    Norge fuel filter replacement went well

    I did mine last fall. I bought the replacement filter from my local dealer. It came as a kit with a little piece of fuel hose and some crappy hose clamps. I made the mistake of trusting these items. I ran my tank pretty low to do the work. Then I rode to the gas station and filled up. 3 mile...

    Fuel filter

    I just replaced mine on Saturday. Once the tank was off it was not hard. I did have to go and get some hose clamps ( that didn't fit ). I mad the original one work. I got an all metal filter for the replacement and it all went together pretty good. Since the metal filter was a bit big for the...

    Norge weather protection

    I tried the Stelvio hand guards without the bar risers. They did not work. After rising up the bars about 36mm higher, the handguards work very well. The amount of steering lock that I lost is miniscule. I have not had any problems moving the bike around in my driveway and in parking conditions...

    Mirrors

    I got rid of the ugly chrome mirrors and put some nice black ones on.

    Norge weather protection

    The Bar Risers came From Moto International. They are about 36mm high and are necessary to make the hand guards work with the fairing. Otherwise your hand guards are facing down to miss the fairing or you have no steering in tight spaces to move the bike around. Can't help with the rain...

    Norge weather protection

    I have an '08 and I have the taller windscreen. Night and day difference. I would highly recommend. I also have the handguards from a Stelvio and bar risers to make them not hit the fairing. The stock fairing will not protect your hands.

    New to Moto Guzzi and to the forum

    I rode my friend's Breva 1100 and that is what got me hooked on Moto Guzzi. I really liked the Breva, but I wanted the bags and the wind protection so I got the Norge. Charactistics: Nice low end pull Revs up to about 8000RPM Handles well...

    tank removal

    The detailed instructions were extremely helpful for removing the tank. I did not start up the bike an thus had a little fuel to catch. Some of it didn't get caught and spilled on the inner parts of the bike. That special connection is a puzzler, until you know how it is supposed to work. Next...

    Norge vs FJR

    You have to sit on one! Sometimes going to a showroom and just sitting on a bike will help you make up your mind. I have short 28" or 29" inseam and a 36" seat height does not do it for me, especially for 2 up riding. Yamaha FJR, Kawasaki Concourse, Honda ST all have really tall seats. That...

    Buying a new Norge and warranty - best price?

    The best deal you can get is on a new 08. Moto International sells all over the country even though they are in Seattle. Good people.

    Norge vs RST Futura

    I have never ridden the Futura, but I do ride a Norge. I am 5'8" with an inseam of 28" or 29". I can put my foot down and the bike is comfortable at low speeds. Other tall bikes that I sat on are Yamaha FJR, Honda ST1300, and Kawasaki Concourse. None of them fit the flat foot for me. The other...

    Newbie Guzzi

    I have found a way to deal with the grabbing front brakes. I only use the rear brake for anything slower than 25mph. Especially under 10mph. You will find you have control of the braking and that bike won't lurch forward when you apply the brakes.

    Norge in my future

    If you are talking of the one at Moto International, I rode that one. I purchased a black one that had 5 miles on it. I decided that I wanted a year newer and I wanted to put all of the miles on it myself. Maybe some day I can paint flames on the tank or something. Can you bring the bike to...
