Typical "Harley Guy", used to short shifting. Quickly compared it to a Sportster, and felt his street glide was faster.... Pleeasee!That Griso needs some revs to impress!

Post by: zebraranger on August 16, 2018, 10:34:56 PM: Just couldn't watch the whole video, hard to watch someone ride a Griso like it was a Harley. At one point he was doing 35 mph and only showed 1000 rpms, That's Griso abuse.

Post by: Huzo on August 17, 2018, 12:29:49 AM: Dunno 'bout y'all, but the opening bit up to about 50 seconds, reminded me of a poorly done porno where he "finds" a willing homely participant on the street for a "casting" session...
Maybe I'm just a bit old fashioned..?
Still don't know what all the fuss about these "Moto Gootsee Greaso's" is based on, what do they actually "do" that deserves such unbridalled adulation ?
Is it just 'cos everyone else says it ?
I had a ride on one in the UK, and it felt like a Massey Ferguson tractor he'd stolen from a field days.
The worst bit was I had to let him on my Norge, I regretted it the moment he let out the clutch. After the ride he asked me what I thought..
Didn't want to say it felt like a bucket of pus with no suspension and poxy ergonomics, so I told him the Silver/Blue colour looked pretty...
