VOLUME 59 ISSUE 47 NOVEMBER 22, 2022 P61 MV Agusta 921 S Concept CONCEPT fiber cover, spokes and forged alloy rims, exhausts that exit under the motor and a super- cool front brake duct that allows for extra cooling to the calipers. The handlebars are raised clip-ons that take design cues from the 1973 original, and the tail unit is crafted to make it easy to switch from a single- seat cafe racer style to a two- seater. As for the engine, the inline four delivers 115.5 horsepower at 7000 rpm, with 86 lb-ft of torque. There's also revised in- take ducts and new camshaft profiles for a more progressive throttle response, and a coun- terbalancer reduces second- ary vibration. The conrods and pistons are specific to this mo- tor, as are the throttle bodies and injectors. We will not be seeing this MV Agusta 921 S Concept next year as a 2023 model, but with KTM's purchase of 25 percent of MV Agusta recently, we'd expect to see this as a 2024 model. CN
