First GRiSO

Hi all. My first GRiSO, though was one of the options when I bought the V7 Racer that I've now traded in for this beauty.

So glad I finally decided to go for one Smile

From the paint scheme I would say it is a 2015 or newer.

What say finsbury? And seeing this is your first post, take the opportunity to introduce yourself. Nice looking GRiSO!

We got that colour scheme in 2012. That's why I asked. It's just my flat tappet paranoia kicking in! Very Happy

Thanks all, and to cure the flat tappet paranoia Smile

it's a later one, reg'd 2017

I've had a few bikes over the years, and really love riding the GRiSO. It feels so well balanced, and more agile than I expected - more so than the V7 Racer.

Beautiful bike! king

I agree, handling is much better than one might expect. Although, this bike is teaching me the art of slowing down and enjoying the ride, vs going to jail or (worse) becoming a road tomato... jocolor

@finsbury
The black & silver colour scheme looks fantastic.It was the colour I wanted when I purchased my GRiSO,but was told it was no longer an option as the red & black colour had replaced it.That’s a great looking bike.
There where a few second hand ones around,but I wanted a new GRiSO so had to settle for the new colour scheme.

Nice - must be one of the last registered in the UK. Love the end-can - Agostini ? What part of the UK are you ?

Montanarolo Posts : 24 Join date : 2019-06-11

Thanks, and yes it's an Agostini. Came with it, plus the original Smile

I'm in Cambridgeshire, not far form Huntingdon.

Welcome bloke,Nice GRiSO. It needs a little more black but that might be my personal taste slipping in. Very Happy

Looks good - I have the Agostini cone in black. Bet it's a lot lighter than the original - mine didn't come with the original, this was already fitted. Cracking bike - love it

I've not had the Agostini off the bike, but by carrying the original to/from the car I'd bet the Agostini is significantly lighter Smile

I do love the sound of the original though, so may give it a try at some point.

I replaced my muffler with a Mistral I original purchased for a 1200 Sport. I was able to easily cut out the extra inlet pipe the Mistral came with.

Weight saving was 5 kG. It would take me a long time to lose that much personally.

Stock muffler 7.23 kG
Mistral replacement 2.23 kG
