MV Agusta F3 Rosso 2023: A Masterclass In Performance And Style
Contents
MV Agusta has always been known as a powerhouse in the world of motorcycles, and 2023 is no exception with the F3 RR and F3 RC (or Reparto Corse) models in the 2023 MV Agusta lineup. While the platform is similar in these models, each has some unique features. To start, both bikes feature an in-line three, four-stroke engine with a displacement of 798 cc. The RR has 147 horsepower but if you’re looking for more power and exclusivity, you can opt for the RC with the race kit to bump you up to 155 horsepower. They share a 6-speed gearbox, a chain final drive, and a wet, multi-disc slipper clutch.
These bikes feature the best in technology and braking and include Brembo radial-type monobloc calipers with 4 pistons, a ride-by-wire throttle assembly, and a reinforced wiring harness. They also boast a 5.5″ TFT display with connectivity, so you can record and share trips, customize the bike directly from your smartphone, and take advantage of turn-by-turn navigation.
The frame, suspension, brakes, and wheels are identical for both bikes. They both use an ALS Steel Tubular Trellis frame and a Marzocchi hydraulic fork for front suspension. The rear suspension on both bikes is a Progressive Sachs, single shock
Though neither bike is heavy, the F3 RC is 18 lbs lighter than its counterpart and has the option of a racing kit that adds 8 horsepower, and includes a CNC fuel cap, fiberglass passenger seat cover, Akrapovic titanium exhaust silencer, control unit with racing map, and a carbon fiber silencer cover. CNC brake and clutch levers are also included
Keeping the tradition of Italian motorcycle manufacturers, these bikes look amazing and each model has its own color scheme available. The F3 RR offers color options of Surreal White Gloss/Mamba Red Gloss and Fire Red Matt/Metallic Dark Gray Matt. In contrast, the F3 RC offers only the Pearl White/Ago Red/Emerald Green option.
