ACCESSORIES. There is only one Griso
No two riders are the same. For this reason, Moto Guzzi has created a range of accessories designed to customise their machines and let them reflect their owners.
Fly screen
The addition of an elegant Plexiglass fly screen makes the Griso 8V even more fascinating and sophisticated and adds to aerodynamic efficiency. The fly screen has been tested in a wind tunnel and assures increased comfort on long distance journeys Thanks to solid its construction using the best of materials, the screen easily passed the strict TÜV and DOT tests.
Carbon fibre starter motor cover
The carbon fibre starter motor cover, made in collaboration with CarbonDream®, is cured in an autoclave then polished.
It ensures both a significant weight saving and an even sportier look.

LIFESTYLE. The distinction of a Griso
A range of accessories for those that not only ride but live the Griso every day with items ranging from glasses to leathers.
Griso 8 V glasses
These new Griso 8V glasses that feature aluminium and magnesium frames are extremely light (less than 25 grammes) and have polycarbonate lenses and flexible arms with a concealed mechanism.
Sports leathers
A racket and trousers combination created in collaboration with Dainese. The suit is made from precious cowhide and is sealed against the elements by zips. There are composite material protective pads on the forearms, elbows, shoulders, knees and shins and knee sliders are available. The jacket has a removable thermal lining. The sections for knee sliders are covered with cowhide. Available in black with anthracite inserts.
