Might you be better off starting with a Stelvio? V7 Scrambler would be cheaper than either I recon...

Yeah, definitely lighter, but also much less torque and power.

I like the seat/tail unit and suspect Ron is eye balling it closely.
Header pipes down the guts could create problems ........................ total loss?
Right rocker already has damage.
Spacer in swingarm to accommodate 19" wheel.

The only good bit I see here is that the exhaust must really be cooking their nuts so they can't reproduce. cheers

I wouldn't want to have to stop a GRiSO only using the back brake!

GRiSO Capo Posts : 10670 Join date : 2013-05-29 Age : 67

I think that anyone who thinks 'Motorcycles' can be *Designed* as 'Art' should be taken out the back for a good kicking and then given a kale and chilli enema.

Form should follow function. Not the other way round. No brakes, spindly forks and a weird, impractical, (Not to mention uncomfortable!) exhaust system do not a motorcycle, (Not even a bad one!) make!

I not only fart at them but I don the giraffe leggings and tap-dance on the idiocy of their imbecilic pretensions!

This is the same useless mob who produced that bladder emptyingly awful 'Post Apocalypse' V7 turd that was widely shown a few months ago. I recognise the weird selection of non-tools and unrecyclable, broken munt hanging on the wall, (Presumably as some sort of irrelevant 'Statement' as to the nature of the life of the 'Working Man'! Bletch!) behind this chatechism of irredeemable awfulness!

Being stabbed in the groin with a pair of garden secateurs coated with anthrax spores is far too good for these people!

Would them be rusty secateurs?

From the few moments of actual riding in the vid, looks like the front end would wash out the moment you went serious.
