Hi all, I purchased my 12 GRiSO last Sept after a long time of admiring them from afar..Ive had all the Japanese bikes and really wanted something different this time.. Ive put only about 5k miles on it so far because I use it as my fun bike and use my 1250 Bandit as my commuter bike (pushing 60k)..Im amazed at all the comments I get with this bike, there almost isnt a time I take it out that someone doesnt come over and want to know about it or wonder what the the hell it is..I went to a local Harley dealer with a friend and people from the service department came out to look at it and some had never even heard of Guzzi, how funny is that?

Welcome to the ghetto Jim. Between you and Railroad Bob I foresee the makings of a San Diego/North County cabal forming...

Yeah, the GRiSO is a special bike and always draws a crowd, AND they're fun as hell to ride! And all of this culminates with the Diavolo Nero, the acme of GRiSOdom!!! affraid

Next time you're out on a ride, snap some photos, park it next to a bevy of beach bound bikini babes first though.

So, I have a few graphics schemes in mind for my bike and wondered what the story is behind the little Diavolo icon and the neat looking GRiSO silhouette. If anybody has a little intel and vector file or two...I have some nice guzzi logo vectors I could share.

That's a bummer. Moto accident???

Our good friend Greg dumped his V11 in his alleyway as we were leaving for Deep Forest a couple of weeks ago. Broke his fibula in two places, no weight bearing for six weeks and then six more weeks in a boot or a cast. Nice summer...

Yikes! Ouch! Hadn't heard about Greg's mishap. Sure glad he's employed, hopefully with good health insurance!

I've been out of touch - touring in our little RV in the Sierra - sorry to hear the news.
