    Twist the Throttle series: MV Agusta

    Caught the MV episode on HD theater yesterday afternoon and I'm finding myself daydreaming about an F4 again.

    Tamburini is in a league of his own...

    Why not? The economy being what it is, a 3 year-old out-of-warranty exotic bike isn't a necessity for anyone. It's a beauty, though.

    MV's have plummeted, unbelievably, in price.

    I may eventually rebuy an SPR nicer than mine for less money...

    Just seems way low on a bike like that.

    There just isn't a single thing about the MV that does it for me styling wise. There are so many other bikes I'd rather look at.
    ...dude you ride an offroad bike with slicks, 1/2 the weight of a GS, double the suspension, with a browning 50 cal going off 32" from your skull as a daily freaking driver - I'd expect anything except a nitro dragbike to be bland by comparison - SSG

    Are you seriously telling me you don't like the swingarm? That is a work of art.

    And aren't you the guy that is intrigued with the MultiStrada?

    Admittedly it is much improved but the MV F model is Tamburini's favorite of all of his designs, the only one as far as I know that he has put his name on.

    Maybe if it were more prone to blowing up...

    Yep, but not at all because of the styling. The Multi is a bike that I would just ride the crap out of and park it where no one will see it.
