About MV-Agusta
MV Agusta, originally Meccanica Verghera Agusta, is a motorcycle manufacturer founded on 12 February 1945 near Milan in Cascina Costa, Italy. The company began as an offshoot of the Agusta aviation company formed by Count Giovanni Agusta in 1923.
Count Vincenzo and Domenico Agusta had a passion for mechanical workings and for motorcycle racing. Much like Enzo Ferrari, they produced and sold motorcycles almost exclusively to fund their racing efforts. They were determined to have the best Grand Prix motorcycle racing team in the world and spared no expense on their passion.
The Count died in 1927, leaving the company in the hands of his wife and sons, Domenico, Vincenzo, Mario and Corrado. Count Vincenzo Agusta together with his brother Domenico formed MV Agusta at the end of the Second World War as a means to save the jobs of employees of the Agusta firm and also to fill the post-war need for cheap, efficient transportation.
MV Agusta produced their first prototype, called "Vespa 98", in 1945. After learning that the name had already been registered by Piaggio for its Vespa motorscooter, it was referred to simply by the number “98”.
In 1948, the company built a 125 cc two-stroke single and entered Franco Bertoni in the Italian Grand Prix. Bertoni won the event held in Monza and instantly put the new motorcycle manufacturer on the map.
The acronym MV stands for Meccanica (mechanics) Verghera, the hamlet where the first MVs were made. The company manufactured small-displacement, Cafe racer style motorcycles (mostly 125 to 150 cc) through the 1950s and 1960s.
In the 1960s small motorcycle sales declined, and MV started producing larger displacement cycles in more limited quantities. A 250 cc, and later a 350 cc twin were produced, and a 600 cc four-cylinder evolved into a 750 cc.

The Superveloce 800 sportbike, with 1970s flair, is the new a 2020 model. The Superveloce 800 is based on the F3 with an 800cc three-cylinder engine but masterfully disguises its origins with a carbon fiber fairing with a round headlight, a spectacular tail with a round lamp and a marvellous 3-1-3 exhaust system instead of the usual vertical rank of pipes.

Say, didn’t I already ride an MV Agusta F4 Claudio replica ten years ago? Yes, yes I knew it. But that one was officially the 2006 F4 CC (Claudio Castiglioni), and it was a fantastic, carbon-fiber clad delicacy with a delicious, leaned-upon F4 four-cylinder filling.

Twenty years ago, Massimo Tamburini begat the original MV Agusta F4, complete with 750cc radial-valve inline-Four, and it was good. Ten years later, the F4 begat this beast, with 1078cc and supposedly able to roll at 312 kph. Among the MOites, only the mighty Tor Sagen was able to smite it.

A special edition based on the Brutale 800 RR. However, you can’t say that they created something new, since the Brutale 800 RR America variant differs from the standard motorcycle only in decor elements. In particular, red-white-blue coloring and new seat upholstery.
