MV Agusta Superveloce 98 2025 — Specifications

“Monsieur le Comte Agusta,In this year 1945, as our nation and so many others finally emerge from this troubled period in history, I welcome the arrival of your 98 motor scooter. I have no doubt that this creation will bring joy to our streets and prosperity to this branch of your company.”

“Dear Mr. Boggryte,It was with surprise that we found your letter in the archives of the Comte Agusta. Our reply coincides with the arrival on the market of this distant descendant of the 98. MV-Agusta is pleased to present the 800 Superveloce in a limited edition 98.”

“Gentlemen of the MV-Agusta communications team,What a relief for me to receive news again, after so many years. Age and time have dulled my memories but I have never forgotten this red-burgundy-plum color of your first model. Your great years of competition with the talented Giacomo Agostini have enshrined your red-orange / gray-silver colors in legend but nothing in my eyes can overshadow the first color of what almost became a Vespa.”

“Very dear Mr. Boggryte,Your enthusiasm is exceptional. As is that of our team who worked on the presentation of this model. MV-Agusta will offer this special series in 300 copies. Its ‘Rosso Verghera’ color, crossed by an ‘Argento Ago’ stripe, will appeal to fans of yesterday and today. It is meticulously applied by hand in several layers, with a bi-component matte base, followed by a varnished finish to highlight the metallic pigments.”

“Hello gentlemen,I am closely following the news of your models and these 300 copies are, please believe me in my objectivity, a customary fact of your teams. Limited series in triple-hundreds regularly punctuate each of your models. I guarantee that MV-Agusta has planned a few improvements to perpetuate the fervor of enthusiasts.”

“Esteemed Mr. Boggryte,Allow us to call you Martin? We think you have your place within our great family. Indeed, this 800 Superveloce 98 has a particularity. A laser-engraved plate, with the nativity of this motorcycle, is affixed to the right of the upper fork stem. As with all our Superveloce in limited edition, we will include a specific box containing a matching seat cover, a protective cover, a certificate of authenticity and racing parts. The ECU and the triple Arrow exhaust add 6 horsepower to our neo-retro sportbike, reduce its weight from 173 to 165 kilograms, and further sensualize its silhouette.”

“Hello gentlemen,For me, the original 147 horsepower of the 800 Superveloce are already thunderous. Although I admit another admiration for your next 1000 Superveloce and its monstrous power. I would be grateful if you would not make any indelicate allusions concerning this motorcycle. In my time, virtues were hidden and techniques remained rudimentary. I do not, however, forbid myself from appreciating the modern concepts installed on this model. I like to cite the Brembo Stylema brake calipers, the 14-centimeter color TFT screen, the traction control, what you call the Riding Modes – 4 if I’m not mistaken, your ABS sensitive to the angle, the Kineo wheels with such particular spokes... We could not have imagined this a century ago.”

“Dear Martin,We all think, at Schiranna, that you should admire this model closely. You will thus have the opportunity to appreciate our work and that of our equipment suppliers. On this subject, the chosen tires highlight 150 years of Pirelli. Martin, had you noticed the special inscription on the tire sidewalls? To leave you the best memory, we are sending you a few photos of the 98 alongside the 800 Superveloce. Please believe, Mr. Boggryte, in the assurance of our most respectful greetings to you.”
