It might have a stupid name, but I think this is rather spiffing...



Lashings of carbon, a real-gold pinstripe, fancy electronics etc. It is a bit steep at 60 grand mind-you.

Beautiful bike, I'd struggle to justify the price, it's a beautiful machine, possibly the nicest F4 yet and the last of this breed, but at that money it brings in an awful lot of other machinery.

None of the MV specials hold their value, often advertised later for much less than their sale price. The Senna's are possibly holding their own as they were much cheaper to start with, but the Oro, Veltro's, Tamburini's and CC's seemingly very difficult to shift.

An H2R is way faster. A Desmosedici would be brought into contention. Norton F4SS with lots of change. If it were 45k I'd say it were worth it, the price is somewhat eye watering in terms of value for what you get. If I could afford it, I'd have to think hard to blow that much wedge on it. You can pick up a Tamburini at half that and materially they're not that different and even they are looking overpriced.

Beautiful bike though and more exquisite I think then any of the above, although the Norton is a thing of beauty if they ever get around to building it!

An MV that has crashed through the Norton history books on its way to being an extra in the next Tron movie, what an awful thing to do to such a classic silhouette ....

This is beautiful, but given this is the same F4 that has existed for like 20 years it is heavy and not particularly comfortable (but then I am not an investor, I like to use the stuff I buy).

Thing is, if you have an F4 special itch to scratch, it’s probably the nicest version available. I hope they see the light of day, if I had one it certainly would.

That one was the CC, which this one is not.
