As the title says, I just purchased a new leftover 2012 Norge. :-D This is my first Guzzi and all I can say is unbelievable!! The sound, the ride and the sexiness of an Italian twin with perky jugs. :lol: Been pretty much been riding inline 4's all my life so this is a treat.
I've been lurking on this board for a while, soaking in as much info as possible and I'm glad to be a part of it now that I'm officially a Guzzi owner. Just a few pics for your viewing pleasure.

Congratulations looks realy nice in white. I wonder how you manage not riding with weather like that and those hills in the background. :cheer:
 
Thanks everyone for the compliments. Yeah its pretty rough living here with this weather and all the hills and twisties I have in my backyard! :lol: The Norge does very well on these roads considering its a Sport TOURER
I have another bike that I use for these roads which leans more to the SPORTTourer. :evil: Both these bikes serve there purpose.






This is what I use to tour on before I got the Norge, but the old bones are aching a bit more with age so it looks like the Norge is now going to accumulate a lot of miles in the future. :)
 
How do you like riding with the hardcases on the side? Any trouble adjusting? Do you splitlane with them? Sometimes I feel like I won't fit lol.

Nice bike though, Looks way nicer than the BMWs! :)
 
Riding with the hardcases on don't bother me, in fact I like them on (bike looks better with them on) :) I don't split lanes with them, so I'm not sure about how they fit when splitting lanes.

Thanks for the compliment Keith. I agree, the Norge does look better than the BMW.
 
Welcome. I missed your original post.

Yes, a beautiful Norge. My brother has the same model, also in white.

And, if I could only have one motorcycle -- which, thankfully, is not necessary -- think it might be an 8v Norge.

That said, all proper Italian motorcycles are red. :laugh:

Taken today on a drizzly but nice ride in Frederick County, Virginia, with two young friends on vintage bikes.

Best,

Bill
