More information about new MV Agusta F3

I was pleasantly surprised yesterday with more information about new MV Agusta F3. The news spread all over the web quickly, but I decided to wait if someone published even more details, but now that’s it.

I’ve already written about new F3, check it out here:  MV Agusta F3 – an exotic spice for the 600 class , so this time I will just add few words, and hopefully make your day with some new photos I found.

Here’s what it’s all about: new F3’s engine is producing 135HP (100.8 kW) at 15000 rpm !! For 675cc 3-cylinder engine that’s a lot – and the best in the class! The only thing that worries me is that producing such power at and revving so high will give you tiny power/torque at low/medium rpms. Hm, it’s possible MV's engineers have solved out this problem, but we shall wait and see.

They also claim it will be most compact and lightest bike in the class, and I believe them.

The price is not defined yet, as well as release date. While most websites says it should be released in 2012, MV Agusta’s website for UK says that it is coming to UK this year. Go figure!

For the end, as I promised, there is a nice collection of MV Agusta F3 photos. I thought that Picasa Web is a better online tool for browsing the photo gallery, so just click on the photo below and go straight to my MV Agusta F3 photo album.

Reader Submittal. Honda Exotica. NSR250SP

I've got a few very regular contributors to the board and Mike Skelton is cementing himself as one of the best. Today he sends in this drippingly exotic Honda NSR 250 SP.

Mike Writes:

Steve,

A friend that I have known for 30+ years emailed me and told me that he had sold his 1993 Honda NSR250SP on Ebay, one of 900 made. Originally a Japanese model only, somehow it got registered in the states years ago and my friend has owned it for 8.5 years. It needed to go so he could finish restoring his Lotus.

I HAD to get some pictures for MPOTD, and I shot them in the large format that you request. The new owner has 6 other motorcycles, only one a 4 Stroke, and he races a RD400. From Virginia I think.

Note the original dealer decal on the tail section.
Enjoy and post away!
When do I get my MPOTD Contributing Photographer hat?? lol!

Mike if it was a paying job I'd give you a raise! Maybe we need to start thinking about hat and T-shirts for our "field corespondents"!! Hmmmm... I'm going to give that some serious thought. Stay tuned!
