The Plus

Just like Abarth does for Fiat, Italian specialist Magni knows exactly how to make an MV Agusta perform better. Magni's high-performance parts have become legendary, as have their custom-built motorbikes, like this exceptional 1973 MV Agusta 750 Magni.

An Italian collector acquired this bike in poor condition, with a mixture of original parts and Magni modifications. Wishing to restore it to Magni standards, he contacted Giovanni Magni himself and entrusted the bike to him to be modified to full Magni specifications. Considerable work was carried out on the frame and mechanics, and the bike is said to have covered only between 1,500 and 2,000 km since its conversion.
