The MV Agusta Mini Bike Racing 10 Inch is a beautifully executed miniature inspired by the legendary Grand Prix racing motorcycles with which MV Agusta dominated international motorcycle racing throughout the 1970s. The model is based on the machines that factory rider Phil Read rode to the 500cc World Championship titles in 1973 and 1974 and serves as a wonderful tribute to one of the most successful periods in the marque’s history.

Finished in the iconic MV Agusta colours, the bike features a full racing fairing, a sporting race seat and a streamlined rear cowl that directly reflect the famous Grand Prix machines of the era. Power comes from a 47.6cc Moto Morini two-stroke single-cylinder engine, coupled to an automatic clutch and single-speed transmission. Further features include clip-on handlebars, a telescopic front fork, dual rear shock absorbers, drum brakes, a Dell’Orto carburettor and the characteristic exhaust system that perfectly captures the appearance of the original racing motorcycles.

What makes this example particularly desirable is the fact that it is the considerably rarer 10-inch version. While the smaller 8-inch models appear on the market with some regularity, the larger 10-inch versions are offered far less frequently. As a result, they have become especially sought after by collectors of classic minibikes and Italian motorsport memorabilia.

This particular example is also presented in exceptionally good condition. The bike has been very well preserved and retains its authentic appearance beautifully. Combined with its rarity, technical quality and direct connection to the golden era of MV Agusta racing success, it represents a highly attractive collector’s piece for enthusiasts of classic racing machinery and exceptional scale models.

A rare and characterful minibike that perfectly captures the spirit of Italian Grand Prix racing.
