Motorcycle specifications MV-AgustaF4 1000 Claudio 2019 The master's passion

We'll have to wait a little longer for a new F4... but not for a special series. Intoxicated by the customary fact, the little firm from Varese has once again decided to strike hard, thundering and charismatic with its new CLAUDIO livery.
Once again, MV-Agusta has paid tribute to the man who made its history, as well as to some of the finest motorcycles in modern production. Claudio Castiglioni.
Once again, the F4 is sublimated in an attempt to live up to the master's name. To feel invested with the excellence he brought to his creations.
Once again, the Italian motorcycle school has produced a delectable little work of art.
Once again, a totally decadent machine reserved for an elite who will snatch it up in no time.
this F4 Claudio will give enthusiasts a taste of déjà-vu. This is only to be expected, as the styling is very much in line with that of the F4 1080 CC, the first to be revered by its sovereign in 2007. The color is still deep and dark. The red edgings have turned golden. But the sense of menace and luxury remains the same. A beautiful object, bordering on magnificent.
We've done everything right to justify its abominable price - as yet undisclosed, and our estimate is certainly on the low side - and its exceptional nature. Manufactured in a limited edition of just 100, it will bear witness to this with a plaque on the upper fork crown. Among the most striking features are the BST carbon wheels. So celestial you could lift them with a finger; so captivating with their black and mixed gold finish.
You could use a little titanium for the rest! Which this F4 uses for some of the screws and bolts and the SC Project exhaust. Each silencer is laser-engraved with the Claudio logo.
A little aluminum too? Yes, but CNC machined. The same goes for the open-work fork crown, reinforced and lightened. And also the fuel tank caps (fuel, brake, clutch), control levers, height-adjustable footrests, convenience plates and rear wheel nut.
The tour ends with that magnificent stitched seat... or its ultra-complete color TFT screen... or its immortal design.
a thoroughbred, racy machine, the F4 Claudio has a duty to split track and performance. That's why it's available in an RC version. What could be better than a Superbike-approved bike to play with this rocket. For the CC edition, MV pumped up the block to 1078 cm3 to get close to 200 hp - a madness at the time. Here, the 4-cylinder spits out no less than 205 horsepower, but can (must) be increased to 212 once the racing exhaust and ECU are installed. A crackling figure reached at 13,450 rpm. Torque is equally generous, with 11.7 mkg extracted at 9,500 rpm.
This engine is a monster, with titanium connecting rods, a specially lightened and balanced crankshaft, a maximum revs of 14,200 rpm, and the help of advanced electronics.
Controlled by a series of racing buttons on the left thumb, as in World Superbike, the riding aids comprise 4 fully adjustable riding modes (throttle, engine braking, engine behavior, maximum torque, cut-off, etc.), a control system for the engine and a control system for the engine....), 8-step traction control, Up&Down shifter, Bosch 9+ ABS with anti-wheeling, multi-axis inertial platform and data acquisition with integrated GPS and dedicated software.
the top-of-the-range F4 Claudio is based on the RC engine and chassis. A taut tool for formidable performance and high standards. As always, the frame is made up of a tubular steel trellis connected to aluminum plates, which are hard to fault. Suspension is provided by Öhlins, with a 43 mm NIX 30 inverted fork, TTX36 rear monoshock and steering damper. All these components are, of course, fully adjustable. Braking is provided by Brembo Stylema calipers, the evolution of the famous M50, around 320 mm T-Drive tracks.
for many, this MV-Agusta F4 Claudio will belong on the fantasy shelf. The price will help a lot. But before saving up for 10 years or categorizing it as untouchable, let's take a look at the engraving on the airbox cover. Strange, isn't it, this elephant seen in profile?
It's another symbol. That of the Cagiva brand. Its logo is none other than this stylized pachyderm, and Cagiva is nothing less than an emblematic manufacturer created by Giovanni Castiglioni, Claudio's father.
