Made the mistake of popping into an MV Dealer.
Blimey that F4 looks amazing.
Anyone had any experience ?

yeah, Henners, he wrote a fantastic eulogy about his MV F4, was vocal about its hidden qualities, obvious beauty, exhaust bark, pinpoint accuracy ...

then flogged it quick when it dawned on him it was actually pants ...!!!

Hope that helps ....

[Jools]

Yeah, but it's debatable what lasts longer.

Henners ownership of a bike or a fruit pastille?

[Nick Pavey]

Why did he say it was pants,out of interest?

You must be earning lots of commission lately with some fantastic customers 900man if your looking at MV's !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[900MAN]

yeah
I earnt a massive £510 for the second quarter.
Wish I did get commision though ;o)

[900MAN]

Didn't think the price was toooooooooo bad.
Apparentley, and I think it was DK motorcyles, had been selling imports way cheaper than UK bikes.
The official dealers got together and told MV what they thought. Bob's yer uncle MV's are now cheaper.
£11500 for an f4 1+1

I`d have to go with the pastel!

Henners is back in Blitey tommorow but he said that it lacked mid range.He had it powercommanded and set up a Cresent Suzuki with a credible 122 BHP at the wheel but not as quick as my 748R in a straight line.

[900MAN]

MV quote 164bhp in the specs, would it really lose that much power to the back wheel?
This months 'bike' dynos the 999 at 124, which I think is 10-12 down on quoted power.
Was henners a 750?

Still a pretty bike though
