The Norge 850 is a testament to Moto Guzzi’s rich history and heritage, named after a daring 4000-mile test ride through northern Norway in the 1950s. This iconic motorcycle boasts an “elegant and dynamic” design, with exceptional ergonomics and comfort, making it a formidable competitor in both city traffic and long-distance touring.
The 850cc engine is a masterclass in refinement and performance, featuring a single overhead cam per head with hydraulically operated valves, a new exhaust system, and a 55% stiffer crankshaft. The result is a smooth, responsive power delivery that’s perfectly suited to both twisty roads and high-speed cruising.
Riding the Norge 850 is a joy, with its short wheelbase and agile handling making it a breeze to navigate even the most challenging urban environments. Whether you’re tackling a mountain pass or cruising down a scenic highway, this magnificent motorcycle is sure to leave you grinning from ear to ear. And as you settle into its luxurious ergonomics, you’ll know that you’re riding a true Grand Turismo, where flexibility and ease of use reign supreme.
