Congrats and welcome.
Just back from riding mine two-up (and heavily loaded with distaff hair supplies, etc! ) to W.V. Guzzi rally at Pipestem. What a wonderful machine.
What is build date of your Norge? Mileage?
Mine suffered -- as did quite a few built c.Nov. '06 - c,Mar. '07 -- from defective oil pumps that led to na$ty results.
Yours is not necessarily affected, but be aware. If outside build date or high mileage -- mine and others seemed to have the problem c.20K -- likely no concern.
Another niggle with '07 Norges was soft spring on OEM shock, at least for folks who aren't built like thoroughbred jockeys or who carry sweeties who bring along their closets.
Best,
Bill
