Description

Click here for an CycleVIN Motorcycle History Report on this 2015 Moto Guzzi Griso. Additional photos are available here for your perusal.

The Moto Guzzi Griso SE was a special edition of the venerable Griso, and it differed from the base bike with a fancy paint job, some blacked-out parts, and spoked wheels.

Mechanically, you also got adjustable suspension, and giant Brembo brakes – this bike was an interesting balance between the style of a custom with the components of a sportbike.

The 8V engine produces 110 horsepower at 7,500 rpm and a healthy 79 ft-lbs of torque at 6,400 rpm.

The “Black Devil” livery came with a powdercoated black frame, as well as the handlebar and inverted forks.

These are rare sights on the road, and they’re solid all-arounders that are dripping with exclusivity. As the wonderful Kevin Ash (RIP) once said in an article for BikeEXIF: “…the bike whose looks do the most for me is the Guzzi Griso, sweeping and elegant on the left, overtly mechanical and rugged on the right.”

This example is VIN: ZGULSU027FM200288.

The seller is none other than the world-renowned actor and motorcycle enthusiast Ewan McGregor! After joining Iconic at our last Laguna Seca track day, he recently stopped by for a visit and brought with him five Moto Guzzis for sale.

The odometer shows 5,980 miles.

Ewan told us that he used to have a Griso back when he lived in London, and he sold it when he moved to America in 2008. Those of you that watched the Long Way Down may remember a couple of scenes showing Ewan riding his Griso into his and Charley’s office.

He missed the Griso when he was in the US so he sought out a low mileage example, he believes he’s the second owner.

Modifications:
This Griso appears to be completely stock.

Inside of the tank:
