MV has produced quite a few special editions of the F4 over the years, but one of the most interesting was the Veltro. It was offered in two flavors – Strada (road) or Pista (race). 99 of the former were built, while there were just 23 examples of the latter. The general consensus among F4 fans seems to be that these were the sportiest F4’s ever built.
The engine is from the Tamburini model (185 horsepower with the titanium race exhaust equipped) and the dry weight was an impressively low 350 pounds.
To help it stand out, the Strada gets carbon fiber bodywork all over – the fairings, tail, mud guards, fenders, air ducts, airbox, and heat shield in a black and yellow livery. Stock power was 174 hp but MV included a titanium “race-only” exhaust that would yield an additional 11 horsepower. Veltro is Italian for greyhound, which is part of the reason why you see a silhouette of the dog on the fairings. A greyhound is also the mascot of Gruppo 23, a defense group of the Italian Air Force.
The odometer shows 22.9, units are assumed to be miles but may be kilometers.
It is production number 7 out of 23.
