On your "Best Bikes You've Ever Owned" list, where do you think you'd put the MV....???

I don't know yet.

It's the best looking bike I've had. I smile each time I see it. It's the fastest and best handling bike and the sound is intoxicating. But I've not spent enough time on it.

I need to do more miles, sort out the suspension and do a track day on it.

MOT passed so she's good for another year. Let's hope I get to ride it a bit more this year.

I went out in the car on some old cycling routes and was thinking about the bikes,absolute hiden gem roads we can get out on the bikes this summer on them

I've ordered a radiator protector for it. £50 for an R and G one. A lot cheaper than a hole in the radiator.

What sort of bhp is it making? It is a special looking bike.

they reckon that the engine produces 148bhp at the crank.

I can confirm its Fast....

I gave Perkles the benefit of the MV Agusta fly past so he could hear it on full chat.

How many miles do you have on that bike now?

3,600

It doesn't sound like that mileage is going to go up anytime soon. But when you can defo make the most of it Kwacky

I've been using the MV a lot recently and getting to gel with it. It can be hard work on the road but it's very rewarding when you're on it. It's very planted and easily goes where you want it to. I forget how nimble it is and tend to go far too slow on slow corners as if I'm riding one of my adventure bikes.

It's fecking fast, sounds awesome and looks stunning.

That is a beautiful bike especially in the stealth black

its a keeper and the looks will never date

I've sent emails off to MV and my local dealer about bubbles in the paint on the tank. By all accounts some bikes around the same age as mine have had the same issue. They start to appear well after the warranty date. MV have changed a few tanks in the States but seem to dig in in Europe. I'll have to see what the dealer says.
