The F4 has a single-sided swingarm, large diameter (49 or 50 mm (1.9 or 2.0 in)) front forks and traditional MV Agusta red and silver livery.

The "TSS" system is designed to increase torque in the low to midrange, while still allowing for maximum horsepower at the top of the rev range (usually two mutually exclusive properties of an engine).

All painted parts, such as fairings, seat cover, front mudguard, fuel tank and air box are made of carbon fibre.

It was essentially the same bike as the F4 750 Oro but with aluminium components in place of magnesium and ABS parts instead of carbon fibre.

Front forks are upside-down 49 mm from Showa, and a fully adjustable Sachs shock absorber controls the single-sided swinging arm.

[9] This model had an upgraded engine (originally intended for a SPR version that was cancelled) with reworked combustion chamber, valves and springs.

The cylinder heads were carefully selected to provide closer tolerances, and combined with a modified eprom, allowed the red-line to be raised to 13,900 rpm.

[16] The bike had uprated suspension, 50mm Marzocchi Titanium nitride coated forks were used at the front and a race quality Sachs shock absorber on the rear.

To use the 750 SPR engines that were intended to go into the AGO, the SPR engines were put into 750S chassis and the model designated the F4 750 SR.[18] Gold exhausts similar to the Serie Oro were added,[19] and white faced instruments which displays Agostini's signature in red, as later used on the AGO model, were added.

[21] The kit consisted of carbon fibre bodywork, a titanium treated windshield, magnesium wheels, embroidered Alcantara seat and side mirrors.

[26] The frame was derived from the 750 cc item, 49 mm titanium nitride coated Showa front fork were used and a Sachs Racing shock absorber controlled the rear.

[27] Compared to the previous 750 cc models, the 1000 S was fitted with 50 mm Marzocchi front upside-down fork and Sachs rear shock absorber with hydraulic control of spring pre-load.

This is the case with Massimo Tamburini, a design engineer who has revolutionized the concepts of sports motorcycles by raising them to new limits of performance and granting them unparalleled beauty.

To pay tribute to this unique individual, I wanted his latest creation to be called after him with a limited production edition with very specific features.

The three versions were:[33] At the request of Australian MV Agusta distributor and former motorcycle champion Paul Feeney, the limited edition F4 1000 Nero was produced.

[36] The Veltro Strada is equipped with a full complement of carbon fibre (fairings, tail, airbox, mud guards, fenders, air ducts, heat shield) and magnesium frame plates.

The MV Agusta racing department led by Andea Goggi polished and lightened many of the internal components, many being made from exotic metals.

Front forks are carbon nitride treated 50 mm Marzocchi units with a Sachs racing shock absorber at the rear.

The bike also has upgraded Brembo Monobloc radial brakes, forged black Brembo wheels, carbon-nitride coated Marzocchi upside down fork and an upgraded Sachs rear shock absorber (compression & rebound damping adjustable in high & low speed range).

[45] In August 2006 an F4 1000 R was used to set a record for the fastest production class 1000 cc motorcycle of 185.882 mph (299.148 km/h) at Bonneville Salt Flats.

[60] The bike was available in pastel red/metallic silver, gloss black/matt black or titanium grey/admiral grey[62] and was 10 kg lighter and 40 mm narrower than its predecessors.

The machines were delivered at a dedicated event day at the Rivolto Air Force Base, home of the Frecce Tricolori.

Frame was from the F4 as were the 50 mm Marzocchi forks, rear Sach shock absorber, Brembo front brakes and cast wheels.

Based on the F4 RC, the machine features a livery designed by F1 world champion Lewis Hamilton, in conjunction with the CRC (Castiglioni Research Center).

Special edition Pirelli DIABLO Supercorsa SP tyres are fitted which feature red sidewalls and the LH44 logo.

The engine has titanium connecting rods, the crankshaft has been specifically designed and balanced, and the combustion chamber is fitted with radially-set valves.

[78] The F4 Claudio uses exclusively dual exit titanium SC-Project racing exhaust system with a dedicated control unit.

The upgrade also includes Brembo T-Drive floating dual 320 mm (13 in) front disc brakes, and Black Öhlins NIX30 shock absorbers.

[89] Leon Camier substituted for Corti at Laguna Seca[90] and a privately entered F4 ridden by Nicolas Salchaud competed at Magny-Cours.

[92] MV Agusta Reparto Corse partnered with Team Vamag in late 2017 in preparation for the 2018 Supersport World Championship.
