Looky here!! V7 chin spoiler for the GRiSO

GRiSO Posts : 1406 Join date : 2014-01-02

I got this chin from AF1 racing for $34 shipped to my door.
For that price I couldn't pass it up... beats the $400+ alternative from Stucchi.
Of course like everything I do, it's not a bolt on since it's made for the V7 bike.
But a piece of plastic ain't scaring me so after a few cuts and refined contours I had it looking good.
The engineered part was the brackets but I ain't scared to cut metal either. Twisted Evil

I will make a stainless mesh screen to mach the rest of the bike and look less V7 but I have to get the material first...

Making up a solid *Screen* for the front for cold, wet weather might help with the over cooling problem too.

I hear you Pete but I live in a warm environment all year around so I'm not too worry about the operating temp being too low and I try not ride in the rain.
I'd block the oil cooler vents if I had that issue though.
Also, I ordered some fine stainless steel mesh to replace the factory grille.
I could always make a solid screen to go behind it as well...

The P-40 WarHawk paint scheme should follow, yes? Smile

Needs more roadshit thrown up on it to make it blend in. Very nice job you've done. I like it.

Thanks Tod.
Hard to keep it clean regardless and road rash is like sandblasting that area.

DM, I ain't painting a shark mouth on my bike! lol

I found a pic somewhere (here?) with a sharkmouth on a GRiSO and it blended quite well.
Since you won't do it I will. Smile

You can write a report on all the different bugs you catch

It actually looks better in real time.
Belongs there, like it was made for it. It's a Guzzi part after all. Laughing

Pictures sometimes just don't reflect the truth.
