MV Agusta is one of the most famous names in motorcycle history having won 270 Grand Prix motorcycle races, 38 World Riders' Championships and 37 World Constructors Championships with legendary riders such as Giacomo Agostini, Mike Hailwood, Phil Read, Carlo Ubbiali, Gary Hocking and John Surtees. It all began in the early years of the 20th century when Count Giovanni Agusta left Sicily for northern Italy where he built his first aircraft, the AG1, four years after the Wright brothers had made history in the USA. Before the end of WW2 he realised there would be a need for cheap transport once hostilities were over and had developed a 98cc engine that went into production in 1946. Count Domenico Agusta had a passion for motorcycle racing and much like Enzo Ferrari, the Agusta family produced motorcycles almost exclusively to fund their racing efforts so the company launched its own factory racing program, going on to dominate Grand Prix racing in the 50s, 60s and 70s. Inline 4-cylinder engines were a characteristic feature of MV Agustas race bikes and a very exclusive range of 600cc to 860cc 4 cylinder road bikes became the most desirable and expensive bikes available at the time. Motorcycle production ceased in 1977 to concentrate on the more profitable helicopter division, only restarting in 1999 after the Castiglioni family took over the name.

This beautiful 750 F4 is presented in excellent condition and is surely going to become a future classic. The Frame Number 000828 suggests it is an early production model built soon after the rebirth of the brand and the MV is offered with its original tool kit, owners manual and numerous receipts. Presented in classic red and silver race colours with a tan coloured seat, just like the last of the 1970s models, it has been carefully stored in a private collection and is supplied with a current V5C showing its distinctive 'L3 MVA' personal plate and is MOT'd until July 2022.
