About F4 RC

When ‘exotic’ isn’t good enough for you, you aim for ‘exclusive’ – and you can’t get much more exclusive than the MV Agusta F4 RC. First, rumour has it that the company had initially allotted only one motorcycle for the Indian market. But you can be sure that you’ll probably never see one on the road in the country, they’ll be that rare. Second, the kind of kit you get with the F4 RC beggars belief. Of course, its price also beggars belief, but along with the road-legal motorcycle, MV will also provide a race kit that includes a lightweight single-exit exhaust system, pillion seat cowl, a race-spec ECU and magnesium covers for the engine. The engine in road-going spec makes 205bhp (the standard F4 makes ‘only’ 195bhp) and with the race ECU, it gets bumped up to 212bhp. The race kit also drops the bike's weight down to 175kg, which means its top speed is a claimed 302kph in race spec.

The F4 RC is the kind of motorcycle you want to buy if you want an exotic hypersport that you’d like to take racing on some days. However, if you want something similar but don’t want the exclusivity or don’t want to pony up that many greenbacks, look at the Yamaha YZF-R1M and the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10RR. They won’t get you this sort of exclusivity or attention, though.

BikeWale's Take

The MV Agusta F4 RC is probably one of the most exclusive bikes ever made. It has a limited run, and only one bike was allotted for the Indian market. The engine makes about 212bhp and can reach a top speed of 302kmph. Unfortunately, the bike is already sold out, and the only way one could own is it if comes in the used bike market.
