Italian handmade perfection. This is the R-version with 188 hp at the crank. Finaly MV agusta can compete with the 1000cc big boys from Japan. And whope there ass in every situation including the twisties. Only problem is that because of my friends experience with a MV Agutsa we now know some tech-people at MV don't take there job very seriously. His right pistonrod came out at about 210 kph. Every within the engine has been blown to bits. Bill? €8700 to repair. Cr*p, F*ck, Sh*t, D*mn.
