Making a return to the top flight of two-wheeled motorsport in the Moto2 Championship is MV Agusta, after an absence of 42 years. The race effort will be in partnership with Italian outfit Forward Racing Team, currently racing with Suter motorcycles.
A prototype MV Agusta Moto2 race machine is currently under development, with a track debut scheduled for mid-2018. “MV Agusta is the most successful brand in history of motorcycling” said Giovanni Castiglioni, President of MV Agusta. “The return of MV Agusta to the Grand Prix is a great honour for me.”
Many know Italian motorcycle manufacturer MV Agusta for its financial turmoil and the recent shutting down of its Malaysian distributor. However, MV Agusta is the most successful European manufacturer in the then Motorcycle Grand Prix, with 75 world titles – 38 rider and 37 manufacturer – from 1952 to 1974.

Under itself, gagal.
Under P1, gagal.
Under HD, gagal.
Under AMG, gagal.
Under private investors, let wait & see…
Dear John, give it a chance just for month of august sake! LOL
Well, I did say lets wait & see, no? Lolz!
MV Augusta with 75 world titles – 37 manufacturer & 38 rider(1952 to 1974) is a good bike. One wonder why they “Gagal”?!
It’s all down to management. A good bike need a good marketing Strategy otherwise it will turn into TRAGEDY.
Doesn’t Moto 2 mean having a Triumph engine? Only the frame and everything else is different in the name of cost saving and to identify new talent.
