MV Agusta F3 800



F3 800
by MV Agusta



Appearance

The look is just the same with MV Agusta F4 in first viewing, the F3 800 has the performance to match its looks and is an awesome characterful Italian machine. Compact with the latest electronics package on offer. Although only using the pre-set modes, it has huge level of customisability for sure to land the bike in good stead even with the most demanding of riders. It is comfortable for road riding with low mode and easily change to the race mode for running the track in the weekend. MV Agusta have done a great job to make it so remarkable machine.












The F3 800 just have massive appeal, with a note at idle that has an edge suggesting the possibility of grin (and police chase) inducing performance at the flick of your wrist. The bike is super compact, perfect for 7 foot height guy and proportions with my knees falling into the moulded tank and reach to the bars easy, with an aggressive pitch that helps me become part of the bike, rather than a passenger on it. MV Agusta’s F3 is really something special compare to the Ducati 899 Panigale and the GSX-R750, the current competition for the 800.












The Engine

The 798cc triple cylinder is an absolute powerful. The fully adjustable Marzocchi 43mm forks handle everything in their stride, while the shock has a bit more kick than I’d like over poor road surfaces, but doesn’t overly unsettle the bike. It’s mainly rider comfort that suffers but it’s also fully adjustable and not set up for me specifically. Having been on various MV Agusta bikes all day I was actually surprised to find the F3 much more comfortable than expected, keeping in mind this is a full on sportsbike.

 


          Part of the 800 appeal is that it’s almost the same as the 675 (excluding considerably power and torque). The rev limit has been brought down from 15000 to 13500rpm as a compromise but the bike’s weigh exactly the same amount and the 800 is adept at delivering power and torque in a manner that ensures, as a road bike, you’re in a happy place. Torque from a standstill is easily seting using MV Motor & Vehicle Integrated Control System (MVICS) and develops quickly and effortlessly, with the engine spooling up and accelerating the F3 take away with incredible acceleration. It has high end torque and power just keeps building, until I snick into second thanks to the quick shifter and the low end torque is just nice for riding in the town.













Chassis

          The Brembo brakes are also well suited to the bike, offering great stopping power. Bite wasn’t a standout until I jumped back on my regular ride heading home later that night and realised it was actually deceptively strong with great modulation and the Marzocchi forks really help prevent too much weight transfer on the anchors. Cornering is a joy, especially over a good surfaces and the bike is so agile really sucks you in, allowing you to carry great corner speed with the feeling of running on rails. It’s very solid bike and just the rider is really matter of how to handle the ‘Beast’.













Electronic Systems

The engine is remind of the rival, but both rawer and more controlled, with the electronic computer system managing the engine both on and off the throttle in a much more forgiving fashion. There’s no throttle-chop and the transition on power, and regarding the slipper clutch is smooth and controllable, with the bike rewarding smooth rider inputs. When opening the throttle the acceleration is blinding with a triple howl developing and levels of performance come to expect from superbikes, not machines sitting squarely between the 600 and 1000cc machines. The joined by an impressive chassis and suspension set-up which while on the firm sports side, combines with a short wheelbase to provide telepathic handling.


          Electronics are excellent in that the system does a great job and traction control and ABS at rear wheel lift mitigation are nice additions. The quick shifter also benefits a lot from a more aggressive approach, shifting too low could feel clunky, keeping in mind this bike was practically brand new, and keeping hard on the throttle seemed to provide the smoothest shifts. In the dry day, the bike’s is so easy to control and it would be needed for except over unexpected road hazards. The engine is aggressive enough that in the wet they’ll no doubt earn their keep, especially with the amount of crud on our over-travelled roads.

Triple Cylinder Bike Engine



     The perfect middle ground between torque twins and revvy inline fours, the triple cylinder engine is not traditionally one of the most popular engine architectures a but those who ride them swear by them. Triples are a mainstay of Triump has model lineup, powering all of their sport motorcycles, and are gaining in popularity in models such as the new Yamaha FZ-09.


     While triples typically boast the same high horsepower numbers of inline fours or the grunt torque of big twins, they are a great balance of both, making them perfect for everything from commuting around town to aggressive track riding.












Found in  :

  • Any Triumph sport bike
  • Sportier bikes in Yamaha lineup (FZ-09, FJ-09)
  • A behemoth 2294cc also triple powers Triumphas over-the-top Rocket III roadster

Strengths  :

  • Perfect balance of characteristics of twins and inline fours
  • Versatility; work well in all riding situations
  • Unique exhaust sound
  • Narrow and compact profile.


Yamaha FZ-09.



      The FZ-09 was one of my favorite new motorcycles of 2014, but its abrupt throttle response especially in its top A ride mode spoiled what had the potential to be a stellar and desirable new Triple. It was plainly unrefined for something from a Japanese OEM. The new mapping dramatically attenuates the FZ’s rough edges when applying throttle. Yamaha remapped the bike’s ECU and removed nearly all of its jerky on/off throttle response, though what exactly it did Yamaha says is proprietary information. The new bike responds to initial throttle much more smoothly in Standard mode. 













Specification  :





MV Agusta F3.




      The style and design of MV Agusta F3 instantly holds your attention and forces you to gaze it. The diamond shaped headlight at its front gives it a unique identity and looks extremely catchy when seen from a distance. The aerodynamic design of its front fairing and V-shaped visor also looks catchy and appealing. The cowl sports noticeable lines on it which complements the black colored rear view mirrors which comes with integrated LED indicators. These mirrors are mounted on this big V-shaped front fairing. The short front fender sits just below the headlight of this bike and gels well with the forks at its front. The bike has an up-swept, integrated side and rear cowl which also looks aerodynamic with split seat on it.

Sport Turing



        In this session, I like to write about Sport Turing Bike. This bike is the best ride for beginner that like to go for Super Sport. For your information, I ride one of those for 2 years already. But mine is only 650cc and  I can bet that is enough for the beginner because event it is only 650cc, the bike have quit big torque to make your heard jumping when you pull the throttle. The picture below is me with my lovely Kawasaki ER-6F. I call it 'The Green Beast'.













          For those who want to take a first step in this big bike experience, I strongly recommend this type of bike for you to try first and for the good reason is for your safety. I am quite sure that you will not regrade it. Be familiar with the operation of the bike system and the main think is to get the skill how to handle the big torque and awesome acceleration.




           Motorcycles guides discussing Sport Touring Motorcycles include discussion of Sport-Bikes that resemble road race bikes specification with turn signals and license plates, and motorcycles that blend the performance of sport-bikes with the wind protection and comfort and luggage capacity of touring bikes.  Because of  sport–touring motorbikes are a hybrid category, guides also cover a broad range of engine sizes and types, but reviews state that they tend to have comfortable riding positions, good wind protection thanks to a windshield and fairing, standard luggage (saddlebags, perhaps a trunk) and touring amenities such as cruise control, ABS, audio systems and more.
















           Got a lot of middleweight sport touring bike in the market nowadays. Honda with their CB400 (Naked Bike) and CB500F, Suzuki with GSX 650F, Yamaha with their XJ6 and T-07 (Naked Bike), Benelli with their TNT600 (Naked Bike), Naza with their Blade 650, Aprilia with their Shiver 750 (Naked Bike) and many more. Naked bike and Sport Touring bike is not much different in term of the engine performance. The Sport Touring is just the naked and with the fairing. It mean when we install fairing to the Naked Bike, it will become Sport Touring Bike.

Big Bike Rider - The Beginner's Guide




            Here you will find not only news from us but everything we excited or interested about the world of motorcycles, vintage culture, photography, fashion, etc. .. We hope to see you here often! But firtly, the beginner's guide for those who want to become a rider.













        You may have heard the term “all the gear all the time” intoned by experienced riders, and those are six essential words to which any novice rider should take heed. Once you have committed yourself to the electrifying world of motorcycling, the first step is to outfit yourself in the proper gear. Whether you borrow it from a friend or invest in a head-to-toe set of quality riding apparel, gear is mandatory. In fact, all Motorcycle Safety Foundation (MSF) courses require full gear, so it’s best to meet this need from the beginning. It will literally save your ass, as even Rossi can attest to. The last thing you want to be is a “Squid” (rider with no gear), no matter how cool you may believe you look without your gear on.


 

     When we talk about proper gear, we mean helmet, jacket, gloves, pants and boots. A decent helmet will be SIRIM or DOT certified, though the highest safety rating is both SIRIM and DOT approved. Shoei and Arai are two of the best helmet brands on the market, and we can back that up with years of experience riding with both brands in the dirt and on the street. 


    A decent leather jacket should have Chartered Engineers (CE-certified) shoulder, elbow and back protection (you can find this CE at the tag of gear). Proper riding pants will have hip and knee protection, and boots should be full leather, extending past the ankle. Different gear is available depending on where you do most of your riding, and you can easily find gear with all of the safety credentials for nearly any genre of motorcycling either online or at a local dealer.













        Now that you’re properly equipped to ride a motorcycle, it’s time to understand one. Before you even book a B Full license class, take some time to study the mechanics of a motorcycle, from the throttle to clutch actuation to the fuel delivery system, and so on. This will help you understand certain aspects of motorcycle control before you actually hop onto one in class.

       If you’ve ever driven a car with a manual transmission, a parallel can be drawn to motorcycling, as you are performing the same task, only with a clutch lever and foot shifter. Also, if you have a chance to practice on a dirt bike with an experienced rider, learning in the dirt is a fantastic way to learn to tame a street motorcycle. It will not be so difficult if you are already have a B1 license for motorcycle that below 500cc.


Next, you're going to need a bike.......
