The MV Agusta 750 Sport was greeted with rapture when released in 1970. MV Agusta had teased buyers for years with prototype four-cylinder sports roadsters, but finally, if you had enough money, you could buy a proper factory café racer from the world’s most successful Grand Prix racing team. That magnificent engine was the core around which a stunning chassis was built, with swelling curves, an aggressive riding stance, and a perfect tricolor paint scheme: an all-time classic.
