Apparently there are 2 MV Agusta Tamburini Special Editions on display in the Museum Hotel foyer in Wellington at present.

Haven't seen them myself, just been told through the grapevine.

Mate,two MVs live in the foyer all the time,one is the Tamburini & the other one is a 750cc Senna,both limited editions
The owner of the Hotel has also names the conference rooms in the Hotel after his bikes,very cool

Thats a 1000cc Senna... Much newer then the one in the Hotel.
that particular bike is no longer with us...:no:

The hotel owner is actually a VERY good rider. He rides the bikes like they are meant to be ridden. Respect!

We stayed there at Easter (and I've got pix of both bikes, but unfortunately not at work). Both bikes had tyres that looked kinda melted... They'd obviously had a fair workout.
It's a great place to stay, especially if you like quirky art and/or motorcycle porn.

Yes. Don't know which year but one of the MV Aug. was voted best bike design ever.

Yeah and they are designed to be ridden, not just looked at. You really must ride the 750 Senna, the best handling one of them all ......whenever you're ready, Vivienne's ready (named after Ayrton's sister) .........(all my MVs have 'V' names)

Also I've been a railway guy and I always had a soft spot for that hotel after it travelled on railway tracks down and across the road.

MVnut
22nd May 2009, 21:33
And it's about time Chris decided to ride on the MV fang thru Europe, 2010 maybe???

Besides D, I'm having a beer in front of my pc, I'd have to go all the way to the lounge to see MVs (ok ok so there's an oldie right next to me) but most of the MVs are in the lounge and that's too far to walk right now lol ..although there is more cold beer in the lounge too haha

Cant wait to take Vivienne for a ride, when I saw her I couldnt wait to leap on board (as you possibly noticed :msn-wink:)! Im going to do a roadtrip down in the spring and see you all. So we'll come up with some dates and get that Dangerous fella to come and see if he can keep up eh? LOL

Hey Trudes,yes it is similar,but not the same bike,the one in this photo was owned by Dion & is the 1000cc version,as with the two bikes at the Museum Hotel,they are limited editions they only 300 ever make in the world,I sold it to him when I was still working at Sawyers

I was in Australia last week visiting friends and was allowed to take out an MV312RR, and it was THE most amazing machine I have ever been privileged to ride!! absolutely took my breath away... it has been modified for racing and it just flew.
