Got it about a month ago, thrown loads of extras at it but more importantly it now has open air box, baffleless Agostini exhaust and a Power Commander 5 to bring it all together. Goes and sounds fantastic! My first Guzzi and just love it!!!

The mirrors are by Rizoma and the hand guards are by Oxford. Both available on EBay

Aye, also Rizoma. A bit pricey but anything they make is total quality and fantastic design. Their website is well worth a look (give the wife some ideas for Christmas!!!)

Nice set of changes to your Griso. I like it.

The Griso is a nice looking motorcycle to begin with, it has a refreshing style, is easy on the eye:  for me the Griso and the 750S3 are the best looking bikes by Moto Guzzi.

The airbox mod and open exhaust transformed the 1200. I suspect its done the same for your Griso... which looks stunning

Thanks.

Aye it did help massively but only really after fitting a Power Commander 5 and then getting it custom mapped on a Dyno. Even with the generic PC map downloaded from their site it was running a wee bit rough.

Smooth as silk now

I've never bothered having the power commander treatment, though the Stage 1 kit does give the bike a new ECU, which has been tweaked by Baldrick's workshop - how much did the Power Commander stuff cost? and what did it do to the insurance cost?

The PC 5 cost £340 and the Dyno tune £150

Doesn't do anything to my insurance as I don't mention it.
