Description
From the drawing boards of Giorgio Giugiaro, this 1977 MV Agusta Ipotesi 350 GT is a rare little beast. And although having today a french registration, it comes directly from a transalpine collection.
But back to the style of this machine. The brand, which was not in its best shape in the mid-1970s, commissioned Italdesign to give an aesthetic update to its 350 cc twin-cylinder model, produced since 1969.
Giorgio Giugiaro took up the challenge, and went even further than the Italian manufacturer had hoped, by redesigning the castings of the aluminum crankcases, and by innovating on the chassis with an open cradle frame. Thus was born the 350 Ipotesi, in its gold and blue livery.
The specimen presented here got a complete and serious restoration, with original parts, and was signed by the hand of Giacomo Agostini a few years ago. Its “square” engine makes it a sharp, endearing and quite insane motorcycle to ride. History and photographs of the work done provided.
