The MGX-21 bagger and V9 Bobber are stinkers, requiring a particularly strong dedication to character over, say, being able to ride at higher speeds, or comfortably navigating roads more technically challenging than a Target parking lot. Moto Guzzi let much of its lineup wither on the vine farewell the Griso, Norge, Stelvio, etc. Under Piaggio's leadership, Moto Guzzi's output has been somewhat hit and miss, and mostly miss, especially since the implementation of Euro 4 environmental regulations back in 2016.
