2009 Moto Guzzi Norge 850[edit | edit source]

2009 Moto Guzzi Norge 850

The smaller brother of the mighty Norge 1200, the 850 model is an excellent all-rounder which can be ridden daily to work, still boasting touring capabilities when loaded with accessory storage. This machine retains the comfort-focused engineering of the bigger tourer, but addresses riders who are looking for a middleweight bike.

With a hefty dose of sporty character this machine has all it takes to proudly sit in the sport-touring class. However, given its unmistakeable transverse v-twin, the 2008 Norge 850 is a head-turning appearance and many will dream of throwing a leg over it.
