The new MV Agusta Superveloce 800 will be available in matte black or traditional silver and red with a host of electronic rider aids, info and entertainment.

New boss Timur Sardarov says the bike has started production after a month delay due to the pandemic.

There is no word yet availability in Australia but they will cost $33,690, ride away.

However, we now know it will come in two colour choices, but not the black-and-red or plain white of the 300-run Serie Oro.

MV Agusta Design Director Adrian Morton says they listened to their “biggest critic” … customers!

“Following the presentation of the Superveloce 800 both the public and importers decided to accentuate the neo-retro theme,” he says.

The silver and red variant is the traditional MV Agusta racing scheme and includes gold wheels and frame inspired by their past race bikes.

The second colour variant is Metallic Carbon Black on the wheels and frame which is synonymous with the Formula1 racing of the ’70s.

There is little doubt that MV Agusta is the maker of some of the world’s most beautiful motorcycles and now their Superveloce 800 Serie Oro has won a distinguished design award.

The neo-retro motorcycle will be available next year in Australia for $49,990 ride away and $54,990 in New Zealand.

Made on the shores of Lake Verase, the Superveloce has been recognised as one of the Lombardy’s region’s “Design Excellences”.

The region sure knows about art and style with masters such as Leonardo da Vinci’s The Last Supper housed in a local convent.

MV Agusta has also won two “Most Beautiful Bike of the Show awards at the EICMA motorcycle show in Milan and was second in our readers’ poll of beaut bikes at this year’s show, narrowly beaten by Ducati’s Streetfighter V4.

Their 1997 F4, designed by the late Massimo Tamburini, has long been considered the most beautiful motorcycle of the 20th century along with his other creation, the Ducati 916.

Design award

Now the  Design Excellences award’s jury was won over by MV Agusta’s Superveloce for its “timeless elegance and breathtaking looks”.

The Association for Industrial Design and Lombardy’s Regional Government have recognised the work of MV Agusta’s Centro Ricerche Castiglioni styling team, headed by Adrian Morton, in “bringing significant innovation and originality to the normally conservative vintage-retro segment”.

Superveloce 800 is also a candidate for the prestigious Compasso d’Oro 2020 award from the ADI Foundation, whose objectives are the protection and the dissemination of design culture, and also of its legacy, promoting a design ethics of sustainability and quality.

MV boss Timur Sardarov says the award recognises the “hard work and the passion of all the women and men of MV Agusta who contribute, with their daily work, to the crafting of true pieces of motorcycle art”.

“They accomplish the daily miracle of shaping beauty and performance into a single object of desire,” he says.

MV Design director Adrian Morton says that to receive recognition outside the motorcycle sector is an “incredible honour and a testament to the energy and passion we dedicate to every project”.

MV Agusta has announced on Instagram that it will produce the Superveloce 800 unveiled in concept form (above) last year at the EICMA motorcycle show in Milan.

The solo-seat Superveloce is not a new platform, but based on the F3.

It is likely to be a limited-edition run as most of their “new” models have been over the past few years.

In fact, it’s been years since the Italian company has released an all-new model while it has struggled with financial difficulties. Click here to read about the Italian company’s future under Russian leadership.

Concept to production

Mv Agusta released this Instagram teaser photo of the Superveloce.

We are not sure how much of the concept will make it through to the production bike, but the concept is stunning.

It features a striking mix of carbonfibre fairing and yellow plexiglass windscreen and LED headlights.

From the teaser photo it appears they will stick with that gorgeous rear end which has to be the nicest in the motorcycling world.

Up front we don’t expect the trendy yellow headlight will make it through the stringent Australian Design Rules.

The concept model’s fuel tank cap has a classic leather strap to secure the tank to the frame at the front and back. It would be nice if that design touch was retained.

Superveloce power

The F3’s 799cc engine has been remapped for more peak power. The F3 engine makes 110kW of power and 88Nm of torque. There is no word on what the production Superveloce will achieve.

MV Agusta has styled the asymmetric mufflers – two on the right and one on the left – to reflect their racing history.

Riding position and ergos are similar to the F3 800, including 805mm seat height, handlebars and adjustable footpegs.

Superveloce 800 also comes with a new TFT dashboard with dedicated graphics and new features. We expect it will include a host of electronic rider aids.
