This is the way I see it: If you're an intelligent guy, you get the BMW; if you're a practical guy, you get the Kawasaki; if you're a passionate guy, you get the MV. At the end, it's not about performance (nobody is actually going to a race with any of these), but about how the machine makes you feel and how it represents you. Personally, I'd get the MV as I believe that motorcycling is a matter more of the heart and less of the mind.
Actually to get kawasaki is practical.
For racing Kawasaki, for street Bmw is the king (the engine of this bike is other level) but i prefer Mv Agusta; it's most beautiful and agressive than the others.
and for all go for yamaha 😂😅
Mv Agusta's piece of art
I think the MV would be a nightmare to ride in a busy city, that clutch seems brutal, but my god does it look amazing. I would ride it every day just because it looks like Aphrodite. I wouldn't give a shit about comfort or how hard it is to ride it.
Sounds amazing? Lol, these inline-4 all sound the same.
MVs can’t be ridden on the street at all, it’s a pain in the @ss, it better to hang it on the wall of your living room
Mv agusta f4 rr is really wonderful
I have a 2010 MV F4 and an 08 R1 and hands down the MV is a show stopper. The R1 gets almost no looks, whereas the MV has almost caused an accident due to a guy not paying attention to the road because he was staring at the bike... lol. And yes the sound from the intakes alone is amazing! I love my R1 but the MV is on a whole different level, and no one will ever understand that if they've never owned one!
Really wish they would actually list the MPH these bikes hit... Why do the test and not give us the numbers?
gtiiiiiiii
The MV Agusta F4RR indicated 192 mph, and it was the slowest of the three.
I help anytime nah they are just pussys the mv has the most power if I was on it I would fuming destroy the fukers
MV Agusta is like Pagani among motorcycles. Not the quickest but sure is quick and just beautiful 😍
I couldn't care if I could buy three kawasakis for the price of one MV. I would rather ride that gorgeous and rare MV.
The MV will turn heads. No disrespect to the others but that thing is gorgeous.
this is the reason why the Italian motors are the best, the last sentence: this is the bike I want! after say the others are better for rational reasons.. Italians build motor with passion and the feeling of the driver or rider is different, no excuses.
MV Agusta should really team up with Pagani, they are the same, raw, fun, visceral, powerful (same philosophies on performance), italian, beautiful (well Pagani looks are subjective, I love them, but still), small artisanal companies, both with AMG partnerships, both aren't the fastest on their categories, but still faster than almost everything ever made and still, they are prefered for a special group of crazy interesting people, that choose them over something "better".
the problem with Italian bikes are there reliability and maintenance cost !!!! I'm 46 and since I was a child I've had Ducati posters on my wall and it hasn't changed but I've owned many super bikes and and race and ride with many many crazy wealthy riders ranging in ages from 20 to 75 that have all different super bikes and between all of is we came to a conclusion and that's that Ducati and Aprilia Are not worth the trouble .. they are pieces of art but for the money and reliability they are not worth owning especially Aprilia , I live in Raleigh NC and the closest certified Aprilia shop is 3 hours away as foe Ducati we have a dealer close by and he rides with us and at his dealership he sells KTM , Ducati, BMW and for the money BMW owns sales and reliability out of his three ....
but like the man said in the video he still wants the Italian. ..
Matthew Sprague BMW isn't that reliable either.
The thing with italian bikes (hell, all european bikes) is that you will have to mod in order to fix. Point in case, Mv agusta, since the first f4 all of them overheat or tend to overheat, the solutions are a dozen, none really expensive and most are actually useful performance wise. With this, they become crazy reliable, like 80k no rebuild reliable.
Plus who doesn't work on their bike / does maintenance?
If you want reliability, there is just two words: Japan and Honda.
Not any more sunshine.
MV Agusta is the bike we all want to have in the garage. I have MV Agusta Brutale 1078rr. Only 38 years to know what is a motorcycle.
God bless MV Agusta is the best.
mv is more beautiful
that's a matter of opinion but you're probably Italian so of course you're going to think it's better looking
no, it's just my opinion!!!
Scott Rosenboom but it just is though
Mv is gorgeous! The other bikes are beautiful too of course just the mv is a step ahead in terms of looks and two steps behind in terms of everything else lol
red ryder I’m English and let me tell ya kid you have a lot to learn Italian bike are beautiful
1.) f4rr
2.) zx10r
3.) bmw
tudo que eu nao tinha entendido!
e continuou sem entender. rsrs Ele dia que a mais potente e rápida é a BMW. A ninja vem logo atrás e por terceiro, mas não menos importante, a MV. Porém, o que ele gostou foi que a Ninja não é tão brutal quanto a BMW. No fim ele diz: 1) BMW 2) Ninja, mas a MV é a bike que eu quero ter.
I love Kawasaki, I own a ZX-14, but that I agree, the MV is the bike I'd rather see when I open my garage.
They forget to mention that BMW is also the worst to actually own.. Great if you never need to go into a dealership but when you do you wish you bought anything else..
lol my friend has a 2012 s1000r and he hates going to the dealership but he has to cause he doesnt have the knowledge to work on it himself.
Anthony H Is it costly?
He has a protection plan for 3 years, but yes it is expensive like anything BMW or German made.
Perks of living in Germany, cheaper servicing and Autobahn!
Well not everyone races, nor do they want too. The MV is all about style, class, and uniqueness.
I love the Mv Agusta ! :)
Jesus Christ mate I hear you. I ride a slightly modified Sprint 955i and it has PLENTY of power. These things are INSANE.
Kawasaki is still The Best Powerfull+Speedy
As a owner of mv agusta the comment section makes me proud
The one thing you can't put a price on is exclusivity. If you pull up whether people know what an MV is or not they ask you about. There is no getting around the fact that they're special. If that isn't what you're looking for go for zx, if you want a great performer the BMW is hard to beat but if you want to feel special an MV does it in spades.
good summary thanks but your teasing us by doing all those data tests and then not giving us the figures!
I was thinking the same thing !!!!
Who needs 200 hp to enjoy a motorcycle? Not me that's for damn sure. I can't imagine what it must feel like and how quickly you can get to 100mph without even thinking about it. 190 plus top end, I'd never even get close to that. I'd be thinking about a ground hog or a bird taking me off the bike. We have a lot of critters littering the road around here. On a road like the Dragon's Tail not many can keep up with my 22 year old BMW R/100/GS. You won't find any chicken strips on those tires.
Some very high speed wheelies.. At the end of the day they are all nice bikes and basically just boils down to personal taste..
Tom Sykes and Johnny Rea, enough said
This is the best version of the F4, THE 2011/12 Corsacorta. Later version has more electronics and that awful ride by wire throttle which is too abrubt and snatchy. Same power from both motors though.
MCN, proving what we already knew.
My 47 yo godson has these three along with the RSV4 factory aprc, Duc's
Pani, 1098R and 999R. All are full on - ecu, Ti exhaust etc. with the F4RR
dropping the most weight / 40 lbs. Real world straight line - 1st BMW and
MV tie with ZX10R close behind. Track day these are the last three - 1st
RSV4 followed by 1098R, 999R, Pani, R1, GSXR. Up Mt San Jacinto on
hwy 243 from Banning,Ca - 1st - 999R and then RSV4, R1, 1098R, Pani,
BMW, ZX10, GSXR, MV. Fun factor - 1098R, RSV4, Pani, MV. WOW -
MV.
MV AGUSTA ... i feel like Homer while watching a donut..
MV sounds awesome!!!
If you are, you have the money to buy the 3 bikes!!, just kiding.
The mv augusta is the fastest bike in the world ...Google it
Agusta* my friend. And its not the fastest.
+Viyvek Kishore maybe not, but it is the most beautiful!
67claudius yup. It is beautiful.
No sir by brand
1 ducati
2 kawasaki
3 bmw
4 yamaha
And the rest i dont know,iam sorry if i make mistake I got the info when watching on TH-cam and searching on Google
Brutale looks awesome.
MV out front, Catch me if you can!!!
love MV's sound :x
5:39 ...but this is the bike i want :D
1-F4
2-Zx-10
3-S1000
Agusta is the shit you just cant beat its style and performance. Just wait till the new F3 comes out and destroys the middleweight class.
wow that mv is still the most beautiful bike here. gorgious
For me it's not all about performance. I'm more than a hundred per cent sure that the ZX-10R is a great machine. However, I believe there is more to owning a motorcycle. It is that sensation you wake on a Sunday morning, you open up the garage and there is this Italian machine sitting in your garage. Well, just my opinion really I had the money, but still I'd get the S1000RR rather than the ZX-10R.
I can hear them perfectly good on this video. But this is one of the stupidest tests I've ever seen... fastest bike... fastest where? In a straight line, pulling wheelies with bikes that have anti-wheelie control? LAME. Test them in a track and then compare. For me: Kawasaki-booooooring. BMW-Sterile. MV Agusta-Sex! I would take the MV any day, no matter how hard to live with. ;-)
But the Agusta looks SSOOO much better, and you feel like you have something special. I work at a motorcycle shop/service&repair place here in norway, and there are 3 ZX-10R (1 to be sold, and 2 to be repaired), And there are 2-3 BMW S1000rr and they look so ugly!!!
OF COURSE IT IS THE BEST LOOKING BIKE. ESPECIALLY IN ALL WHITE!!!! WHO CARES ABOUTT HE FASTEST WHEN ALL 3 OF THESE BIKES ARE FAR MORE POWERFUL THAN ANYBODY ON TH-cam CAN HANDLE. 90% OF PEOPLE WHO WATCH THESE VIDEOS ON TH-cam ONLY STREET RIDE OR DON'T EVEN OWN A BIKE!!
Very true, must adjust my figures... lol. But I still feel the same way. No sane rider can use all of the bikes capabilities on the street - so arguing about one bikes slight edge over the others is silly. Just buy what you love and continue to love and enjoy it
@velle71 lol. if the other 2 arent faster than BMW, than means that they are not even faster than GSXR in a track. gixxy will loose only to a big straight line. But i still believe that F4 RR is the fastest bike in a big straight line, but these idiot Britishes make everything wrong
MV Agusta > BMW > Kawaski
Do you buy a bike because it has 5 more hp or do you buy it because of emotions? How can you dare to compare a cheap Japanese bike to a MV Agusta which is an italian legend?!
@Bartholomeusismyname
Speed isn't everything. I'd choose the MV anytime. It's just so drop-dead sexy! The best looking bike of the three! I think!
@supersayin1 Come on, the 1199 Panigale is nothing special, the 999 and 996 are better looking bikes, the MV Agusta F4 RR Edizione Finale is amazing!!
@Zavach85 You're thinking of WHP (wheel-horse-power) BHP is the power at the crank, if these bikes had 200whp, they would be producing about 230Bhp.
Yeah, it's awesome.
love the MV, but BMW unbeatable ??? dont make me laugh. RSV4 beats it hands down through the corners on track every time
I didn't think the BMW would ever come down!
Are you guys testing the unrestricted ZX10R? If so, it has a higher top speed than the S1000rr.
That MV sounds gorgeous!
Can I get all 3?
But why did they have to make the Kawi so fing ugly though? I mean seriously, look at the 03-06 ZX6Rs and compare to the looks of the kawis now, sad...
Kawasaki is the best among those 3. Should i remind you? It is the 2013 WSBK champion!!!
bout to be the 2014 champion as well.
Thumbs up Mykell!!! Go Sykes, Baaz and Sufoglu
and those factory spec superbikes are about as close as these are to scooters. ducati built the best wsb for years but was out done when it came to their road bikes
Froilan Rabang Yep
And now Kawasaki has been sbk champions for 4 consecutive years.
Do i really have to choose? I want all 3
The MV Agusta was the slowest and indicated 192 mph, then what kawasaki and BMW indicated?
Wow. Just Wow.
also the reliability and price is a major factor
I'll take the RSV4 APRC over any of them all day long.
the MV is the hot chick who is way out of your league
the BMW is the crazy chick who is madly in love with you
but you are going to end up with the ZX-10R .
that MV Agusta sounds more than an F1 and less than a superbike,amazing machine
Kawasaki bike is nice ( 8/10 ) .
F4 is the top , beauty and style at the highest levels , wild pure . ( 10/10 )
OMG BMW is horrible . ( 5/10 )
+Gigio Beauty? I think pretty much all MV Agusta bikes are ugly. Hell I hadn't even heard of MV Agusta until a few months ago. And whenever I saw one I literally thought "Cheap chinese bike"..... Seriously. The styling is Hyosung. The price is Ducati. Not even if I had the money, would I get an Agusta. My mates got an M3 he's about to sell it and get a 636 AND a boat.....
+ReaLzEdits That's like a car enthusiast saying he's never heard of Maserati till a few months ago. Where the f#ck have you been?
Erik Van Wyk Riding.
+ReaLzEdits on your bicycle to the market it seems...
+Erik Van Wyk Hmm yes very much so xD. Look im pretty new to bikes I've ridden dirt bikes my whole life but literally just 2-3 years ago started looking at sports bikes. This really shouldn't be a surprise since when literally EVERYONE who doesn't know about bikes really thinks. Kawasaki, Yamaha, Honda, Ktm, Suzuki, Ducati(since ducati is the go to bike for "cool bikes" in movies really...) Ill admit MV make great bikes imo alot of their range demolishes Ducatis lineup. But its just not a bike for me. I knew there were italian superbikes and stuff, but since I don't like that category I never thought about finding out more about them.
The MV might be the slowest but, it definitely sounds best
Agusta = me gusta :>
So what was the top speed of the Kawasaki ZX-10R?
didnt mv forget about the limiter with the 1000?
I'm pretty much new to motorcycling and I love it, I just have one question... How come they aren't using the clutch when changing upwards on the ZX10 and the BMW? Is it like an autoclutch thing or something else?
that mv is a think of beauty what a great bike
130 mph wheelie ! That's fucking epic . Fair shout
+Eggy 750 Grease 1200 You'll LOVE my 165 mph wheelies !!!!!!!!!!!
+lou30088 you joking ! Thas legendary shit if it's true
Forget this show and this review! Let's do our own test using THEIR video! lol! OK, so which bike has the smoothest suspension at high speed? Let's look at the vibrations. ZX10 - 02:59 MV 03:27 BMW - 04:02. OK folks, WHO wins?? YOU decide! :)
The MV has the sound looks and pedigree, and more than fast enough for road use.
remember mv agusta is handmade bikes.
Yeah i'd get the MV just for the name
Excuse me folkes a V TWIN is what you want lol NO electronics, NO Grandma shouting at you and no wife condemning you!:)
I cannot understand why you would want a sissy intervention when you are having sheer fun:)
I love my VT 1000F firestorm as when it gets naughty I LISTEN:)
Don't buy an MV Agusta, my bike is just over a year old and has currently had 44 faults, including 3x break failures and 2x oil leaks. The bike is dangerous the computer turns safety features on and off randomly. The after sales support is not much help either, they have made insane claims such as "I have crashed the bike" and "I delebratly used a mechanics computer to make the computer faulty" and I have had to pay over $1000 to have the bike independently assessed to prove these claims as bullshit. They refuse to replace or refund the bike.
I'll take any of these.
as ever, italians do it better.
No matter how fantastic any motorcycle is it is useless if it is unreliable and the manufacture is not honourable and irresponsible. My MV Agusta F4 Brutale will not go further than 60 kilometres without stopping. I may have to use it as an anchor for the boat.
Gatrenzwerg I hope you've personally tried all these bikes first to be saying such things. Japanese are not cheap, you just don't have to pay for the name (mv agusta) to get the quality you expect.
@Elitecobra16 I ride a zx12r so don't flame me , the 05 (last year) zx12r had 178 crank hp , the new zx10r has 200 crank . . . since the video is from 2011 he would be correct saying that was the most powerful which it was then , but for now i believe the new zx14r is 202+ hp at 120 mph and up
how the heck can the mv be slower then the kawa,,i mean they are claiming 200hp and yet it cant ,,and i wonder why they climbed down from the 1079cc mv had before ??
Great vid. thanks guys
kawasaki zx10 the last champion of a sbk thas all
I can tell you that bike is not slow, it will beet any car hands down. Ok it was slowest out of them bikes but it will still do 0-60 under 3 seconds 0-100 in 5 ish seconds and a 1/4 mile run in 10 something seconds, if you wanted a car that fast you would be paying like £400,000 or something :D
These bikes are so sexy!!! But.... The Ducati 1199 Panigale trumps them all in styling and possibly performance! I was die Hard Kawasaki fan but now my dream bike is the Tri Color Panigale! But the only one i can afford is the awesome ZX-10 R!!! I'm torn!!!!!
That single headlight just kills the looks of the bike for me. The rest is nice.
bullshit you put them all together the kawasaki is faster watch duello 300 by testing them singly like you did i can say a suzuki 600 is faster
The top speed difference is mostly due to gearing. Notice how quickly the mv raps out in sixth gear. The other two bikes take longer to rap out due to higher gearing. Stock front sprocket is 15 tooth on the MV, and 17 tooth on the BMW. Makes a big difference. The MV looks more aerodynamic. With higher gearing it may beat the BMW in top speed.
Out of the 3 I would choose Kawasaki ZX 10R... Although I admit, that if it would've been 3rd, I might have not chosen it.
Still, What is it about the Kawasaki Green color? Why do I, like, love it?!

Where is HP listed on there? All i know is all the dynos are 175-180wHP motorcycles lose about 7% to drive train lose so to use round number 190-195HP. I would think 210HP be the ZX14R
I'll take one of each if you don't mind! Love your work guys
isn't that a quickshifter?
i don't think older bikes without one can be shifted up without clutch and not damaging the transmission system
12 years later, The MV agusta has become almost a mythical entity. You literally never see one.
taken from wsbk official, 2012 pre-race test @ phillip island 21st Feb. sykes nailed it both rounds :p
i dont know too much about bikes,but look at the agusta....so sexy..!i dont care if it's slow or not...
