How to adapt a MV Magni for a 71 old disabled rider

Definitely a "Badass Bike" ya got there Yves. Me thinks you're gonna' have lots of fun with that new machine of yours. I'm very jealous. Thanks for posting , I think I can safely say that we've all been wondering how things have been going with it.

You will have a hard time beating the exhaust note of an Italian multi coming up in the power band, be it 2 OR 4 wheels...

Hi CJ,
Hope Megumi and you are doing well.
Don't be jealous, I pay the MV with 3 years of pijn and it's not finish yet.
Your friend
Yves

Hi Jackman
My heart looks more and more like a zoo, part is of a lion, but a valve comes from a pig, they put it on during my operation in July and it works well.
The problem is getting old:
The parish priest came to ring the bell, Marina opens the door, the parish priest asks "you have nothing to give for the old man's house"
Marina turns around and shouts: Yves is taking your suitcase!

I am also old. If I was going to buy a road bike, it should be a boxer BMW. But getting older is a good reason to buy an MV Agusta 750. The end of the road does not get any further away. An MV can make it get closer with more safety.

I must admit I was ‘surprised’ when 3 months ago Yves told me about his next folly dream… After talking about it for a few days, he went to see the bike and called me from his car on the way back, at this point I knew that no human (or alien?) force could ever make him change his mind.
Sure enough, 10 days later, I was astride this gorgeous Italian beauty, with Yves begging me to test it for him… clutch lever, toes softly lifting the gear pedal, engage first… and off I went… what a GORGEOUS bike, the musical notes of the triple curvy exhausts belittling the loudest forte chords from any Verdi opera!!
The engine is torquey and punchy, 145HP for 155kg (325lbs) is impressive. What is even more impressive is the handling of the Magny, it is in fact quite similar to our Seeley’s: you don’t feel the bike at all, you just get (verrrrry quickly) wherever your eyes are looking.
What an experience!
Yves is a very, very lucky man!
