The Superveloce 98 Edizione Limitata

Steeped in history and echoing a legacy of passion and innovation, MV Agusta presents a masterpiece: the Superveloce 98 Edizione Limitata.

The Superveloce 98 Edizione Limitata emerges, celebrating eighty years of MV Agusta’s enduring spirit and dedication to innovation. During wartime struggles during the early 1940s in Italy, Domenico Agusta envisioned a means to simplify mobility. That vision led to the birth of MV Agusta’s first engine in 1943, a compact 98 cc single-cylinder marvel. Though its initial launch was halted by wartime challenges, the MV 98 soon graced the streets in a unique shade of burgundy. Whether it was a nod to Giovanni Agusta’s aristocratic roots or a personal touch, this distinct hue added unparalleled elegance to the bike during an otherwise grim era.

Limited to 300 units, this machine dazzles in its “Rosso Verghera” color scheme, an homage to the original MV 98. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the Superveloce 98 Edizione Limitata wears its heritage proudly with the “98 Edizione Limitata” signature prominently displayed alongside the iconic Italian flag, symbolizing its deep-rooted “Made in Italy” origins.

While MV Agusta celebrates its illustrious past with the Superveloce 98 Edizione Limitata, it doesn’t shy away from pushing technological boundaries. At the heart of this machine lies the formidable 798 cc inline-three cylinder engine, packing a punch with 147 hp. It boasts various features, from a counter-rotating crankshaft and titanium valves to DLC-coated cams, exemplifying efficiency and performance. When paired with the racing kit, the bike’s weight plunges to 364 pounds, reinforcing its race-ready credentials.

Adorned with spoked wheels in a gold finish, a recalibrated Continental MK100 ABS, and high-performance Pirelli Diablo Rosso IV Corsa tires, the bike screams superiority. Add the 5.5″ color TFT instrument panel, Ride by Wire, and Mobisat anti-theft satellite positioning, and you’ve got a bike that seamlessly marries past and present.

For the lucky few, owning a piece of this limited Superveloce 98 series is more than just possessing a motorcycle; it’s about being part of MV Agusta’s storied legacy. And while most units have already found homes among the brand’s ardent collectors, the Superveloce 98 Edizione Limitata legend will undoubtedly roar on for generations to come.
