After fifteen years the importer finally decided to listen to me and he took the MV F4 Brutale for a ride and it stopped on him on the way to Gosford (before New Castle). The diagnosis? The alternator was overheating be aims at 110 km / hr the Engine was revving at 6500 RPM. $2800.00 Australian. Not under warranty? No. Why did it take you fifteen years to rectify? I do not know. Would I buy anything Italian? No on your life. I will buy American, Japanese, Australian or British. At least the warrantees are real.
We purchased a new MV Agusta at a cost of $30,000.00 and it is so unreliable that we can only ride it on short distances. The dealers and importers etc closed their doors. At one time they had the MV Agusta in their workshop for three years. It has cost us thousands. I would never buy a MV Agusta again.
David Barrel, we had two new computers installed at a cost of $3,000.00 each. I have spoken to experts at the Moto GP and at the WSBK Races at Phillip Island (I am a Flag Marshall at the motorcycle races. I was informed that the Fuel sensors are not adequate for the function that they are to performe. The dealer / importer will not use after market and if we pay for the parts they will stop talking to us. Why is the person selling a $30,000.00 motorcycle for eight thousand? In Australia they are not selling because of reliability. The dealer / importer has had it since November 2019. They only just noticed that the rear tyre is very old and it still has all the tread. They do not understand the inbuilt faults. The New South Wales, Australia CTTT (Consumer Trader and Tennancy Tribunal) said that the motorcycle is not fit for purpose.
