New GRiSO owner in Cleveland

After drooling over the GRiSO since the introduction of the 8v, I finally decided to make the purchase when I heard they were getting cancelled. I knew I wanted a new one and it was my last chance, so I picked up a brand new 2015 GRiSO this January. It was a leftover of their 2016 stock, but this dealership does not put gas or a battery in any of their bikes until someone purchases it, so I did not feel uncomfortable with buying such an old "new" bike.

I'm about 1,000 miles into it, and loving it at the moment. Likely not going to do any performance modifications to it any time soon, as I am perfectly happy with it's get up and go. It's a lot quicker than my old bike, a 77 Honda CB750. Strangely enough though, it does have almost the same exact weight, riding position, length and width as my old honda so it was a natural transition.

Looking forward to many a good year though with my new Guzzi. I've been dreaming about it for so long, and it has lived up to expectations and then some.

Welcome to the Ghetto! I bought my GRiSO in Ohio earlier this year.

Labor Day weekend there is a Guzzi Rally in Zanesville if you're interested. There are many great roads around there & some characters will be attending

Unless my kitchen pass gets revoked I'll be there proudly showing off my GRiSO
