MV Agusta Superveloce: retro sports bike, generations and check
MV Agusta Superveloce — the Italian sports bike with retro styling, produced since 2020. We look at the generations, engine, and what to check when buying a used motorcycle.
Superveloce in brief
The Superveloce is a unique design sports bike inspired by classic MV Agusta racing models. It combines retro style with modern technology and electronics.
This model is produced in small quantities, so there aren't many used ones on the market, and prices are often higher than similar sports bikes.
Generations — what's the difference
The base Superveloce 800 has three cylinders and around 147 hp. Alongside it, there are Serie Oro and S versions with better equipment and special paints.
Later came the more powerful Superveloce 1000 with a larger engine, aimed at riders seeking even more power.
Engine and transmission
The engine is a 798 cm³ three-cylinder, liquid-cooled, with around 150 hp. It's powerful and has a distinctive sound.
The gearbox is six-speed, often with a bi-directional quickshifter. The motorcycle has riding modes, traction control, and ABS.
What to check when buying a used Superveloce
Request a full service history and check if manufacturer inspections have been carried out. It's crucial for these class of motorcycles to adhere to workshop regulations.
Check the operation of all electronic functions — modes, traction control, screen, quickshifter. Inspect the motorcycle for signs of drops.
Check the brakes, timing belt, spark plugs, tyres and suspension. Verify the documents and ensure the numbers match.
