World Famous Italian Motorcycle Company Joins Spirit of Legendary F4 Design
with Complete Reengineering to Make Lighter, Faster, Stronger Superbike





WILLOW GROVE, Pa., Nov. 9 /PRNewswire/ -- Throughout its reign as the world's
most coveted superbike, the MV Agusta F4 has drawn innumerable accolades for
being one of the most beautiful, well-designed, highest performing motorcycles
ever conceived. And now for 2010, MV Agusta proudly introduces the all-new F4,
echoing the same fantastic, aggressive design ethos with a detailed
reengineering down to the smallest detail, resulting in a new F4 that does the
impossible by improving upon perfection.  

Already world-famous for a beauty surpassing all other superbikes, MV Agusta
has provided a fresh look to the iconic sensual lines of the new 2010 F4 while
still preserving its design spirit. Set to debut the all new F4 in Milan this
evening, MV Agusta has also taken special care to deliver a lighter, faster,
stronger motorcycle that pushes the limits of performance either out on the
street or track. 

Magnificent in design, the 186 horsepower MV Agusta F4 also excels
technically. The F4 now boasts a newly engineered in line 998cc 4-cylinder
engine complete with twin shower fuel injectors assisting each cylinder. Other
standard features include a new electronic injection system featuring 49 mm
throttle bodies with a patented Torque Shift System (TSS), allowing variable
lift intake.

Ergonomics for the new MV Agusta F4 have also been redesigned, enabling riders
to achieve performance limits more safely while harnessing the brand new, more
powerful F4. To improve handling, the new MV Agusta F4 features a lightened
framework and chassis with revised geometry that significantly improves riding
comfort. The 2010 F4 is 22 lbs. lighter than its predecessor, weighing in at a
lithe 423.5 lbs. total weight. 

A new Magneti Marelli 7 SM ECU and 4-1 valve exhaust system is also present
with a new single sided swingarm for the new MV Agusta F4 model. Other brand
new standard features present include a Traction Control MK II system with
eight varying levels of adjustability along with a twin-map ECU. 

"With the introduction of the new 2010 F4, MV Agusta has improved one of the
most sought after motorcycles in the world on every level from an engineering,
design, and performance aspect. And now, with the new 2010 F4 unveiled
alongside our new Brutale 990R and 1090RR models, we feel our company is in a
position to show the industry why MV Agusta is known for creating incomparable
works of motorcycle art," says Larry Ferracci, Director of U.S. Operations for
MV Agusta USA.
