Cool MV Augusta F3

WOULD YOU BUY THIS FOR $9,000?


We should preface right off the bat that this is a photoshop’d render of the much anticipated MV Agusta F3 (that Castiglioni hopes will save MV Agusta), and not an actual image of what the final product will look like. Odd logos and checkered flags aside though (let’s do the time warp again), this photoshop by Russian website Motogonki.ru is a good start to imagining what the F3 will look like when MV Agusta drops the F4 camouflage later this year at Milan.
Low-slung triple-tip pipes? Check. Enough space between the rear tire and solo-tail for a small Sicilian family? Check. Distinct MV Agusta lines? Check. So the question remains, would you buy a 675cc three-cylinder MV Agusta for $9,000 if it looked like this?

A photoshopped rendering, Moke? No offense, but what's the point of a picture that's going to look different than the real thing?

There's a F4 for sale here that I'd love to have, but the LOML won't let me park it in the living room on the rotating pedestal I'd have it on.

And I'd be real leery of actually riding it...

Well you'd usually be right cause we all know they never look anything like the rendition. But considering that every F4 carries the same bodywork and the fact that Castiglioni is hoping this bike will save the company, I'v posted it. Guess
we'll see. Nice look for sure.

Nice looking bike, but what's the point? It's probably only going to fit 5'6" eye-talian midgits, anyway.
