MV Agusta All description

Most of you know the history of MV Augusta, with their 37 world championships with the likes of Read, Surtees and Agostini, and this model in particular, conceived by the U.S. importer, Chris Garville, as a limited-edition (200 for the 1975 model year) sport bike for the American market based on the existing 750 Sport; that bike became known as the 750S America.

This 1975 750S America was one of the earliest models imported into the US, with engine number 221012 and frame number 221009. 

First of only two owners was the importer, Garville Corporation, where it was used in displays, shows and magazine tests: as featured in Cycle, Big Bike and Motor Cycle World to name a few.  Ownership was transferred to Peter Garville (brother of importer Chris) in 1984 where it stayed in his possession until 1990. 

As second owner, I acquired the bike by way of famed restorer Perry Bushong (one of the first MV Augusta dealers in the US). Perry and I have had a life long friendship and working relationship and he knew that this bike was for me. When I heard the sound of the 4 into 4 exhaust I was hooked and that is when it became mine.  In 1994 I had the opportunity to meet John Surtees at Daytona and he was gracious enough to autograph the fuel tank. After that the bike was ridden sporadically, mostly at bike events, rallys and shows until 2014 when I went back to Perry to ask him to do the restoration, which was completed in the Fall of 2016. We added the racing exhaust built by Dave Kay, something I had always wanted to do as it looks fantastic and sounds like no other motorcycle on the road!  

I have had twenty six years of stewardship of this amazing motorcycle and now its time to let someone else have their turn.

Included with the bike is a large collection of spare parts, brochures, magazine articles and factory correspondence to support its provenance. 

I ask for a non refundable deposit of $1000 at the end of the auction. As for shipping, I have several shippers I can recommend if needed. Also note that the spare parts are very heavy and will likely need to be placed on a pallet so take that into consideration when calculating shipping costs. 

Anything else you would like to know about the bike please contact me.

2013 MV Agusta F4 and F4 RR – First Ride

Thu, 17 Jan 2013

Our Euro correspondent Tor Sagen is one of the first in the world to ride MV Agusta’s brand-new F4 and F4 RR, both equipped with lean-angle sensors, electronically assisted shifting and more. The up-spec RR flagship features an electronic Ohlins suspension and steering damper controlled by a dedicated Ohlins ECU unit, enabling full suspension adjustment (excluding preload) via the press of a button. Also new is the F4’s engine, with the RR claiming 201 crankshaft horsepower at 13,600 rpm, just shy of its new 14K redline.

2014 MV Agusta Turismo Veloce 800 Sport-Tourer Announced for EICMA

Fri, 18 Oct 2013

MV Agusta announced it would unveil a new sport-touring model at the 2013 EICMA show in Milan. No official details were provided, only the name, the MV Agusta Turismo Veloce 800, though that itself gives us a good idea of what to expect. “Turismo Veloce” translates loosely to “fast touring”, hence the assumption it will be a sport-touring model.
