“A 36 year ambition to own an MV after my Dad's mate turned up on an MV 750 America in 1977!
My F4R was 3 years old when I bought it fo4 £7300 which I thinki was excellent value for money. It had 7000 miles on it, every modification the factory recommended, and £6000 worth of carbon fibre.
Overheating in heavy traffic is a problem, and the 3X Garage fitted Datatool Alarm has just failed causing the immobiliser to do it's job permanently, so that'll have to come off at the weekend.
With 180 HP the back tyre (Mitchelin Pilot 2CT) lasts about 4000 miles which is brilliant (I know I'm 52).
Great bike, Wife wants me to sell it but now I have it, no chance.....”
