I have put 2300mls on a MV Senna purchased in March 2002. All the problems associated with the first models have not been apparent. I have had trouble free ownership so far. The first service can be expensive depending on who does it, but it is a day job if done properly. by that I mean checking valve clearances as this requires a lot of man hours in gaining access. The MV is by nature a very compact bit of kit. it is a 'design' / sculptural statement and this extends to the use and finish of materials. Cast, machined and polished surfaces through out the whole are there to draw attention to the juxtaposition of materials used and not to be judged as ...

There's only one other dooyoo opinion on the MV, and that was written by someone who had never even ridden it! I pointed out this wasn't particularly useful and said I'd be getting one myself.

Also helping spend £13K is always fun especially when it not yours! Anyway off we when down to Salisbury to look at a brace of registered but basically unused MV. Seeing one close up after all the hype was a bit disappointing to be honest. We all seen them at five feet under the careful spot lighting of a marketing mans making at the NEC last year but close up erm! The Finnish is just not up for it. The head stock (which is made of billet aluminium I think) ...
