VISORDOWN broke the news nearly two months ago about the secret plans by MV Agusta top-brass to build a 675cc triple, and now the rest of the biking world has caught up with us.

This is the upcoming cover of Italian magazine Motociclismo, don’t get too excited though, it’s only a computer-generated image with the mag claiming around 135bhp from the bike and a 160kg weight.

If it looks like that though, it’ll be the world’s best selling middleweight by some considerable margin.

Fingers crossed.

135bhp?

 As can be seen plain as day on the cover it says 140CV, ie 140 hp.

Why the need to feed us false information when the evidence is clear to see in the picture?

"with the mag claiming around 135bhp from the bike and a 160kg weight. "

They dont say its spot on 135 - I'd say 140 is around 135 - why are you so worked up over it anyway?
