MANDELLO DEL LARIO, Italy – Moto Guzzi is out with two new models with an 850cc engine as well as two variants of existing models.
Moto Guzzi expands its motorcycle range with the mid-sized V9 model in Roamer and Bobber configurations on which, the company says, “plastic parts are reduced to a minimum.” The 3.96-gallon teardrop gas tank is made of metal as are the front and rear fenders. Side covers, gas cap and brake and clutch levers are made of lightweight aluminum.
The V9 Roamer is the more colorful model, with the V9 Bobber coming in basic flat black, including the silencers, with yellow checkerboard highlights.

New to Moto Guzzi’s heavyweight lineup is the MGX-21 Flying Fortress, a 1,400cc bagger that joins the Audace and Eldorado cruisers.
