2011 Norge GT
I’am not a fan of big touring bikes, but the sound and feel of any v-twin bike has a certain feel that can’t be replaced, you have to ride one to be able to understand how addictive it is….thats why i have a fetish for v-twin bikes.
The 2011 Norge GT its engine and exhaust system updated to the more powerful 8 valve (4 valves per cylinder) and now the 8V 1200 is pumps up 102 bhp, with 104 Nm (77 lb-ft) torque at 5500 rpm. For better cornering and stability when the bike is fully loaded with the touring gear, the suspension was also upgraded with new front forks and a new rear shock absorber.
The bike also got a new power-adjusted windscreen, new improved air flow fairings for engine cooling, anti-slip seat with a “body forming” foam, vibration-dampened footrests.

Last year i posted about this bike, but no one was sure if its only a conept or its gona hit the roads….well the 7V Racer is already at a couple of showrooms in Italy and on Moto Guzzi website …i wonder when will it visit Kuwait showroom.

A Master Piece
Filed under: Bike World, Bikes, Local, Moto Guzzi, Reviews
I visited Bike World showroom today to check if they got any newinteresting bikes, and i wasn’t disappointed…they had the new spacial edition Griso, the GRISO 8V SE.
The bike comes only in a matte green finish with race stripes that gives it a sporty look, a brown leather saddle with classic stitching, and to top up the classic looks it also comes with Alpina spoked wheels, these wheels are the best tubeless spoked wheels on the market and are race ready, i even upgraded my Duc with a set of their Tattoo line.. what surprised me even more is the use of floating discs breaks and calipers, a race technology that you don’t usually see on a production bike.
This bike needs someone with a very spacial taste to appreciate the name and the history of Moto Guzzi, someone that appreciate the good looks, someone with a character, someone that will look like the cherry on the cake when riding this master piece.
I hate the Italians, because all their creation constantly reminds me that i am not Jay Leno and i can’t afford a grage like Jay Leno’s Garage , and to own every bike you like would be like getting married to every beautiful women you meet….its never ending.
l think this Guzzi was born a classic, so if you like classic bikes then this one must be among your collection and you have got to see it in person to know what i am talking about.
This one is real
The new MOTO GUZZI V7 CLUBMAN RACER…can you see the side mirrors, can you resist not loving this Guzzi?
Oh.. the technical data -its crap -, but who cares when you are riding a bike with such looks.

Ride in style

I was in Shuwaikh yesterday and noticed a new motorcycle showroom…i looked up to the sign and saw the following brands: Aprilia, PIAGGIO, Vespa, GILERA, and MOTO GUZZI !!!
Parked quickly.. went down to check it out and there it was…a part of Italy’s’ motorcycle history, a showroom full of Vespa scooters, Moto Guzzi, and Aprilia ..
The Vespas’ were irresistible…i don’t know how i resisted going back on one, Vespa is an icon and it doesn’t matter if you are a male or a female, young or old, a house wife or a businessman the Vespa will have your heart skip a beat…this scooter is one of the few bikes that have a style of its own and has maintained its classic and classy looks look over the years.. no visit to Italy is complete without renting a Vespa and riding it on the twisty roads of Sorrento.
