The MV Agusta 350 Sport also MV Agusta 350 Ipotesi was a motorcycle of the MV Agusta company that was built from 1975 to 1977. This model series, which resulted from a design study, was made in 1991.

development

The predecessor model MV Agusta 350 S, built from 1970 to 1974 and offered in various model variations (350 GT, 350 GTE, 350 Scrambler, 350 S), was to be replaced by a model that was to undergo an optical upgrade based on the four-cylinder models. A design study by Giorgio Giugiaro , presented to the press in November 1973, attracted attention with its striking horizontal lines and sharp contours. The tubular backbone frame went from the steering head under the tank in a straight line to the stern. The angular cylinder heads, matching the straight lines of the machine, completed the then ultra-modern concept.

Technical specifications

The bumper motor, already installed in the 250 Bicilindrica from 1966, was technically only slightly revised. The electronic flywheel magneto known from the MV Agusta 350 GTE was used on the "Ipotesi" ; the engine was started using a kick starter. In contrast to the previous models, a double disc brake was installed at the front and a single disc brake at the rear. Alternatively, as engine performance were also 27 hp (20 kW) at 7,800 min -1 or 34 hp (25 kW) at 8,500 min -1 are available.
