US$6,284.66 MV Agusta 1977 350cc Ipotesi. frame # MV350BE*2160957* Engine # *2160539*Although better known for their racing and road-going multi-cylinder machines, MV Agusta also built a range of stylish single- and twin-cylinder sports bikes throughout the 1950s, '60s and '70s. Introduced at the Milan Show in 1971, MV's first production 350 roadster was basically an over-bored version of the existing 250B model that had been around since 1967.Of unitary construction, the engine was a compact, twin-cylinder, overhead-valve unit featuring twin Dell'Orto carburettors, geared primary drive and a five-speed gearbox.They were replaced by restyled, 'square case' 350 Sports/GT equivalents for 1975 - also known as the Ipotesi (hypothesis) - the makeover being the work of celebrated car designer Giorgetto Giugiaro.The basic engine architecture remained unchanged but power went up to 28 bhp to 34 bhp at 8,500 revs with a commensurate increase in performance.This restored example of 1977 is a beautiful example of 1970’s Italian styling.She runs and performs well.
