Superveloce 98

​The Superveloce 98 isn’t just a motorcycle—it’s history reborn. Limited to 300 numbered units, this special edition pays tribute to the first MV Agusta engine from 1943, wrapped in racing panache with its Rosso Verghera livery, authentic laser-engraved “98” badge, and Italian-flag detailing.


Design The Superveloce 98 Edizione Limitata is produced in a numbered run of just 300 units, immediately recognisable thanks to its Rosso Verghera colour scheme. It is a tribute to the technical and entrepreneurial vision that laid the foundations of MV Agusta’s history.

Pure MV Agusta Sound The engine is the well-known 798 cc inline three. Compact and powerful (147 hp), it is also extremely lightweight, helping to keep the motorcycle’s dry weight down to just 173 kg, or as little as 165 kg with the racing kit, further enhancing this Limited Edition.

Technology A counter-rotating crankshaft, cams with DLC coating to reduce friction and enhance performance, titanium valves, and bearings and rods developed to minimise mechanical losses—all this technology defines an engine that is exemplary in both efficiency and performance.
