The Moyo Guzzi Griso 1200 8V motorcycle was manufactured by Moto Guzzi in 2007 and presented at the 2006 Milan Moto Show. It packed a new engine, a slightly more comfortable seat for the passenger, more tapered side panels, a new Brembo braking system, and a new exhaust system connected to a double offset end cap silencer.
In 2009, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer launched the Moto Guzzi Griso 1200 8V SE, a special edition machine that proudly showed off its Satin Green color scheme in honor of Omobono Tenni along with other improvements.
In 2012, Moto Guzzi released the Moto Guzzi Griso 1200 8V SE, a special edition motorcycle painted in a Black Devil color scheme instead of the Satin Green paint used until 2011.
The 2012 model came with the same package as the previous one, delivering the same technical, visual, and performance specifications without any significant modifications whatsoever.
Underneath its fuel tank, the 2012 Moto Guzzi Griso 1200 8V SE had installed a 1,151cc four-stroke air-cooled V-twin engine, boasting 110 hp with a peak force at 7,500 rpm and 108 Nm (80 lb-ft) torque at 6,400 rpm, sending the bike to 210 kph (130 mph).
In 2011, the bike was delivered with a few improvements, such as a new handlebar that improved the aerodynamic package, a new seat with leather upholstery, a new 50 mm throttle body, new Marelli IWP 189 fuel injectors, and a new Black Devil color scheme.
