Saturday Morning Moto News - MV Agusta 0% & Aprilia Cheating(?)

MV Agusta UK has a deal you cannot pass up. Purchase any new model of the MV Agusta Brutale - 990R or 1090RR - and you will get either 0, 2, or 3 % interest! Take the link to learn the rest of the details and then get to your MV dealer ASAP!

In the most recent round of the World Superbike Championship at Phillip Island, the Aprilia factory team chose to test out some gear-driven cams versus the stock machines chain-driven cams. This is allowed in the rules, but certain conditions must be met first. This will probably not cost Aprilia points, but a decision may force them to race with chain-driven cams like on the streetgoing version of the bike.

More Afternoon Moto News - Brutale 1090RR Review & New Norton Races!

The new MV Agusta Brutale 1090RR is something to behold - lovely, powerful, and very well-made. Well, how does it perform on the street? Well, let's just say that the Brutale sets the standard in the naked bike segment as it always has. The author here finds it slightly less perfect than the Streetfighter, but at least the Brutale has well-sorted suspension right off the production line and it is much more reliable than the Ducati...and that is borne out through the large number of warranty work on the new Streetfighter. Go MV and you will never regret it!

The 'new' Norton is going racing, finally! Chris Walker, of British and World Superbike series and new Sales Manager for Norton, will be taking the Commando 961 to the Thundersprint event. That's right, no VIP and full access to Walker and the beautiful race bike from the new Norton shop - thanks, of course, to Kenny Dreer. Really fantastic news!

More Afternoon Moto News - Granpasso 1200 & MV Agusta

The 2010 Moto Morini Granpasso 1200 is a lovely motorcycle no matter which way you look at it, but is it a good ride? Well, even though the company is struggling - and many rumors continue to say that they have stopped production - it seems that the Italian marque can make some very good bikes. It is unfortunate that the buying public does not see that as the Granpasso 1200 would be a worthy competitor to almost any sport-tourer or adventure motorcycle. If only I could get my hands on one...


In United Kngdom, MV Agusta is holding "The MV Agusta Experience" at the Rockingham national circuit, Corby, Northants. They will have the lusty F4, Brutale 990R and Brutale 1090RR motorcycles on hand for demo rides at the track, and all participants will be entered to win a autographed Giacomo Agostini MV Agusta helmet and shirt. The events take place on three days - 25, 26 & 28 February 2010 (not the best timing given the weather) - so you have three chances at some serious fun!

PR: MV Agusta Launches New Website

Just received this today (no link as this is not online):

Varese 16th of November 2009 - MV Agusta never ceases to amaze. Following the launch of the new Brutale 990R and 1090RR last September, and the launch of the new F4 at EICMA Show, now the new website is online at www.mvagusta.it

Completely redesigned down to the last detail, from structure to layout, the new site is dynamic and easy to navigate, full of useful information, pictures and videos on all the new MV Agusta products.

The new platform includes an entirely new e-commerce section where users can purchase a complete collection of MV Agusta apparel as well as a large selection of MV Corse Special Parts for the F4 and Brutale. All orders will be shipped directly.

One of the biggest innovations is the 3D configurator that will be online in January 2010. The configurator, much like the ones present in the automotive industry, allows the user to specify the desired model, colour and version and view it from 8 different camera angles. The user will be able to select a wealth of accessories ranging from carbon fibre and alloy parts, to seats and performance accessories and view them on the bike in 3 dimensions. Once the desired parts are added to the bike, the user can choose to purchase them directly through our webstore.

In the next few months the site will be continuously updated with new exciting sections such as a virtual museum where you will be able to trace MV Agusta motorcycle history. A section called MV World will also feature and will contain videos, interviews, secrets and insights in our glorious brand and the people that make our fabulous motorcycles.

Our presence on widespread Social Networks, such as Facebook and YouTube, will continue to expand with content developed specifically to enhance interest in our brand. Our YouTube channel in particular has seen a massive flow of visits. Our F4 preview video alone has had more than 84,000 visits and is ranked as one of the top videos around the world in countries such as Italy, Germany, France, Australia, Holland, Spain, Canada, Brazil and Japan.

Deep Look: 2010 MV Agusta Brutale


Yes, there have been several posts here on the new MV Agusta Brutale machines - the 990R and the 1090RR. Here is a sort of wrap-up of all of the detailed videos which show us how the engineers at MV Agusta put together these lovely machines. So, pull up a chair, click the link and learn some Italian design.

Mostly Photos - 2010 MV Agusta Brutale 1090RR at EICMA Show


Thia is pretty much just photos - but, you at least get to see two colors in which the MV Agusta Brutale 1090RR will be sold in in 2010. So, for the fun of it, head on over and click some photos - you might just find yourself owning one very soon...

They Say - The F4 Will Save MV Agusta

I am not so sure of this, but I would love to know that it is true. Apparently, according to MV Agusta, they accepted several orders for the new 2010 F4 and that will help them survive this economy and the sale from Harley-Davidson. Claudio Castiglioni has even started redundancy negotiations (trying to find more efficiency) and has already extended the Christmas holidays to help keep costs down. The good news is that production will not be stopped at all - they will continue building their lovely machines...

PR: MV Agusta Group Has Great Success at EICMA 2009

GREAT SUCCESS for MV AGUSTA GROUP at EICMA 2009

Varese, 16 November 2009 – Great success for MV Agusta Group on the 67th International Motorcycle Show which ended last Sunday at the exhibition centre in Milan.

Fervour was felt at MV Agusta and Cagiva stand by the large audience, who felt to be fascinated for the first live viewing of the new F4 and Brutale. F4, in its technical and aesthetic contents, is the extreme synthesis of sportsmanship, performances and design. Brutale, presented in double version: 990 R and 1090RR, renovates and enriches the technological contents with a strong personality and the distinctive style of the bike that has by now become an icon of Made in Italy in the world.

The new models have been so appreciated as to collect orders by far higher than the expectations in the few days of the event.

The great success was therefore confirmed with the real interest of the sales network, of the customers and of the passionate audience.

The guests, passionate of the MV Agusta brand, were so many who visited our stand.

Among the most cheered guests were the ever much awarded rider Giacomo Agostini, the showgirl Belen Rodriguez, Prince Emanuele Filiberto of Savoy and the football World Champion Marco Materazzi.

Yet Another Cool Video from MV Agusta - 2010 Brutale Engine Video

We have already seen the video highlighting the frame and chassis of the new 2010 MV Agusta Brutale 990r and 1090RR. MV Agusta has now released a video which focuses on the engine details of the 990c.c. motor. They sure know how to use publicity! However, they also make motorcycle art!

MV Agusta Releases Video Highlighting Chassis Details of New Brutale

MV Agusta is full of technology freaks - and the owners are often just the same - and they love to talk about the engineering behind their motorcycles. Well, there are always some secrets. In this video, we see the new (and some old) chassis highlights which grace the new series of Brutale models - Brutale 990R and Brutale 1090RR.

First Video Look at New MV Agusta Brutale 1090RR

Apparently, the videographer for this video was invited to the press launch of the 2010 Brutale 990R and 1090RR and managed to mount a camera on the tank. I am not sure of who it is presently, but it is worth a watch - and a listen - as this will be the premier naked bike to be introduced in 2010!

MV Agusta Releases Teaser Photo of 2010 Re-Styled F4


Will it be called the 'F5' as has been rumored? Well, on November 8th we will find out. MV Agusta has put out a very blacked-out, studio photo of the front of the new bike. It does seem to maintain the Tamburini spirit and stance, but the lights and mirrors - at least - appear to be changed. Considering that the new Brutales also feature a new frame design and other changes, it is likely that the F4 (or F5) will have similar changes. I can't wait!



MV Agusta to Announce New Model Soon

Could this be the rumored F5?! Or, will this be the confirmation of the so-called 'F3' 675c.c. triple which we saw testing on the roads of Italy? We will have to wait a few more days to know the truth. I am hopeful that this will be the 'F5' which some groups and forums have been discussing lately. In either case, I know that I will want one!

This is the first link, but I am not sure what they mean by "after a disappointing launch of a visually identical, but all "new" Brutale," as that bike has some significant design differences as well as engine changes. I guess they are not fans...

The next is a bit more 'nice.'

I am waiting anxiously...if anyone else has info, I can keep a secret. But, I hope you can't!

2010 MV Agusta Brutale 1090RR and 990R First Ride!

The title says it all, and this is only a preliminary report. However, we see that the new Brutale 1090RR is going to be the mad beast we all expect...

http://tinyurl.com/ybsgt38

The 990R is a bit twitchy - at least the one ridden by the author - and will need some smoothing for production. Even with that, and some not-so-great tires, the Brutale still lives up to its name!

It has finally been sent out - the press kit for the 2010 version of the MV Agusta Brutale! There will be a 990R and 1090RR version (above) and there are some significant improvements. As fans of the marque are aware, MV will continuously upgrade their engine and chassis throughout the machines production life, so they will always improve over time...This new beast is no exception...Have a look at those wheels, that very updated new dash, the new radiator shrouds, and the turn signals have been relocated to the mirrors as on the F4-1000 line.
