MV Agusta's new 'limited run' division
It's called Reparto Veicoli Speciali, a division dedicated to special, hand-assembled bikes. And you have to be a current or previous customer to order one!MV Agusta has launched Reparto Veicoli Speciali (RVS), a new division of the company, with the RVS#1 its first unveiling
Based on the company's 800cc three-cylinder Dragster platform, the RSV#1, built in collaboration with the Castiglioni Research Centre (CRC), pumps out a whopping 150hp and tips the scales at 160kg – close to the magical 1:1 power-to-weight ratio.
The bike has a TIG hand-welded chassis, and the steel framework has been "enhanced with new aviation-grade aluminium lateral plates". On the right side is a milled RVS#1 logo, while there are detailed titanium plates mounted on the tank and “honeycomb” stitching on the seat.
Other details include:
- New CRC-designed componentry includes the dashboard support, footpeg units, engine protectors and racing handlebars;
- Modified clutch and braking systems incorporating Braking’s Sunstar Batfly brake discs;
- Customized machined Kineo spoke wheels mounted with Pirelli MT 60 RS tyres; and
- The adaptable front headlight uses an integrated inertial system illuminating the individual LED units based on lean angle and velocity.
A titanium exhaust – included in the supplied racing kit – has been designed together with SC-Project specifically for the race track.
Only current or previous customers are eligible to order the motorcycle through their MV Agusta dealership. The RVS #1 will be available to order until the end of June 2017, so you'll have to be quick.
