2006 Moto Guzzi Griso 1100 Motorcycle reviews

The Moto Guzzi Griso is AWESOME! I love every minute I'm on it...I couldn't be happier with it! While it doesn't have the highest top end speed out there, it delivers huge amounts of usable torque throughout its RPM range. I ride quite a bit in the Great Smoky Mountains, including the portion of US HWY-129 called the Tail of the Dragon, and I can cruise easily in the straights and carve twisties without excessive shifting. The ergonomics are easy on my 46 year worn body, and it's simply a kick-in-the-pant to ride this bike. Plus, it's entertaining to pull up and see the cruiser riders trying to determine what it is. I've even had one rider ask me if it had an airplane engine! Show less

I know I only have a little over 200 miles but I've been riding bikes for some time. I am currently a motorcycle officer for Wilkes-Barre City ('05 BMW F650GS Dualsport). In just the past 5 years I've had a BMW like I ride for work and a Breva 750. I like bikes that fit between cruisers and sport bikes. This one does it perfectly. It's got enough power and handling to stay with the sport bikes through twisting mountain roads and does quite well on the straights too. (My main riding partners have R1's). It also performs great as a cruiser when you just want to take it easy. The riding position is very comfortable and I've had no lower back issues. I love this bike! Show less
