The Agusta family established MV Agusta motorcycle production after the Second World War. Small motorcycles supported the business while factory racing became extraordinarily successful. The 1970s four-cylinder road machines carried Grand Prix glamour onto the street; the brand’s later revival centred on Massimo Tamburini’s F4 and the naked Brutale.
