For Sale 2017 MV Agusta F3 800

OMG--Major want!!!

 

Boy oh boy...….

If I were 30 years younger
If I were 100 pounds lighter
If I were single

This would so be mine...….

Sir, you have excellent taste

 

I am considerably older, have a full set of natural hair, married, with a gut, and my organ donor bike, is even faster .

It was amusing. I went out street riding for a day or two after I purchased the bike. Just like old times. Some 20 something y/o kid wanted to exchange #'s, to text me for upcoming group rides.


An English motorcycle rag did an article on 70+ y/o blokes who still ride crotch rockets, on the street.

It's really difficult to permanently dismount these after you have experienced riding.

Just wait until you hit 50 and again want to ride.

 

Beautiful bike !

Beautiful. How much hp does that make?

 

Like Ralph above, I take some ribbing for "being on a Ducati" at my age...….62, that's not old...LOL
I make the wise guy buy a round for the bar!!

Of course yesterday was the one year, since my last and most severe crash.
I'm not planning on THAT again.

Still on the Ducs though.

This is lovely, GLWS!
Any new bike will blow you right off of it, compared to anything we came up on...

 

Very cool. That's liter bike power back from the early 2000s. Great stuff.

 

I am interested but do you think this is an appropriate bike for a first time rider?

Oh Jesus..only if you started with a Rider course at Honda and went real slow on your way to the Post Box.
For months....

This has "liter bike" levels of performsnce and would smear you a quarter mile down the highway if you made a mistake at speed....HTH

 

Makes my decision fairly easy!! Ty

Beautiful bike tho

Well, I had conditions!!

Take the Driver Training on a 250 Honda, that will help your insurance, and then take it easy.

That does bring up a good point, you can get a good view of Risk Ratio by calling your insurance agent and asking for a quote in your ZIP Code.
My rates for three Ducatis in downtown Houston: $$$$

They figure on my death, or it rolling away at midnight into a white unmarked van.

It's like a Ferrari, just because it CAN do 160MPH between stoplights, doesn't mean you have to drive that way.

I recently destroyed a 848 EVO CORSA.....the replacement out in Cali had a buyer as you, and the owner said "No" to the Test Drive.
But I guess if he had had $10,000 cash, who knows.

Bikes are kind of "one level up" from even the fastest of cars.
They threw my wreck into an Impound in Austin that was FULL of nice bikes.....that were done.

 

One of mine is solid black like this one....a low visibility color.

But the lady that hit me missed seeing THIS!!

Thank you so much for taking the time to walk me through.

I have my eye on a ducati monster 797 at the nearby manhattan dealership that is offering a sale and this caught my eye.

I am gonna take the time to take classes on how to work on the bike and also try to find a reasonable starting place. I don’t really need the fastest.

However you bring up a great point I should call an insurance company to figure out costs and things I can do in my power.

Really just trying to learn the best steps and window shop along the way...

They have a replacement for my bike in Manhattan!
But they won't call me back, might be sold...less than 2K miles.

First closed for Covid, now maybe burned down??

If you are a normal person with a multi line car insurance policy they are not too bad.
But when you calculate the rate against the value they are not expecting it to last long....LOL

 

At least a Monster lacks the body panels.

Dropping a ST3 or a EVO destroys a lot of expensive Italian plastic.
Maybe we better get back to this sweet MV!

 

Keep that thing. Best $11k piece of art around!
