2024 MV Agusta Enduro Veloce Demo ride part 1 of 6

Very nice machine! 5 year factory unlimited mile warranty! FUN! A sport bike disguised as an ADV bike. A hot rod of an engine. Symphonic exhaust tone. But, they are just too proud of the price and too persnickety on the trade in allowance. Just Italian makes or Just the market now? Initial musings: Control pods buttons feel very cheap/weak, display while adequate was too dark for my tastes on a bright day, first gear is too tall for ANY serious off road use. Engine was a sheer joy but surprisingly felt anemic on bottom end, this engine really shines when revved. Seating and positioning was 100%. Handling Superb! Brakes, EXCELLENT. Suspension travel was not tested, did have the wheelie control and traction control kick in during this test ride. The powerband of this motor is very 2-stroke-like, in other words, kick in the pants. Very fun!
