Headers look like someone bent them over their knee.
Arse end looks like pus.
Why have two mufflers when they're fed by one pipe ?
I'd like to see someone solve the small tank thing and re locate the toaster on the side.

I like the stacked pipes... otherwise it looks like a Griso.  I guess that was the point.  I'd like to see Guzzi bring it back, or perhaps a new naked beast with sporting intentions.

+1

I think the stacked pipes give it symmetry front to back. And the tail isn't as truncated as, say, the recent GT offering we were critiquing last week.

I like it.

Griso can still deliver 160 miles on a tank before hitting reserve...that's still decent, albeit less than the Norge...but it's not a tragedy by any means.

I do like the double muffler on the stock Griso and this one is not bad either...makes it visually different.

The toaster on the side is signature Griso...better on the side, than down low!!

As you can see...while I love my Norge, I love my Griso as well for its uniqueness, and I don't want it to look like a Norge or behave like one either.

:)

interesting too, that this 'builder' chose to highlight the toaster, putting a silver screen on it, rather than leaving it blacked out

The rear end looks pretty awful, hanging the number plate holder and indicators of the CARC unit is lazy and ugly.

Can the oil cooler be up under the steering stem like the early Norges if you wanted to ?

160 miles on a tank before hitting reserve? Wow, how is that possible? I've had 2 8V's, a 13 and currently a 2017 and I've never got more than 126 before hitting reserve.....and that 126 was driving pretty slow with a group of old guys! Must be my love for sticky tires that's keeping my mileage curbed.
