2007 Moto Guzzi Norge 1200 GT, 2007 Moto Guzzi Norge 1200 GT, Very good condition. Very low miles: 14K. Some minor scratches from the previous owner, but the bike has not been down that I know of. I bought the bike from a Guzzi dealer 3 years ago, and I have maintained it meticulously and added several farkles. Everything works, including: ABS, electric windscreen (new motor), two powerlet outlets, one battery tender lead, 12V "cigarette" outlet, dual FIAMM horns, heated grips, Antigravity high power lithium ion battery. Also has the aftermarket dipstick extender (looks great and is much more practical), Guzzi side cases (some minor scratches) and a GIVI top case. Brakes, oil, tires, etc. all very recent. MCN says $6415 without any extras. My price is reasonable at $5500.

2009 Moto Guzzi Norge 1200 GT, Mechanically this thing runs and sounds amazing with a 1200 Sport exhaust and suspension. Cosmetically it's a bit rough having been knocked over in city a few times. Side cases and front faring are scratched. Bike comes with Givi top case, Throttlemeister, and extra tall windscreen (in addition to the stock one). $5,500.00
