Ok
There is no real good reason to buy a Moto Guzzi, even though they are very good motorcycles. In North America they only sell about one thousand bikes ( I believe that’s an older statistic) and in Canada where I live it’s a fraction of the one thousand. So why did I buy a Moto Guzzi Breva 1100? I guess it’s just who I am. I like to represent the minority group. I also wanted something simple to maintain and repair since I have no dealer network although I’m sure any qualified motorcycle mechanic will tackle a Guzzi without much difficulty. I also believe that Moto Guzzi supports older bikes with parts and does not abandon their heritage. As an older guy getting back into biking, looking forward to the weekend trips, riding to the grocery store because my wife needs something and talking about my bike at a local donut shop in the town nearest to me. I look forward to interacting with this group as well.
 
Congrats and welcome to the GT Forum and Guzzi Famiglia. You are certainly correct, but the air-cooled machines have such good soul. It’s why I started this website in 2001. As a support channel for owners. Kind of like any addiction. ;)
Please add your info to our Registry below. Enjoy the site.

Thread 'Breva 11 - Norge 12 & 1200 Sport Registry and picture thread'

Below is an on-going database of Breva 1100 & 1200(S) and Norge variants worldwide. Why? Just for the fun of it. If your bike isn't listed below, post a reply to this thread, and I'll add you along with a link to your post with a picture (hopefully of you and your bike, as they all look the same otherwise). If you've sold your bike, or bought one recently and are the new owner of one below, please post.
Feel free to write me direct e-mail to add a photo if you're having any issues in doing so; Info at GuzziTech.com

I can attest to the Moto Guzzi soul. I also own a KTM 1290 Super Adventure S, though it is an awesome and powerful machine, the feeling I get riding my Moto Guzzi is more dare I say sensual, visceral, satisfying. The sounds, and feedback from the Moto Guzzi makes me feel like it's more of a living beast, than just a machine.
