Gorgeous. From the article: Mercedes-AMG and MV Agusta are celebrating their teaming up by unveiling a one-off F3 800 motorcycle. Photos and article - Mercedes-AMG Inspited one-off MV Agusta F3 800 . |

Looks a lot like an EBR 1190 RX: https://www.erikbuellracing.com/wp-content/themes/ EBR/style/images/RX/StrikeYellowright.jpeg Sorry I never have figured out how to posts pics here. |

I'd be curious to see/hear one of those MV Agusta triples in person... here lately I've really been enjoying my Triumph Sprint ST 955i. There's something about that 3-cylinder mill that just sounds and feels right! Unless it's a Yamaha Crossplane motor, most 4 bangers do nothing for me. |

86129squids, How do you find the vibration level to be on your Sprint's clip ons? Mine seems excessive but maybe I just need to quit being so lazy and synch the throttle bodies. |

Is that where mv agusta went when Harley dumped them in 09? Or have they been passed around a bit more and I never heard about it? I always understood they bought their selves back? |

If Wikipedia is to be believed, Mercedes owns 25% of MV. |

Steve- mine is fine, plus I've got some 1" risers installed as well. Also, a Throttlemeister set, which probably help dampen things too. |

After 2 weeks of riding nothing but my S2 I took the Triumph out today and I didn't even NOTICE any vibration in the bars! Maybe I was just being a wuss. I'll check out the Throttlemeister over the Winter months. |
