![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() MV Agusta has just released details of the new 2012 F4 R Corsa Corta. A lower cost, lower-spec. alternative to the F4 RR, it will be priced at £14,499. The R’s engine is identical to the 998cc, short-stroke, four-cylinder unit carried by the £17,999 RR, but with a small drop in power from 201bhp to 195bhp. This is due to a different ECU mapping and the absence of the RR’s hand ported cylinder head. Compared to the fully Ohlins-suspended F4 RR, the F4 R will come with adjustable Marzocchi 50mm forks and an adjustable Sachs shock. It also lacks the adjustable steering head, Ohlins steering damper and Brembo radial brake cylinder of its more expensive sibling, carrying an MV-built steering damper and Nissin brake master cylinders instead. Build-quality is marginally reduced too, with a MAG-welded frame in place of the RR’s TIG-welded structure and cast aluminium wheels in place of forged units.

If I Have the money, would be a good bike to buy ... b'cos as usual it's different and typical Italian. But have to see for How much Ducati is going to pit against the competition for their 1199 & what BMW, Suzuki, KTM & Aprilia are up to with their 2012's as the bar is raised as the Yamahas & Hondas are out with Kawaski almost remaining same.

beautiful bike
i test rode the 2011 F4 yesterday, its a brilliant bike, but way too race oriented, way more than the 1198. but man the sound of the i4, i mean i have never liked the sound of jap i4s, but this thing screams like a horny blood thirsty vampiress. my verdict, wouldnt buy it is my only bike, but if i had space in my garage and with bottomless pocket, would love to keep in my garage for display :-)

![]() Amazing machine! If the F4 R is sportier than the 1198; I can only imagine about the F4 RR.. |
