New to me, Griso 1100
« on: January 18, 2026, 02:02:57 AM »
I just picked this up from my buddy who does paintwork ( he's painted both of my long term projects). What a peach of a bike!

It's nice to buy something that is already done instead of another project. I have a couple of little things to take care of like cracked turn signal stems and a foggy dash. Fun bike!

Great bikes, I should have never sold my 1200.
Best of luck with your new ride!

Congrats, The 1100 Griso is a great bike, one of my all time favorites.

10 years ago, I sold my FJR1300 and haven't looked back. I have a Convert, but the GRiSO converted ME....

Other than a Beetle Map, lowered foot pegs, mana bars, and an Agostini hydroformed pipe, it is stock, and still great fun to ride.
