The MV Agusta F4CC might at first look to be something along the lines of Ducati’s endless, blinged-up “S” versions that slap on some carbon, slightly up-spec suspension, and call it a day. But the F4 “Claudio Castiglioni” is far from a paint-and-tape special edition. It is, without question, the ultimate incarnation of the first-generation…
2002 MV AUGUSTA F4 SENNA for sale on eBay! When Massimo Tamburini passed away last year, the world lost perhaps it’s most gifted motorcycle designer. Whenever there is a conversation about the most beautiful motorcycles of all time, the Ducati 916 and the MV Augusta F4 are always favorites. Tamburini gave us both of them.…
Given how few F4’s have actually been built, they’re over-represented on eBay. They’re the kind of motorcycle that people buy as investments or just to admire, then sell without putting many miles on them.

Intended to be the T-Rex of the grand comeback of the storied MV Agusta brand, the 2004 F4 750cc SPR had the very best bits that were offered on the F4 model (save the magnesium of the initial Oro model). With the most potent power plant in the lineup (estimates place it at 145-150 HP),…
The rebirth of MV Agusta started in 1997 under the Cagiva banner, and was seemingly created with the notion that all models would be limited editions. The concept is not surprising considering Cagiva was the parent company of Ducati, long famed for marketing unlimited numbered and special edition variants. The MV Agusta F4 was the…
Somewhere in Florida, a ’06 MV Agusta F4 CC is crying silently on a showroom floor. Like a greyhound in a crate, a F1 car in LA traffic jam, a or dolphin in a goldfish bowl, this is just wrong. Sure it is pretty to look at…but it was made to MOVE! Unfortunately, with the…
