V Agusta's 2025
F3 Competizione is
bringing the pre-
mium bling to the supersport
category for 2025. Limited
to just 300 units worldwide,
the F3 Competizione takes
inspiration from the iconic
F4 Claudio (named after
former MV Agusta CEO
Claudio Castiglioni). It sports
a stunning satin black, silver,
and gold color scheme with
lashings of carbon fiber
details for weight reduction.
The F3 Competizione uses
the company's tried and
tested 798cc triple engine,
and it now delivers a claimed
mega 160 horsepower—12
horsepower up on the stan-
dard F3 RR—and it drops 30
pounds through the use of
lightweight components.
This weight loss, thanks to
materials like carbon fiber
and titanium, allows the bike
to reach a remarkable power-
to-weight ratio of 0.9 hp/kg
for the supersport class.
The F3 Competizione
offers a Track Mode configu-
ration via a kit that includes
an Akrapovic exhaust, a
CNC-machined fuel cap, and
a carbon rear seat cover,
ensuring you've got every-
thing you need and nothing
you don't to go fast—save for
slick tires.
Suspension comes in the
form of Ohlins 43mm NIX30
forks, TTX36 shock, and a
19-step steering damper.
Fully adjustable and featur-
ing a titanium coating on the
stanchions, the Ohlins setup
sheds 2.2 pounds compared
to the standard model's sus-
pension.
Additionally, South African
company BST lace the F3
Competizione with beauti-
ful carbon fiber wheels that
drops an extra 6.6 pounds
of unsprung weight for
improved agility and steer-
ing responsiveness. Brembo
Stylema calipers and 320mm
front discs ensure you can
slow down when needed.
The F3 Competizione's
electronic suite includes
adjustable traction control,
launch control, wheelie con-
trol, and an adjustable ABS
with Sport and Race modes.
Race mode deactivates rear
ABS and reduces interven-
tion, ideal for track use, while
Sport mode retains full ABS
and cornering assistance
for street riding. MV techs
have even fitted a modified
nine-disk slip clutch and
have reduced lever pull by a
claimed 50 percent, but you'll
hardly use it anyway, given
the up-and-down quickshifter
attached to the gearbox.
Aero is all-encompassing
and includes a carbon front
fender and forged carbon
winglets providing down-
force. A lithium battery also
contributes to its weight-
saving design.
If you want one, you better
be quick. They are expected
in America in Q3 of 2025 with
an MSRP of $33,998.
