You haven't ridden one yet have you?

The engine (including the tuning) is brilliant! There is no snatchiness of the throttle whatsoever. It doesn't have mountains of power or mountains of torque, but what it does have it delivers smoothly and where the power should be. No jap bike I've ridden yet is as smooth as the F4 engines are. Thats the Ferrari influence there. The gearbox is brilliant also. Snips into gear easily, even under hard acceleration and without clutching. I've found most jap boxes clunky. Clutch feel is precise and smooth and easy to measure when powering off hard. Don't be fooled by the race for big power in bikes ... look closely at the delivery of that power to the rear rubber. Big power means nothing, if it is a pig to ride and if it upsets the handling of the bike. Even the newer jap hyper machines still are not smooth to ride. The MV is so smooth that abusing it will not upset its stability.

Oh ... and no other bike has that 'flutter' note to the exhaust like the MV But in the end, she's the flirt, not the whore.

my mate let me ride his new 1100 Duc and what surprised me on this 175kg lightweight wasn't the power as such (although it will pop your eyes out) but the brakes

[Luke_ENR34]

woo got my exhaust raised today, doesnt scape all the time going into the driveway now. Also found out the exhaust rattle i got is my mid muffler from hitting heaps of stuff, has broken a weld inside it and now rattles when cold or driving slow. $100

Also paid rego $693

total spent today $1408

[gtrkiet]
