If you’ve ever fantasized about joining a bike gang, just one glance of the MV Agusta RVS#1 will challenge your notions of patched leather jackets, roadside truck stops, and dive bars. This is a slick, sophisticated piece of machinery that is just at home in a pristine garage as it is on the open road.
Introduced as the first product of RVS’s Reparto Veicoli Speciali – a new “Limited Run” segment of MV Agusta, the RVS#1 is manufactured in the new atelier with the help of Castiglioni Research Center (CRC), with an extreme attention to detail for new, hand-assembled bikes. This new bike is exceptional in every way, from quality components to equipment, design, and performance.
The RVS#1 is the most powerful motorcycle in MV Agusta’s three-cylinder range with it’s charged up 150 hp lightweight engine. It sets a new standard in power to weight ratios performing to incredible standards of thermodynamic efficiency and sports performance. The original MV Agusta engine has been re-tweaked for the RVS#1 with mechanical and materials improvements in a new Euro IV compliant piece of equipment. MV Agusta then took it one step further with exclusive rider engine modes for a more bespoke driving experience.
The light chassis delivers another element of high-powered performance, its steel framework has been embellished with new aviation-grade aluminum plates. MV Agusta has also included artful touches of titanium in the RVS#1’s tank, seat, and exhaust. A specially stitched honeycomb seat provides extra comfort in the saddle for hours of riding enjoyment.
