At the turn of the millennium, the MV Agusta brand was revived with the release of a new flagship. Penned by the great Massimo Tamburini, the F4 boasted a ground-breaking design that redefined the modern superbike. In the years that followed, the F4 underwent a series of revisions and model updates, though the bike’s incredible aesthetics went largely unchanged. Throughout its impressive production run, the F4 was occasionally offered with limited edition upgrade kits (under the Special Parts or SP moniker) that typically consisted of unique bodywork and a few other changes.
Notable examples included the Mamba (300 made in the full kit, 300 more in a basic kit), the Corse (300 in full kit, 300 as a base kit), and the most expensive of them all, the Viper (just 50 made).
The “Special Parts” code for the Viper was SP01, and 12 of the 50 Viper kits came to the US. The kit alone cost a staggering $18,000 when MSRP for the entire bike was basically the same and a peek at an archived version of the MV Agusta website shows what you got for your money.
