The MGX-21 is the most unconventional, rich and technological of the 1400 cc grand cruisers built at Mandello del Lario. It is the latest distinguished representative of a line begun in 1921 when Moto Guzzi started to make unique hand built motorcycles as one-off collector's items. The design of the MGX-21 Flying Fortres leaves little room for indifference and, like all Moto Guzzi, begins by showing off the engineering of the big 90° transverse V-twin engine. Its two large cylinders seem literally to explode out of the petrol tank, helping to significantly lower and streamline the side view. | The MGX-21 is the most unconventional, rich and technological of the 1400 cc grand cruisers built at Mandello del Lario.
