    Warning / Helibars on Norge / Cable Wear

    I installed a set on my 07 Norge. I noticed they dinged my tank on the left and right when the bars were turned to the max. They did not improve the riding position much. Have traded the bike in since on a Ducati Mulltistrada. I find the Ducati to be more comfortable then the Guzzi, a wee bit...

    Trailering a Norge 1200

    I bought powertie straps and think they are the cats ass. also installed a Condor wheel chock. Have hauled my Norge across the country and back twice as well many times down south, no problems. Important to tie the back of the bike down as well as the front. http://powertye.com/store/index.php...

    Norge won't run after upgrades

    Sounds like maybe your your problem may in the headlight. Try starting it on High beam after replacing the blown fuse. If it runs then you have a short on the low beam circuit which was an issue with the Norge.

    2008 Norge - Vanishing Oil

    My opinion on your low oil Norge. The dealer never checked it and sent it out with low oil level. It would not surprise me that the oil in it was original, which is break in oil. Being a demo bike, they get ridden in many different ways and some hammer the hell out of them to see what it will...

    Gas tank fuel line fitting upgrade

    Went on the Omega site and looked at the couplers, they look like they would do the job. Steven, which couplers did you go with? Looks like the delrin ones were suitable for gas. Are they able to be purchased direct?

    Gas tank fuel line fitting upgrade

    I am interested in replacing the quick disconnect in the fuel line to remove the tank. The one used by MG is a cheap setup that is a pain in the butt to get disconnected. Does anyone out there know of a better solution, or replacement of the connector with a better quality unit?

    Norge idle

    MY 07 Norge does the same thing, high idle at times, I don't worry about it as it eventually goes down to normal idle. Have no idea what causes it.

    GAS TANK PIMPLES

    Could you send me the bottle of stridex? My tank looks like an adolescent with acne problems. Actually, the tank is not that bad, it did come with 2 rather large blemishes under the paint and I just thought it was a poor finish job, but now other smaller pimples are showing up, so I have to...

    GAS TANK PIMPLES

    When I bought my Norge in 2007, it was brand new. I brought it home in January so was not able to ride it until the weather got better. I noticed that the gas tank had 3 blemishes on it that were under the paint. They sort of looked like pimples of varying size, but no damage to the paint, so I...

    Norge windshield motor no longer works

    I figured out how to convert the power windshield into a manual one. I installed 2 compression springs between the lift mechanism and the windshield motor mount. This causes spring pressure to the lift mechanism and will keep it in the up position. Sounds kind of confusing, but is actually a...

    Norge windshield motor no longer works

    Yesterday I went to Americade, about a 250 mile jaunt too and from. As I said earlier, I had removed the windshield up and down motor because it stopped working. I was in hopes that the windshield would work as a manual one, which it does standing still. When riding with the shield in the up...

    Inner Spark Plugs

    I did my inner plugs at 20,000 miles. They looked fine when removed. I replaced them with new ones and used never seize on the threads. I have seen threads pulled out if the plugs stay in there to long, so it is a good idea to at least remove and clean them on a periodic basis. They are a pain...

    Norge windshield motor no longer works

    Pulled the motor out to see if I could use the windshield as a manual up and down. It seems to work okay, albeit I have not taken it for a ride yet. I tested the motor with a battery charger and it seemed to turn fine, so i am not sire if the motor crapped out or something else is causing the...

    Norge windshield motor no longer works

    I am going to pull mine out to see if it is at all fixable. Will try to relay the specs of the motor here.

    Norge windshield motor no longer works

    My windshield worked fine until it stopped working. No warning signs that things were crapping out. The windshield was in the upper position for the last month or so. I went to lower it cause of a hot day and it did not work. Motor made a creaking noise. I haven't taken it apart yet to see what...

    Norge windshield motor no longer works

    That was my thought. I am sure the motor is made in hogshu, China or somewhere in the orient and may be able to be bought at a more reasonable price then from Moto Guzzi. If you come up with anything let me know. I may try the same thing, once I get things apart.

    Norge windshield motor no longer works

    The other day I went to lower my windshield, 2007 MG Norge, and nothing happened, it stayed in the up position. I stopped and checked the fuses and all were good. Turned the key on, pushed the windshield down button, the motor made a creaking noise. Tried the up button, same thing. Removed the...

    "Ghost throttling sound" or something on my Norge

    I noticed when stopped at a light or stop sign, idling, pull in the clutch put it into first it will idle up a bit as if the machine knows that you are about to take off. Also new engines do not idle down as quickly as those of years ago due to emissions controls.
