Went and test rode a MV F4 1000R....


Oh it was nice....

 mo:t:

so they get an order?

Yes a very nice ride indeed wt:

White lion, how about test riding a Brutale and comparing it to the monster?

Spider

RESALE VALUE IS make the beast with two backsED!
Make sure you love it with all your heart, and you'll never let it go.
My brother paid $25 k for his Brutale, 18 mths and 8,000 klm later he was lucky to get $13,500!  ???
He was pissed off when I got $15k for my Monster (after 20 mths & 11,500klm) and I only paid $15,500 + orc.
Definately an enthusiasts machine (F4 looks terrific)

MV Agusta.  ;)

And yes, they are special.  :)

Yep - would love one in my garage! But I think my next move will be a 1098 or 848.

Very nice caught a look at a Brutale at Deus today.
Also did a test ride today but I don't want to contaminate the area.

Matty...

Read in Cylce Torque recently that the new Brutale 910r will be $27900 +ORC. The limited editions will have a paint job and rim decals, makes me feel a little better! :D Don't think they will be doing much business at retail $ ???

Spoke to the head mechanic over at Stoney Creek Motorcycles a couple of months ago.


You think it takes a long time to get parts for your Monster?

He said it takes forever for parts for MV's >:(

Rob

yeah not too surprised about that.
Melvin was looking at parts when he was thinking about selling the bling machine.
Also even more expensive than Ducati after market. 

an alternative.............
a dealership is coming to woolloomooloo if any one is interested

Very nice machine melvin i would proudley be you mate if you  bought one of them [thumbsup]
Like to see one up close when are the in woolloomooloo ???

Would love to see one in the flesh.....

MMmmm looks a bit "Power Ranger / Transformer" ish......  [roll]

talked to the owner today and the first one arrives in july. bit pricey though. actually VERY pricey

Yeah 20,000 euro or so .... I'll take two

Yeah, very nice!

That quote doesn't surprise me one bit. [roll]

Now, don't get me wrong...other than a Monster I don't really like the look of most bikes, I've learnt to admire 916 to 998 family and of course the 888....also think the four exhaust tips on the F4 is one of the hottest looking things on two wheels...liking the aggression of the Brutale, but that is the upper limit for me.

That Bimota...well if I was riding down the highway and a prime mover went by...well I'd expect it to transform into Optimus Prime and start issuing commands about securing the perimeter. seriously, that headlight fairing is...a little avant-guarde.

but to each their own, it's the differences that make us interesting, not a reason to destroy one another.

Side note: The store is already open in Woolloomooloo(Finger Wharf).  Had some Aprilia's out the front yesterday....Which i find a little strange as there is another Aprilia/MV/Guzzi store less than a km away on William Street... Hmmm
