Do it man....Whilst you can! You'll always be thinking "what if" etc, etc...

Don't suppose you get massive discounts on an MV Augusta F4 by any chance ??!!

Love it!!! Only jealous I can't have one really. I have to admit it's a pretty piece of engineering which the Italians seem to have a flare for whether it's Ducati or Aprilia.

That is fcensoredg gorgeous. Never liked the look of 749/999 range much, and never thought anything would make me consider parting with my 748 SPS, but the 1098 lick.
Not sure about the Tricolore version, but the S is beautiful. Anyone any idea of the list price ? And will they do a yellow one ?
