left it in the garage :( Ill be honest I havnt ridden in about 3 weeks, for no reason really, just during the week is awkward as I always either drop Travis off before work or pick him up after some easier to just stay in the car sometimes, and weekends seem to just pass in a blur lately :( I am a bad biker.
Remember: If in Doubt use Full Throttle, It may not make the situation any better, But it will end the suspense...

Too fussy for my tastes.

Plus I think I'm a bit too old for the race rep look.

That one isn't too bad.

I would have to recover my black and yellow leathers from France though :D

There is only one colour scheme any MV should be in.

We're going to have to disagree on that.

Still one of the most stunning bikes going in my eyes

They are all beautiful. I have to say i think the F3 looks better than the F4 but both are lovely.

MV bikes are on the radar. I really liked the Brutale 800.

Yep. I posted a link to an F3 at my local dealer. It's in matt black. Looks good IMO.

765RS, 1050 RS and Brutale 800rr are on the list so far. I've not tried a F3, which I'll need to do before making a decision.

Not fussed to be honest. Now that summer is ending I'm happy to sit back to see what comes into the market. I do need to avoid the 1050s and Brutales that have been out on long term reviews with Bike journos though

I would steer clear of any 675 MVs as they are no longer in production.
