Millepercento Scighera: A Custom Moto Guzzi with Griso 8V Power

The Millepercento Scighera combines Moto Guzzi’s distinctive V-twin engine with a custom chassis and premium running gear. Developed by Italian Moto Guzzi specialist Millepercento, this stripped-back naked motorcycle puts its mechanical components at the center of the design.

Following the Alba and BB1, the Scighera continues Millepercento’s approach to limited-production motorcycles: retain the Guzzi character, then build a more individual machine around it.

Moto Guzzi Griso 8V Engine

At the heart of the Scighera is the 1,151 cc engine sourced from the Moto Guzzi Griso 8V. Fuel injection, four-valve cylinder heads, and a six-speed transmission provide the technical foundation for the build.

The prominent V-twin gives the motorcycle an unmistakable identity. In a naked design with little bodywork to distract the eye, the engine becomes more than a power source—it defines the motorcycle’s shape and character.

Millepercento’s approach gives that familiar engine a different setting, pairing it with a purpose-built frame rather than relying on cosmetic changes alone.

A Custom Frame and a Focus on Weight

The Scighera’s custom frame is one of its defining features. It forms the foundation of a build focused on reducing bulk and keeping the motorcycle visually and mechanically uncluttered.

Millepercento claimed a dry weight below 420 pounds, or approximately 190 kilograms. That figure refers to dry weight rather than a fully fueled, ready-to-ride motorcycle, but it illustrates the project’s emphasis on weight reduction.

For anyone interested in custom Moto Guzzi motorcycles, this is what makes the Scighera particularly compelling: the transformation extends to the chassis beneath the styling.

24-Spoke Aluminum Wheels

Among the Scighera’s standout components are its 24-spoke aluminum wheels, designed to accommodate tubeless tires.

The wheels bring a distinctive detail to an otherwise restrained motorcycle. On a naked build, where the wheels, frame, and engine remain exposed, individual components have a greater influence on the overall appearance.

Their tubeless compatibility also adds a practical element to the specification, giving the wheel design a purpose beyond its visual appeal.

Brembo Brakes and Öhlins Suspension

Brembo brakes and Öhlins suspension round out the Scighera’s equipment. Together with the custom frame and claimed low dry weight, these components reinforce the project’s performance-oriented direction.

The appeal lies in the complete package: a recognizable Moto Guzzi engine, a bespoke chassis, distinctive wheels, and established braking and suspension hardware. Each contributes to a build that goes considerably further than a paint scheme and a handful of accessories.

Limited-Production Exclusivity

At the time of its announcement, Millepercento planned to offer the Scighera through its Italian dealerships, with an anticipated price approaching €30,000. Those were the original launch plans and pricing expectations, rather than a current availability or price quotation.

The Scighera occupies an interesting space between a one-off custom and a conventional production motorcycle. It preserves the mechanical identity that draws enthusiasts to Moto Guzzi while giving it a more exclusive chassis and component package.

For riders and collectors interested in unusual Italian motorcycles, that combination is the Scighera’s strongest attraction: familiar Guzzi engineering expressed through Millepercento’s own vision.
