Few motorcycles can match the exclusivity of an MV Agusta! And if you throw in a limited edition, track-only motorcycle, the MV Agusta model becomes even more exclusive. Yes! We are talking about the MG Agusta F3 800 RC, which is a track-only variant of the standard F3 800 and is priced at a premium of Rs. 4 lakh over the same! The F3 800 RC (RC stands for Reparto Corse) gets a 'Racing kit' which includes a special ECU, an SC Project exhaust and mirror caps, brake/clutch levers, footpegs made of Aluminium, decreasing weight from 173 kg to 165 kg.

The motorcycle also gets Agusta's racing livery along with red alloy wheels and the Italian tricolore, which make it look stunning.
