MV Agusta's classic four-cylinder dominated Grand Prix racing
for a decade from 1956. When it was replaced by the new triple in
1966, Count Agusta decided to make the Four available in limited
numbers as a production bike. To prevent privateers converting it
into a Grand Prix racer that may embarrass the factory, he
stipulated it should be 600cc and have shaft final drive. The
touring 600 eventually evolved into the 750 Sport and GT, and
finally the America, but MV Fours were always built in extremely
small numbers. As befit an engine that handed multiple World
Championships to John Surtees, Gary Hocking, and Mike Hailwood, the
technical specification was staggering, and remains so to this day.
This magnificent engine was always at the heart of the MV Agusta,
and it was this engine that created and sustained the legend.
