Awesome video, so happy to see a bike assembled and some of the engine components machined all in the same factory and that it’s in its country of origin for the brand..... well done to MV 👍👍
Italian through and through. Even the food in the canteen was bellissima!
Awesome company! I’m lucky enough to work here ❤️
me too!
we are all happy that the financial situation now seems to have vastly improved. If I were to buy a motorcycle again I would go for the MV Brutale 800 (as I would go WAY too fast on public road on the F3).
@@NisseOhlsen it’s not like the Brutale 800 is slow…
@@francescovalentini2932 I never thought it was, Franceso. That much I do understand. For sure it's faster than both the Mille R and the CBR 600 RR I've had-. But going faster on a 'carenata' is just easier, since they work better the faster you ride. In reality, I am more of an F3 than a Brutale guy. I also think it is more elegant. But I also end up going more than double the legal speed limit on public roads. So I end up having to chose between the race track and chaos. So I think the Brutale would suit me from that perspective.
@@NisseOhlsen I tend to agree. The Brutale 800 is like a mid range super naked, extremely fun, sexy, and fast, but comfortable enough to travel on. Super fun!
I am super happy to see the mv factory. these are super rare videos man. thank you so much😀
i really hope the company can become financially stable and continue getting their sales higher as last year. they make some of my favourite bikes as well as my dream bike the superveloce ago.
Workers at this factory must be wondering what that Triumph guy is doing recording their facilities 😂😂😂 Just kidding! Great video! Thank you!
😅
Thank you for coming to Italy and doing this fantastic video!
Great video showing the beautiful mv bikes, pure magic, thank you
Stunning motorbikes and impressive factory. Thanks for sharing👍
i got such a feels watching this tour! it's the stuff of dreams that plant. So happy to have viewed your coverage.
Glad you enjoyed it! Definitely enjoyed shooting and editing it :)
Always wanted to go there to visit the factory & museum! Damn covid! Well done MB! Hope you enjoyed it immensely 👌🙌
So nice to see this Italian shop filled with those moto beauties. Thanks for the video!
Great video. Lucky you getting that tour!! Thanks!!
Thank you very much! Great video! It really is a proof of your commitment to your content
My pleasure!
Awesome vide and awesome company. These are my two favorites. Triumph and MV.
Very impressed. Thanks!
Really enjoyed that! Thanks.
This is absolutely awesome.
Those have to be some of the most beautiful motorcycles on the planet😌
Bob phenomenal video very interesting well done.
This is really awesome! seeing this vid is really cool!
Excellent thank you 👍🏻👍🏻
Wow, very sleek factory. Very nice.
I wish I could afford the Rush 1000. That's my favorite bike ever and one of the coolest looking bikes ever made.
You should see the F3 RC!
Man… great video! Now we can know a little about MV Augusta! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
AGUSTA!!!!frickin' AGUSTA!!!!!!
The thumbnail ALONE gave me all the feels, MB! 😍
Wow wow wow!!! That is awesome Bob!!!
You're like a kid in a sweatshop! Huge thanks to mv agusta for allowing you such access!
Very kind of them! It was an incredible couple of days
Sweetshop maybe?
Thanks sir, Awesome video.👏👍
That was very interesting. Thank you!
My baby was created there! Grazie a tutti i lavoratori che mi hanno addirittura firmato un foglio di ringraziamento! Vi amo!
which one did you get ? How did the message form the workers happen ?
@@NisseOhlsen I got the brutale 800 and with it you receive a thank you letter signed by all factory workers I found it so damn cool
@@husskash wow, didn't know they did that ! Good choice! That's also the one I would get, as I have always gone way too fast on faired sport bikes (F3).
That was really awesome! This would be a really cool series if you can get into some more factories……
fantastic brand and the Truism Veloce is for me one the most beautiful bike on the market.
That was a work of art
Gorgeous, wonderful machines. I’d love to get one some day.
Same - the Brutal 1000 or the Superveloce would easily be in my dream garage
@@motobob what about the f4?!
7:15 I had to pause the video and watch it for a long time. It was beautiful!
Awsome Video. thanks
I really should ride my Turismo Veloce back to the factory. Always been meaning to make that trip so why not this year? Hmmm... you got me thinking now! 😆
Thank you Thank you thank you I just replaced the sprag clutch on my 20155 RR and could not have completed the job without your efforts to film the procedure.
MV make such pretty bikes 🙂
I love MV!
it looks like you can't stop yourself from smiling. PURE JOY! I would be the same hahaha
Some very nice bikes come from there😍
Awesome video......
Amazing 👏
Amazing video that I’ve enjoyed with my breakfast. Thank you very much!
My pleasure!
No ce tour, a mate of mine from back in Scotland bought a Ducati from a mate of his who had a dealership in Newcastle and was invited on a tour of the Ducati factory, he said it was an awesome place and the best hit was the 'finishingbroom' where Ducati employed scantily clad pretty girls to polish up the finished bbikrs, I assume that this was only for factory tour days and not every day but still a cool finishing process, shake MV doesn't do the same!
Interesting tour vlog all the same,bgreat work Bob!
You could do a two hour documentary on this factory and people would watch the whole thing without skipping a single minute.
unfortunely, they wont let him do it
One thing I did pick up on were the white superveloce S, they were assembling them with standard superveloce wheels, not the gold and black spoked ones that are white S only wheels, maybe they are not through from supplier, i wonder are bikes taken in again to change wheels when they come into factory from holding aera.Best MV factory tour on you tube so far ,you showed engine assembly room ,interesting info, you must have done this video last year new colours on Superveloce S dragsters now for 2022. They must have a lot of 10k deposit taken on the Ago superveloce there seems a ton of them in holding aera.
Really great to see around the factory, amazing works of art. Can you get yourself invited to Moto Guzzi at some point? Does strike me that all of that beautiful intricate detailed work to build an ICE will become a thing of the past and videos like this will become historical curios one day.
Now I need one of those we saw.. Thanks 😭
Having had the opportunity to visit the factory six years, video brings back very happy memories, brilliant👌
Best bikes on the market 😉
Hey that looks like the new Hawk11 front light... done right! muhahahhahahahahaha... Bob... I think I never saw you this happy... just like a kid in a sweets factory. :D
Definitely enjoyed making this one! :)
Super bro
Candyland !!
Yes indeed! :)
Nice
Great they gave you so much access. Ducati tour was great but much more of a big factory keep within these yellow lines thing.
Glad you didn’t push one of the bikes for a domino effect….
MV Factory 👍
Great vlog, shame no one gave you the guided tour 🧐
Very 😎
I am very Grateful to own a MV.
Cool, tanks! Would love to own one but no dealer within 100 miles.
Yes, same here. They are, though, a boutique brand and here in Nortumberland, there isn't even a KTM dealer within sensible distance. Is why I am leaning toward a first gen ff4 rather than a new f3 rosso.....cannot be chewed travelling silly distances for servicing and any warranty problems
👍👍👍
It's heart breaking how such a beautiful bike is so unreliable and trouble prone. My 2019 dragster rr was the biggest junk ever but God did it look good. Alwaysssss in the shop
The girlfriend bought the 2012 Brutal 675. The motorcycle was very faulty, sometimes dangerous. In the corner, the engine shut down due to the side stand sensor. In the end, the service did not know how to repair the motorcycle and they returned the money as part of the complaint, about 80% of the price of the motorcycle's points. It drove 30,000 km. He has been riding the Speed Triple 2009 ever since.
well that is weird, I had a super veloce 800 , I have A rush 1000 and in 2 weeks i will be receiving my ago, i have not had major issues with any of them, and i put about 3500 miles on the rush the only bad it was failing to read the fuel properly, and yesterday a turning signal got bad, got the sensor and its good now , have not had any other issues with the rush, i have not had any issues with the veloce and i put well over 10,000 ,miles on it. sold it for the incoming ago. if you experience minor stupid issues its one thing, but me i have not had any major issues or down time with the bikes, this is an italian hand made not mass produced superbike, it comes with certain drama attached to it, like a pagani, you cant buy this bike and expect it to be a Kawasaki , sususki or honda, different bikes different demographic, different experiences for sure.
Is everything just bought in from component suppliers bar some finishing?
not many seem to sell the way the production is going :)
When them make a new rivale 800?
i coudnt see many employees..did you film the factory at lunch time :) ? im so amazed that MV build the own engines which is the main part of a motocycle at the very own mv factory instead of buying rotax or japan engines
Why would you think they did not build there own engines, I am struggling to think of a motorcycle manufacturer that does not build there own engines, other than Bennili.
@@checker3694 .....or Husqvarna 😁
Choice
oh my god
I thought they were bought out and made in China now. Thanks for the tour!
They make a small capacity ADV type bike in China as a joint venture with a Chinese company, I think, but the rest are made in Italy, although, sadly, MV is not Italian owned.
None of you noticed but superveloce s had some regular superveloce rims. In beginning of video
Did you go to the canteen for the best italian meal ???
Yes indeed! Unbelievably good isn’t it? I think we had tomato and lemon risotto with ricotta 🇮🇹
Whats an mv gusto? Never heard of it here in the USA. Pretty sure they dont sell them...
Interesting, because over here in Europe you cannot buy DooCarrrrtees, just Ducatis 😉
Is it true that the MV 1000cc doesn't make anywhere near it's claimed 200hp?
Far far better than the factory visit that both my son and I had 15 years ago. I was one of the first to by an MV Agusta f4 back in 2000. So mid 2000s I organised a factory visit. After driving hundreds of miles to the mv agusta factory, our visit lasted all of 12 minutes and we say hardly anything at all😔
Had I had that shit factory visit before I have spent 12k on the f4, I would not have bought one.
Were as the other factory visits like ducati, ferrari and Lamborghini made the trip to Italy worth wile that summer.
Glad to see mv have got there shit together..... Factory tour wise anyway.
And yet, your 2000 f4 will be a far better investment than any of these. I'm hoping to get a early to mid 2000 F4 before the summer. I prefer it's looks to the Ducati 916, even.
Hi 12K Dollars is nothing mate. The superveloce cost here 48K!. A triumph thruxton rs cost about 30K; salaries are low and your a whining for 12K for such bike!
......ya lucky firk3r......👍
😅
QC system ? Does that QC stand for Quality Control ? 😳😳😳 .
Who is Tim?
It’s Tim from Rarefied Road. He came out to shoot the trip with me 👍

7:38 the tires on the two middle Dragsters are fittet the wrong way...
It adds to the Italian character of the bike lol. Amazing they can't even install a tire on correctly at the factory, tells you all one needs to know about this branding exercise.
Best is the f4
As pretty as the Super Veloce is it's be the Dragster 800 for my money. Not that I'd say not to any MV bike.
Beautiful motorcycles and a nicely setup factory....nice to see products being made in Europe...not ....c h i n a ......
Why can’t manufacturers put a proper rear mudguard on modern bikes?
Most of that equipment came from Harley Davidson during the short time they owned MV.
Hopefully it will stay Italian 100% and not being sold like happened to Ducati
it's russian bloody capital company, directed by russians
'Dragster' tag is more appropriate on a child's bicycle. What were they thinking?
MV should consider building something for the road, rather than building only track oriented bikes...😏😏😏😏😏
Keep your eyes peeled mate - there’s stuff in the works
You're the man! @motobob
I always loved and wanted to get one. Meanwhile one of my friends bought one. It kept breaking down and breaking down without even reaching 5.000 km's. And, I never bought one and I'm quite happy for not making the same mistake.
You are hilarious at best, a fake spawner for sure.
You would think that they would have a few quid to buy the guy assembling the engines a proper chair instead of a yellow plastic crate!!
Now I know why the Italians did so poorly in Fortnine's oil video.
Love MV,s but the factory looks so primitive compared to the video of the BMW S1000RR factory they need lots of $$ help
I do think that superveloce is a bit of a flop. I also don't think it will be a future classic. There are still loads for sale. You can make it as limited as you like, but if it's a dog it will always remain a dog! What makes future classics, pedigree and WSB wins etc. Young kids of today lust after the bike they can't afford. Then when they reach the each, they remember and loof for one. 749 R and 999 R are all highly sort after!
Can't believe they let you walk around with your backpack unassisted 😅 what a basic factory, MV clearly not investing the extortionate prices they charge back into the factory 🙄 any idea of maybe owning one just set my mind straight.
You should buy a Chinese bike, those will fit you better 😅
A fair point, David. However, it is a small, bespoke exotica brand at the end of the day, so you're not talking Honda factory sizes or prices. That said, take a look around most boutique car or bike factories, and they will be a similar size and level of production line facility.
Boys we get one bike done today ...are fungal.
"Here's the most stunning bike on the market." So the camera operator focuses on the host instead.
Lol, yes, I noticed that, too. Clearly, the cameraman is no motorcyclist. Bob was gushing about the number of Rush's in the line, while all we saw was Bob's beard lol!
Russian murders company...#bucha we'll never forget
Overhyped bikes in my opinion
Even Chinese bikes are more reliable than these
Based on your own personal experience or unfounded hear say🙄
Please boycott this company, which is owned and managed and financed by the people killing innocent childrens and pregnant women in Ukraine. Few statistics : more than 10 millions of civilians have lost their homes, 30 000 killed (313 children). More that 2000 women raped by russian army, some of them just 16 yers old. Fuck you, Russia, go to hell !

Nothing individual anymore!?!?.They all look the same nowadays!?! Becoming boring!!
