Yes, all is well

After a far too busy summer, I've now found some time for biking too. Not without accidents, though: last week I rode over a cat (killing it) and today I hit a piece of rock on a mountain road, ruining the front wheel of my brand new Norge. Bad luck.

Yes right, I've exchanged the 1100 Breva for a brand new Norge 1200 GT. It's a magnificent bike. It's heavier than Breva, but oddly it's easier to ride - also on a twisty road ... on any kind of road, that is. The engine is a bit smoother, with faster throttle response and the extra weight at the front makes the whole bike feel more stable on twisty bits. Some pics below.

I have found the same, Pexi, more weight on the front makes a bike handle better in the curves. Just shifting your body weight forward can instantly improve handling. 8^ ) So I guess you got rid of your 750 Breva too?
