A good source of "octane" info - beyond "what everyone knows" - is to be found here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octane_rating
21st century Guzzi engines combine use of fuel injection, knock sensors, and an Engine Control Unit to suppress (usually eliminate) detonation (knocking).
All carburetted engines remain at risk. For them especially make sure to use the lowest grade of clean, uncontaminated, pure. non-ethanol fuel that runs in your engine without detonation.
