  • 2010 MV Agusta F4



    Improving upon excellence: The new MV Agusta F4 was designed and developed with a single goal in mind: to be the best. The new F4 meets this objective by mating high performance and class leading handling together with styling which sets the new standard in the world of supersport motorcycles. MV F4: Moving Art

    THE NEW MV AGUSTA F4: Pure Perfection.
    Can perfection be improved upon? This question has been answered by the new MV Agusta F4, a motorcycle that from the day of its introduction has been judged as the most beautiful motorcycle in the world. The F4 defines beauty. The new F4 is not an evolution of the previous motorcycle, but it is a new project that has been studied down to the last nut and bolt, from the first to the last curve of the bodywork. No mass produced street motorcycle can boast as many accolades as the MV Agusta F4, which is the absolute reference for performance, speed and raw beauty. The F4 is the synthesis of Italian craftsmanship, no compromise design principles and the application of the most technologically advanced materials in a single motorcycle. The F4 is a pure two-wheeled work of art.



    Improving the already legendary F4 has been a dream, until today. MV Agusta has chosen to, once again, push the upper limits of performance and driving pleasure with the new F4. In short, MV Agusta has surpassed perfection.

    The new F4 builds on the heritage of the previous model, while at the same time improving on all the technical and performance characteristics by increasing the already vast quantity of technical content.

    When the new F4 was designed, MV engineers had a single objective: to build the best supersport motorcycle in the world. F4 should not only be only the most beauti- ful motorcycle in the world or the fastest, it should also be the most effective motor- cycle on the track, the lightest and the most technologically advanced motorcycle. The result is the new F4, unmistakably MV.

    The engine, chassis and the swingarm are brand new. The reengineered design which has resulted in a motorcycle that is 4 cm narrower, has a chassis that offers increased torsional rigidity while at the same time reducing the overall weight by 10 kg (22 lbs). The F4 is the absolute reference for the supersport category with its advanced technical solutions and its extraordinary performance.

    The chassis, which has been completely redesigned, optimized and incredibly lightened improves the dynamic characteristics of the motorcycle in every situation, allowing a more effective ride on circuit as well as on the road.

    All of this was naturally matched with components of the highest level, selected to give the enthusiasts a supersports motorcycle able to satisfy even the most demanding customer.

    MV F4: Moving Art

    MV F4: Design

    The front optical group is similar in shape to the unforgettable one of the first F4, but it is even more compact and effective, an innovative first in sports motorcycles. In fact, for the first time on a motorcycle a poli-elliptical mono- element light with xenon bulb serves a double function of main headlight and running lights taking advantage of the compactness and the reduced weight of the optical group itself. The parking light uses Led technology, as well as the rear tail light and the indicators. The advantages of this technology are by now well known: higher visibility, less weight.

    MV F4: Engine

    A high performance engine like the 4-cylinder MV engine needs to be cooled and lubricated to perfection. For this reason the oil circuit has been completely re engineered. The oil pump is now more compact and more efficient, the water/oil exchanger leaves space for a new radiator which keeps under control the temperature of the lubricant, consequently reducing the working temperature of the engine to ensure the maximum performance and reliability.

    The new oil pan, which is now deeper to ensure an optimal feeding to the oil pump even in the most extreme braking conditions, hosts a new ecological removable filter that can be replaced without removing any other components improving the mechanical accessibility for normal maintenance.

    The water cooling circuit has been completely revised as well and the water pump has been lightened by 60 gr (2.12 oz). But, thanks to the optimized profile of the rotor, the pump has a higher flow capacity which has been increased by 65% at low and medium speed. The cooling circuit is characterized by a single flow radiator with a very high thermal efficiency equipped with 2 cooling fans and with a overflow tank.

    Every single component of the engine has been analyzed, re-engineered and lightened. The new Mitsubishi generator, with rare earth magnets is oil cooled and is coupled to the with an elastomer torsional joint. The weight saving which this component contributes is: 1.600 gr (3.5 lbs).

    Thanks to the relocation of elements such as the expansion tank and voltage regulator precious space for the airbox was cleared. The volume of the airbox was increased which offers the advantage of increased engine breathing and more power. The already excellent performance of the 4-cylinder MV has been improved again from this new engine which supplies the maximum power of 137 Kw (186,3 hp) at 12900 rpm. The characteristics which have made the 4-cylinder MV over the years a point of reference in the field remain untouched. The 4 radial valves for each cylinder contribute to the optimal structure of the combustion chamber. The gear box is extractable as is the case in the most valuable racing motorcycles. The new mechanical slipper clutch ensures an optimal control of the engine brake when downshifting.

    MV F4: The Chassis


    The single sided rear swingarm is a real engineering jewel, it has been extended by 20 mm compared to the previous one which contributes to the increase in the rear wheel traction by optimizing the chain torque reaction. The redesign of the rear swing arm assembly has drastically reduced the weight by 1,2 kg (2.65 lbs) while maintaining the same level of torsional rigidity. The front fork of the new F4 weighs an incredibly low 5 kg (11.02 lbs) which sets a new standard of low weight in the superbike class. The complete redesign of the hub of the rear wheel also contributes to the weight reduction and optimization of mass cetralization.

    MV F4: Suspension
    MV F4: The Brakes

    The Brembo front system with radial monobloc callipers is without a doubt the best system on the market. On the F4 it is joined to a Nissin pump with integrated reservoir and produced to specific MV standards.

    The 320 mm diameter double floating steel disc of utilizes an extremely light flange and a reduced 5 mm thickness in order to reduce the inertia and unsprung weight to an absolute minimum.

    The rear break system is produced by Nissin exclusively for MV with a 220 mm diameter stainless steel disc and a four piston calliper.



    MV F4: Attention To Detail


    MV SPECIAL PARTS: To Make It Unique

    Advanced technology and styling are core components of the MV Agusta DNA, clearly visible in the new F4; however as we believe that limits exist only to be exceeded, we continue to design components that help make the F4 even more unique. The list of the MV original special parts has no end, special materials and technological components of the latest generation allow you to increase the perfor- mance of new F4 even more as well as the possibility to personalize it aesthetically.

                  My dream bike. Check out the video for BMW 1000RR vs Kwacker zx 10r vs mv Agusta.

                  I like the final comments in the video.

                    The video is the F4 RR not the F4. This has the new Corsacorta engine which means short stroke engine. The bike has claimed 201 hp so no doubt has good power and comes with a lot of goodies especially the ohlins suspension. I have had the pleasure of seeing this bike and believe me pictures dont do justice. Its just beautiful and the sound it makes will make you feel weak in the knees. Simply superb and now there is also the F4 R again with the short stroke engine but makes a bit less hp and misses the ohlins.
                    Performance vise the BMW is better ..... maybe ......but it somehow does not do it for me, maybe its the looks of the BMW not sure, I feel most of us cannot use the full power of these bikes anyway. I would go for the F4 RR anyday. So now all I need to do is rob a bank.

                            They're more aesthetic with the same usability.

                              not much of difference but it increases the reliability if the bike....in the sense that more the stuff involved in the bike lesser becomes the reliability..
