18 Australian Road Rider Bike GuideRC doesn’t simply means Reparto Corse. RC means extreme attention to technical development, both
in terms of design and function. It means direct connection to the riders, achieving perfection from
track to track. RC also means attention to detail because under race conditions, each component is
crucial and decisive. RC stands for absolute performance: a way of thinking known only by those who
live to race. RC is the direct descendant of the racing experience brought to the road, crafted for the
most demanding rider.Breaking down the barriers of imagination with cutting-edge technology and the latest engine
design, the new F4 is the best yet. After intense months of development and testing, MV Agusta
has redefi ned the characteristics of the F4 to achieve an ambitious goal: to make the F4 the most
advanced hypersport bike on the market. This was achieved by forming a new range made up of three
different versions, all with that distinctive F4 feel but with a diversity of technical solutions guaranteed
to satisfy different riders.MV AGUSTA F4 RR
