Italian bikemaker MV Agusta has enlarged its Indian line u by launching a new middleweight supersport bike, F3 800 RC. The availability of the motorcycle is only limited to six units in India. The new model has an ex-showroom, Delhi price of Rs 21.99 lakh. The all-new F3 800 RC is almost Rs 4 lakh more expensive than the standard F3 800. The company will produce just 350 units of this motorcycle worldwide. The price of the bike also includes "Racing Kit", which is delivered in a big wooden box. 

The motorcycle is only limited to six units in India priced at Rs 21.99 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi). 

The kit includes:

1) Carbon fibre bits

2) Fireglass pillion cowl

3) Aluminium brake and clutch levers

4) Race-spec ECU that has new maps and a bespoke ‘Race’ rider mode

5) SC project titanium and carbon fibre exhaust

The new MV Agusta F3 800 RC is powered by a BS-VI-compliant liquid-cooled 798 cc inline, three-cylinder engine that puts out 148 Bhp of power at 13,000 rpm. The Racing kit, however, enhances the power by 53 hp at 13,250 rpm. The motorcycle produces a twisting force of 88 Nm at 10,600 rpm. Moreover, the kit reduces the weight of the bike by 8 kg as compared to the stock motorcycle. The weight of the bike is reduced from 173 kg to 165 kg. The increase in performance, complemented by all that weight reduction, offers the F3 800 RC a more favourable power-to-weight ratio.

Racing kit enhances the power output figure by 53 hp at 13,250 rpm.

The motorcycle can touch a top speed of 240 kmph. Many elements on both the RC models remain the same. The suspension system in the F3 800, as well as the F3 800 RC, comprises a 43 mm Marzocchi upside-down fork at the front and Sachs rear monoshock. Both the units are fully-adjustable. Braking duties are done by Brembo-sourced callipers, at both the ends. The all-new MV Agusta F3 RC comes loaded with features like eight-level traction control system, Rear-wheel Lift-up Mitigation, Bosch 9 Plus ABS with Race mode features ride-by-wire throttle that has as many as rider-modes, MVICS (Motor & Vehicle Integrated Control System) and Electronic Assisted Shifting (EAS 2.0 up & down).
