I was going to put pics of my 996 up, but you probably seen 20 today.So heres my other girl.
Chaz, that's great looking ride. I don't know anything about bikes, can you give the performance figures, pls? How does it differ from , say, a Ducati and what's the scoop with that exhaust? Looks like a rocket ship from the back !
It differs from the Duc 748/996 because this is a 750cc inline 4 bike, versus the twin of the Duc's. Ducs have much more torque down low, while the F4 like screaming up on the top end. F4 has about 145Hp @13K rpm at least the SPR version that I remember two years ago. Many people say this is the bike the new 749/999 should have been, and this is the natural progression of design.
Yes Tony, the MV Agusta is indeed called the most beautiful bike in the world, with the involvment of Ferrari in the design of the engine, the exhaust system was designed after dismataling the Ferrari F40s exhaust system that belonged to the MV Agusta Director. Prices start from £13,000 to £27,000 for the special edition ORO. Power is around 120ih bhp, though not as fast in exceleration as ny Duke but it has it on top end due to it smoth 4 cylinders.It has been made in small numbers and this one is pure Italian. I am currently waiting for the 1000 cc model, it will look the same but will have more power, though now it is 60% owned by a Malasian company so not all Italian. I will keep this bike next to my new one.
Chaa you didn't answer my first question I mean F355, two Mv's, busa, duc, and all the other toys. GEEZ! When I visit Manchester I am not sure whether I should spend time with my family or just in your garage
Hey,hey i still got my 328gts thats at my other homem it lives with my Twin turbo TR8,LOL!. You can come but you must bring your own tissues.I am going to take some photos of my bosses collection, realy exotic gear.
Hi Chaa when i had my R1 a few years ago i had a mate who had a mv like yours,we were up in wales keeping to the speed limits- not,and we swaped bikes,very nice indeed,chassis was nice and the engine,nice to see the rear tyre over to the edge-youve been riding it good,i gave it up due to things getting tighter with speeding-witch i do think is wrong,and there are more vehicles on the road now,and with a bike you have to think so fast its unreal, never looked how fast we went just looked at the road ahead,magazines tell us all how fast stuff is,its how we all drive and ride is were we feel our vehicles,enjoy it chaa nice bike, cheers Dale.
o my! Did I just see a slice of heaven, oh indeedie! You are da man, period! Please don't hesitate to race it and make a video, I have a nice limewire video collection all the time, mostly of the Hayabusa. I tried to load a video but they are all too big for this chat site. I'll keep working on it. In the mean time, just PM me and I'll send you some. Be Safe.
You know, out of all my bikes i enjoy rideing my 1999 unrestricted (205mph) Hayabusa the most and the best, Its an ugly SOB, but i love it the big B****D. I have never known a woman to ride a Busa....cool.
Charlie, How fast are the busa's really? I was looking today a one to replace my CBR. Are they really as insane as they say? Also looks more comfortable than the r1's/blades... Does the extra weight help you get the power down easier P.s Nice MV, I sold mine last week & regretting it already
Badapple if you have never riden a Busa,trust me dude, you have never riden a fast bike.It will tear your F***g arms of. The acceleration is....and i chose my words very carefully,,,,AWSOME!!. It also handels great,its large size is also indeed very low so it feels firm and fantastic in the courners.It is very comfortable more so than my other bikes, not so on the wrists, I urge you to test ride one, then you will be converted.Its an awsome machine. Ihave taken mine which is unrestricted to 195mph and it got there quicker than i could say "Mootthherrr Fuu.....!!!If you are a lighter rider it will wheel spin.I am very interested in the turbo kit, which leaves the standard Busa wanting at 350-400 bh..mother F***ig horse power!!!!
Charlie, Awesome bike!! Me, I'm just a humble BMW R80GS owner...here's a picture of my bike in the Czech countryside last summer: www.volny.cz/pavelj69/pictures/dscf10011cs.jpg Would love to see (and hear) your bike on the road one day! Mine goes in for its "Single Vehicle Type Approval" test on Tuesday morning, and I hope the bureaucrats allow me to ride it after its five month hibernation! Cheers, MARK
Haha, i'll get a ride then... Only 11st, so hope it won't be too bad. Don't the turbo's take them to like 220mph? Here are some pics of mine.

Hey Badapple! What the F**KS wrong with you dude, you had that and you sold it!!!!!! I should catch a plane just to throttle you dude.LOL!
Hi Chaa if you want to turbo charge the hayabusa contact these guys they are getting 400 BHP out of this engine in mini's,(rear mounted road leagal) they do the bike convesion to, http://www.holeshotracing.co.uk/ Hope this helps, cheers Dale.
Nah I loved it, just want something for trackdays this year that won't matter some much if get's damaged & has better supply of parts. What do your exhausts sound like? Because casoli will debaffle your existing ones & they sound unbelievable.
Dale, Men & Motors did a programme on that holeshotracing They took one of there bike's up bruntingtonthorpe & it clocked some ridiculous speeds. The put a camera on the speedo's too. Totally awesome..
Beautiful bike, Charlie. I have always loved MV's. You'll have to let us know what the 1000 is like. I am in the process of getting an F4S. They are great, great bikes, even if they are a little underpowered for a 4 cyl. They make great street bikes.
