Today I went up to carrolton to get a wardrobe I got of craigslist, and on the way back home I saw it. An MV Agusta F4 R 312...and I went nuts I was so excited!

haha my mom and my sister were in the truck with me and started patting my back telling me it was ok.

hell yeah I hear ya there NOBODY could contain all the drool over those.

There's a dude with one of those I see around from time to time. He has an Akrapovic exhuast on it, which while sounding as bad ass as anything I've ever heard, is no where near as well aesthetically suited to the bike as the stock set up. The riding position looks awful for the street though.

You think so? I didn't think it looked much different from your average jap, but of course I only saw him riding up to the stop light.

One of my riding buddies has the "Senna" model MV.
Beautiful bike. It was meant for big tracks (steers slow)....in the tight stuff I whoop him with my 85 hp Ducati ...pisses him off every time. The FZR (with proper suspension) would definitely keep up with an MV in the twisties.

Maybe he's got aftermarket rear sets then. His heals look like they're right under his ass. The pegs are definitely way higher than the fizzer (which has very low pegs by modern standards). It's also pretty long between the seat and handle bars but then that's the way all the modern bikes are too. The fizzer's position is border line too aggressive for me though so I'm probably not the best judge.

The phrase "with equally skilled riders" is lost on this...

Obviously you know how to ride better than him. If you took it to a normal track I doubt you'd be keeping up.


and your buddies Senna model...
