I thought Italians were good at styling. That looks like one bike - but with an awful fairing ... and an odd seat unit

I usually love the shape of MVs,but for my tastes they dropped the ball with this one.

It's an odd mix of modern and retro which doesn't gel.

I almost love it, just because it's different to anything else out there mostly.

Yup exactly that for me too, a bit of a dog's dinner IMO.
The Brutale 1000 RR Serie Oro is still my favourite current bike in terms of looks, and the matt /satin red paint on it, whilst it looks a bit dul in pictures is gorgeous in the metal IMO

I love it, but it does look a bit gash in the tricolour scheme pictured.

The Blue Alpine special edition is very nice.

The blue one is a million times nicer, the red one disturbs me!

Useless is one word for it. What use does a colour scheme serve though for example?

There is one of those there and a bunch of the other 800's with round headlights, there might be a blue one, I didn't really look.

The red suede seat on the one in the picture is the best thing about it.

Speaking of colourschemes though, obvious as it may be the classic MV scheme looks pretty good! If I was in the market for a new sportsbike this would be high on the list.

I like that. Especially in the blue KFB put up.
