Honestly Lucky, in the mags it just looks like another MV.

In the flesh, my god its stunning!!!!!! A room full of Benellis, MV's, my old mans CBX pro link and lots of other goodness, it stood out like a UV light.

Proper hot, and much comfier than the old one too.

Dammit I want a ride

That is sexual for £14k I think we may see a few mor eon the roads.

I would have tried to engineer the yolk nut thing to line up though id possible... probably be an extra £1k though.

The original MV F4 was designed by Massimo Tamburini, who also designed the Ducati 916. Morton was his protégé. They're probably the two best bike designers in the world. Tamburini has now retired and Morton has taken over as chief designer at M4. So this is Morton's update of Tamburini's original design.
