Description of MV Agusta Enamel Sign
MV Agusta (Italian pronunciation: [ˈɛmme ˈvu a.guː.sta], full name: MV AGUSTA Motor SpA, original name: Meccanica Verghera Agusta or MV) is a motorcycle manufacturer founded by Count Domenico Agusta on January 19, 1945 as the one of the branches of the Agusta aviation company near Milan, in Cascina Costa, Italy. The abbreviation MV stands for Meccanica (mechanical) Verghera, the hamlet where the first MVs were manufactured. The modern headquarters and main production facilities are located in Varese, Italy, on the shores of Lake Varese.
During the 1950s and 1960s, MV Agusta produced small-displacement motorcycles, but as sales began to decline, the company decided to focus more on larger-displacement motorcycles. So it created a 250 cc model, a 350 cc model, then a 600 cc four-cylinder motorcycle which was later upgraded and transformed into a 750 cc motorcycle called the 750 Sport (1970). The most notable small displacement motorcycles of the 1950s and 1960s manufactured by MV Agusta were the Pullman, Turismo Rapido and Raid.
One of the most important MV Agusta models of the time, the 750 Sport, which was a very expensive model, was updated and renamed the 1975S America. Additionally, it was introduced to the American market in order to help the company grow in the American industry. Due to the death of two of its owners, Vincenzo Agusta (1958) and Domenico Agusta (1971), the company began to experience financial problems and was therefore closed in 1980.
However, in 1997 MV Agusta was purchased by Cagiva who relaunched the brand and released an entirely new range of MV Agusta 750cc models, dubbed the F4 750. The series was discontinued in 2004 when the company was purchased by Proton, a Malaysian car manufacturer.
Although most people predicted a bright future for the newly acquired company, Proton decided to sell it, and Agusta found itself once again in the Italian fold, purchased by the financing company GEVI SpA.
