    A babelfished press release:


    ----------------
    A first photo and a little more, this Guzzi Norge is destined to the
    loving heart of the touring Guzzisti. A model that many have long waited
    for after the fabulous GT had shown itself to the Intermot of 2000 to
    then disappear without a word. A new age for Moto Guzzi that lately has
    been known to keep it’s promises.

    The debut of the new Guzzi will be seen at Eicma (Milan Motorcycle Show
    2005) is announced with a proposed release of March 2006.

    While the name: Norge, its original namesake from a 1928 Guzzi, that
    completed an enterprising journey leaving from Mandello and headed north
    through Europe, an epic adventure for the time. A deserving name,
    therefore, the Norge is styled with beautiful modern and pleasant lines
    with a dose of substance.

    It is not a covered Breva, the Norge changes all before it and also in
    the piston displacement. The engine is a V of 90° with air-cooling and
    has grown to 1200 cc and therefore it must also have improved
    performance. It has ABS brakes, GPS navigation and electricall
    adjustable windshield.

    The Norge will officially be introduced 15 November to Eicma (Milan),
    after that date they will be in a position to gives further news of its
    release to you.

    Yeah I was thinking the very front quarter (headlight and windscreen)
    was a bit ordinary

    (I'm sure it'll be effective though)
