My baby is FINALLY making it into production.

Moto Guzzi Griso
http://www.infomotori.com/a_75_IT_12532_1.html

Arriva in marzo
Cari amici “guzzisti” l’attesa per questo modello è praticamente finita. Giusto il tempo di fare il pre-ordine: le prime Griso, infatti, arriveranno in concessionaria nella primavera del 2005.

"Arriving in March - Dear friends "Guzzisti" the wait for this model is practically over. Indeed its the time for pre-ordering: The first Griso, in fact, arrives in stores spring 2005"

OH YEAH. I almost gave up hope ... it will be between this and the street rod, I think. The MT-01 WAS on my list, but since that bunch of Idiots at Yamaha aren't making a US Version I'm not going to even bother. Streetrod's got more grunt, but my heart belongs to the Italians... Test rides on the Horizon.

More Details from the article.
90* Transverse V
dual-spark 1069cc
90 hp
64 ft-lbs
2 front disk, 4-pot calipers
1 rear disk, 2-pot

It's about time they brought that bike to market. You'd think Guzzi was scared to sell bikes, and this thing will sell. Sweet machine.

At least it's better looking than those Fugly things BMW spit out!

HEY! My bike resembles that remark.

The Griso is awesome looking, the Breva is a wonderfull everyday bike, and the Norge 1200 looks like it will be great sport-touring bike. Moto Guzzi is definately going in the right direction. Now, I wish they would just trash-can all those other models moving forward.

The Griso is welcome in my garage any time.

Definitely hot. At $13,490 though, it is too much for me. Beautiful bike though, if I wasn't so cheap (read: poor), I might be tempted to look into one.

It is nice to see a good looking standard on the market. They list it under supersport on their website though?? Are they just doing that because they dont think Americans will buy it unless it is a "super sport"? It definitely looks like a standard riding position, and it has less horsepower and the same torque as their Breva 1100, which is in the Standard catagory... I fail to see how it got into super sport.
