jihem Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 it's in MCN this will be shown at the GMG, next week. Apparently, frame has been adapted and there are about 545 new parts in this 1200 engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete roper Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 What's wrong with white? Makes it easier to paint the colour you want . I reckon my trademark 'Tree Frog' green would look very nice Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guzzirider Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 The motor looks a little differnt to the spy photo we were treated to the other day- wonder if that white bike is based on the original plastic mock up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 I wonder if they'll take the motor and put it into something Le Mans-ish..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocker59 Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 anxious to see how this new engine performs... too bad this white Griso didn't get a black frame... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ballacraine Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 Looks like we got a 3/4 size fugly can...... Twice!! The rest of it looks pretty cool though.... I agree it would be sharper with a black frame. Nige. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gyles Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 I like it ! The rocker covers are quite bland though... I thought they'd try and make a feature of the fact its a 4v head. I like it in white - mindst I liked that pale blue they did the 2v griso in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Minnaert Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 pierre , I see there 110 hp, and technical specs from the 850 griso. The rest is the press anouncement, see that before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pierre Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 pierre , I see there 110 hp, and technical specs from the 850 griso. The rest is the press anouncement, see that before. Paul, from that article:Although designed along traditional lines, the new engine is a celebration of the logic behind the 90 degree V concept. It features a single overhead camshaft that operates the four valves on each cylinder with noiseless timing chains. This is quite an evolution to the already tuned 1200 cc engine that now puts out 110 CV at 9,500 rpm with maximum torque of 11 kgm. (Emphasis added.) What catches my eye is 9500 rpm. My guess is if you spun the Daytona motor that fast (with suitable cams) you would approach same numbers. Time tested method of increased power, spin the pump faster. (edit) Or am I reading this wrong. Are those specs for the current 2 V 1200? 9500 rpm? I frankly have no idea what the 2 v 1200 puts out. Anyone know? Is the current 2 v 1200 rated at 9500 rpm?

Paul Minnaert Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 well you have to make the air in and out efficient enough to have that power at 9500. My daytona has peak at 8000. And the guzzilla doesn't have it much higher. It could be that they use a real big bore like the guareschi "bigbore", and short stroke. A duc 1098 does have it's peak at 9800 I think, short stroke, big bore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
