The Most Beautiful Motorcycle Ever!!
Aside from the Ducati 999, I have always loved the MV Agusta line of motorcycles, some more then others, until now....
The new MV Agusta F4 Senna is the most absolute beautiful motorcycle I've ever seen...
Only 300 are to be made, only 50 of those are coming stateside, and they are going for only $25,000...I'll take two please....

bimota was ahead of their time, agusta is where it aough to be. so i like bimota beter even though the black agusta is really sweet. dont matter anyway, at almost 6'5 i fit on nothing other than a zx12, zzx1200, and the big beemer.
i sat on a few bimotas 7 years ago and it just wasnt even close to a fit. i was ready to drop 30k in a heartbeat and i just didnt fit.

One of the funnist bikes I have ridden was a Bimota DB4. 900 V twin and weighed about 360 lbs. ery short wheel base and wheelied devinely! Handle nicely etc. Sweet machine.
Bimota made some sweet machines. But I do like the look of the MV. The 4 exhaust pipe muffler looks pretty cool. Except for when you actually look under the tail. It is your basic ugly ass muffler!
Jason I don't feel the least bit sorry a 6'-5" guy. Considering how much time and work I spent as a young man trying to dunk makes me less then forgiving for you tall dudes!!!

i hear ya zhoo,
and im not crying TOO loudly about the tall thing. all in all, its really good. however there are some negatives to the tall thing; one of them being motorcycling. my options are limited.......VERY! i had a zx11, now i have a zx12. god definitely was thinking of me when the 12 was built. at any height i would have a 12 in my stable.
at 6'1, i might have a 30 thousand dollar bimota as well. when i wanted a porsch, i was forced into buying a vette because it was the only sport vehicle that i could fit into. lets not even get into snowboards, cause its a joke. oh and when i used to have a dayjob, i had to have suits and shirts custom made in order to have any decent fit. oh well, life is tough all over i guess. bvottom line is that my choices are mostly made for me at this height, at least when it comes to toys.
i wouldnt change a thing though

On a side note, Curtis Adams is around 6'6" or so. I don't remember seeing any problems with him turning it up on some smaller bikes....

Seen one at the local closed airport used for stunt practice, and the guy said he just got it like the day before. It only had 80 miles on it and he was out there drag racing it. 3 things I remember about that bike...it was leaking antifreeze, it redlined at about 16,000 rpm and it was beautiful.

The Agusta is underpowered in its class. I rode one and it handles really well. They are a work of art.

Why do you say underclassed? For being only a 750cc...it posts some impressive hp and torque numbers (regarding the specs of the f4 senna).

Note I did not say underclassed... I said underpowered. For a so called superbike it kind of lines up in the kissed yuur sister catagory on power. It handles very nicely. But for an exotic inline four 750 it does not exactly rip ones arms off. Although it is better then the pathetic 113-115 rear wheel horsepower the vaunted Yamaha R7 puts out. Although the R7 can be souped up pretty well.
Did you see the Superbike cover? The bike is leaned over nicely the guy is essentially dragging both his elbow and knee. Looks very cool.

Kinda looks like a Gay Itallian's wet dream.
If the red is painted Silver, I could get on one with a straight face.
Hmmm... maybe not.
Looked at it again...
Yup, too gay - couldn't ride it.
