The courage of far-sighted technical choices. The allure of a brand with a unique history. And: the triumphs in the supersport category. Experience and progress, ace by race, ith the ultrafast derivatives of series-production bikes.
All this, nd much more, wathed in the seductive, treamlined carbon fibre fairing of the most powerful, astest and hardest hitting F4 ever built. Built to race. To weave around Superbike racetracks. And ignite the dreams of even the most demanding enthusiasts.RC, eparto Corse: every detail, ven where of no apparent significance, as been conceived, esigned and built with the sole purpose of providing maximum race competitiveness. And, herefore, aximum road riding pleasure.The new F4 RC is the sharp end of a project that began with the first incredible F4. The model that put MV Agusta back in the spotlight, hanging the sports bike concept forever. Acclaimed, oveted and loved by motorcyclists the world over.A flawless blend of style and substance, his bike has gone from strength to strength while remaining ever-faithful to the panache and technology that make it so unique.The culmination of that development is the F4 RC. Produced in a limited edition of just 250 bikes, ach F4 RC comes complete with a certificate of authenticity and a comprehensive special components kit that provides an awesome power peak of 212 hp at 13,600 rpm.At the same time, his version, hich joins the standard and RR line-up, s gearing up for success in the 2015 Superbike World Championship. Just approved race regulations, n fact, rastically limit the modifications that can be made to production models. Consequently, o have a bike that will be extremely competitive right from the first world championship race, echnical specifications need to be refined with near-manic attention to detail.Exclusiveness is one of the distinguishing traits of the F4 RC. A bike that is unique at first glance, hanks also to a great choice of graphics and an eye-catching colour scheme that immediately marks it out as a thoroughbred. The striking livery – evidently designed for the racetrack – features an attention grabbing combination of colour and trim that emphasizes the bike’s instantly recognizable lines and exceptional technical components. And those who want a colour scheme identical to that used on the bikes competing in the Superbike World Championship need only choose their own personal race number on the front and lower fairing. Performance and lightness: the pursuit of these goals has been boundless, ith work being carried out on every component in every possible area.ENGINEThe 4-cylinder Corsa Corta engine with central timing chain and radial valves has undergone a series of modifications aimed at reducing the already-low overall weight and boosting performance. This compact power unit is characterized by a 79 mm bore and a 50.9 mm stroke. Hand-assembled to ensure optimization of all components and maximum uniformity among the 250 F4 RC bikes that will be coming off the production line, ach motorcycle features radial valves, technical tradition that began with the very first F4 engine. Those same valves, oth intake and exhaust, re each moved by a spring to reduce total moving masses and make it easier to achieve extremely high RC-standard engine revs.Already redesigned for the most recent F4 version, he lubrication circuit ensures outstanding reliability whatever the riding conditions, ven in the most demanding situations so typical of racing. In order to further reduce weight, V Agusta has employed a series of components in magnesium alloy, material used, ost importantly, or the cylinder head cover yet also on the clutch, hain, emovable geabox-selector, abyrinth blow-by, lternator, BS pick up sump and lubricating filter and oil duct support flange covers. All-titanium bolts and screws, hich have saved 1.1 kg, harpen the personality of the F4 RC further, iving the technical content a decidedly racing flavor.And, s you’d expect from a real Superbike, he quest to lighten the machine has gone much further: pistons, ods, nd crankshaft have all be designed to be as light as possible. Meticulous work has been carried out on all internal steel parts, ncluding numerous gear components and, f course, he camshafts, ll of which have been given a thorough overhaul using sophisticated machining tools to remove, uite literally, very redundant gram. The head features new intake and exhaust ducts that, ogether with all the other changes, ave increased maximum power further to 205 hp at 13,450 rpm (212 hp on the kit version with exhaust system and dedicated control unit) against a torque of 115 Nm at 9300 rpm. As stated, he intake has been modified by designing new ducts The 50 mm throttle bodies have been integrated in the TSS variable-length intake system. The injectors are arranged on two banks: the upper one uses specific Magneti Marelli components that offer high performance in terms of fuel delivery; the lower bank instead features 4 Mikuni injectors. To maximize efficiency, ilicone cooling circuit hoses have been employed.ELECTRONICSElectronic support is both complete and effective thanks to MVICS 2.0 (Motor & Vehicle Integrated Control System) technology, pecifically developed by MV Agusta for all of its models. The ELDOR electronic control unit manages the complete Ride-By-Wire system (with redundant circuits) and the 4 engine maps. There is also plenty of scope for parameter adjustment.

The inertial platform with lean angle sensor uses three gyroscopes and three accelerometers, lus the ABS pick up ring, o gather all the data, hich is then algorithm-processed to determine required traction control (which has an 8-level setting range and can also be disabled). The EAS 2.0 (Electronically Assisted Shift) system allows clutchless gear changes, peeding up shifts significantly and resulting in shorter lap times.FRAME AND SUSPENSIONThroughout the history of the F4, he frame has played a vital role: designed to combine the advantages of different design solutions, ts success gradually saw it extended to the entire MV Agusta range. On the F4 RC the CrMo tubular steel trellis frame is TIG-welded by hand; the lower part is finished off with aluminum alloy plates on which a seat has been machined to insert the singleside swingarm pin, he fulcrum of which can be height-adjusted. Compared to the F4 RR, asic measurements remain unaltered: 1,430 mm wheelbase, teering head angle (23.5°) and single-sided swingarm length (565 mm).The choice of suspension set-up shows the extent to which the F4 RC has been inspired by racing – and built to race. Fork, ear shock and steering damper are, n fact, echanical instead of electronic: more detail is, he front fork is TiN-coated Ohlilns USD NIX 30 with separate hydraulic adjustment of compression (left stanchion) and rebound (right stanchion), lus spring pre-load adjustment. At the rear there is an Ohlins TTX 36 shock absorber with piggyback reservoir: manual compression/rebound adjustment is effected via the anodized aluminum knobs. Similarly, he steering damper, lso made by Ohlins, an be mechanically adjusted too. Thanks to the absence of the control unit and actuators needed on electronically controlled suspension. the weight of the F4 RC has been reduced even further.The unique components of this version are further highlighted by widespread adoption of carbon fibre on the side panels, ower fairing, ear mudguard and front mudguard spoiler, pper and lower chain guard, he upper airbox section and the left and right intake covers.Made of forged aluminum alloy, he wheels have been designed and built exclusively for this model. Even the battery – a light lithium (Li-Po) 12.8 V 4 Ah unit – is model-specific. Foot controls are also new: peg positions are adjustable and the shift lever features a sensor for fast gear changes.BRAKESThe braking system confirms the degree of excellence seen on the F4 RR: a pair of 320 mm front discs with steel braking rotors and monobloc Brembo M50 calipers with dedicated radial pump provide unbeatable performance, eight and stiffness.At the rear a 4-piston caliper and 210 mm disc are mounted.WEIGHT AND KITTo see just how exclusive the new F4 RC is, ust take a look at the figures: to start with, t weighs a full 7 kg less than the F4 RR. And that’s not all: the price includes a complete track riding kit which cuts weight by another 6 kg, ushing total weight savings up to an impressive 13 kg. With the assembly of specific components, uch as the titanium Termignoni exhaust system with dedicated control unit, he bike reaches an exceptionally high maximum power of 212 hp at 13600 rpm.The kit includes:
- Termignoni exhaust system in titanium, ith carbon fibre heat guard:
- Dedicated control unit;
- Carbon fibre rear seat cowl for single seater use;
- Quick-release tank cap;
- Red anodized Ergal plugs to be applied after removal of rear view mirrors;
