Very large bubble forming on Norge tank

It isn't going to happen to your 2015 Norge, surely MG has figured it out by that model year. Mine is a 2013.

Just took my Norge out for a ride and gave her a quick look over after coming home.  Found a bubble starting in the tank that was replaced a couple of months ago in the same spot as before.

Unfortunately, mine is a 2014, so Moto Guzzi may not have figured it out when they assembled mine. Who knows? Maybe they are still using tanks (and other parts) made several years ago when they assemble a "new" 2015 or 2016 model.

Will see how she holds up this summer, if problematic, she goes bye bye.

Never owned a MG, always jap bikes with ZERO problems. 

As a precaution, when it is time for your first service, if you trust the shop, have them replace the spark plug caps when they replace the spark plugs, and have them tighten all of the bolts that should have been tightened at the factory...

Every make of motorcycle can experience problems of one sort or another. I doubt we have much to worry about with our Norges. (Fingers crossed!)

Unfortunately the shop in my area(from what I've read) is no longer supporting MG, and the closest one now is about 90 minutes away.  Mine is a 2014, so far, with less than 4000 miles, two oil leaks, bad plug caps, an oil cooler hose that came loose and sprayed oil all over the side of the bike(lucky I caught it when I did as I in the middle of nowhere) and the second bulging gas tank.
This is a brand I don't think I'll be returning to.
