T
here are certain machines out there that scream
a massive "f-you!" to anyone within earshot. Think
Lockheed F-117 Nighthawk, Apache helicopter, any
WWII tank. These mechanical marvels are built for humans
to trample the world as conquerors.
They represent a sign of superiority.
And, even though we are just talking about a motorcycle
here and not a weapon of war, the brand new, carbon-fiber-
clad Moto Guzzi MGX-21 Flying Fortress still has that same
throaty malice in its voice. It's cut from the same cloth.
A CARBON-FIBER
BAGGER!? IN
THE WORDS OF
THE IMMORTAL
JOHNNY MAC,
"YOU CANNOT BE
SERIOUS!"
The Guzzi
is indeed
a massive
motorcycle but
it carries its
weight well.
