MV Agusta has announced the launch and opening of bookings for the limited edition F3 RC. The supersport motorcycle is available at Rs 19.73 lakh (ex-showroom Pune). The RC will be available in by November first week.
As soon as there is talk of something being limited edition, the first question that comes up is how limited? So there will be only 250 of these motorcycles in the world and nine in India. Five of which have already been spoken for. RC stands for Reparto Corse, and is a racing version of the brand’s most popular bike, the F3. The F3 RC is also the last assortment manufactured under AMG (high performance brand of Mercedes-Benz) branding. Each bike is autographed by Jules Cluzel and Lorenzo Zanett (racers for MV Agusta’s Supersport World Championship team) with a plaque and serial number.
Mr. Ajinkya Firodia, managing director, MV Agusta India Pvt. Ltd., said, “We are excited to bring in the last 9 AMG branded F3 800 RC’s to India; and have already received five confirmations of the same! The F3 800 RC is truly a collector’s edition; as it offers not only an unparalleled blend of power, performance and handling, but each motorcycle is autographed by Jules Cluzel and Lorenzo Zanetti; and comes with a co-branding with MV Agusta’s partners, AMG (the high performance brand of Mercedes Benz). Anyone who gets their hands on a F3 800 RC special series bike will be able to translate these thrills to roads and track days. The iconic branding by AMG and peerless riding dynamics of these machines underline MV Agusta's tagline of Passion Precisely Crafted.”
At the heart of the motorcycle is a 798cc inline three-cylinder engine that packs 146bhp and 88Nm of torque. The engine is mated to a six-speed gearbox. MV Agusta claims a top speed of 269kmph for the F3 800. Bookings are open and can be made via www.motoroyale.in
