2023 Mv Agusta F3 800 R

2023 Mv Agusta F3 800 R R.

The 2023 MV Agusta F3 800 R is an Italian road-focused supersport motorcycle distinguished by its compact proportions, dramatic styling and three-cylinder engine. With just 1 km displayed, this used consignment example presents as a particularly low-distance opportunity for riders seeking an unusual alternative to more familiar Japanese supersport machines.

At the centre of the F3 is a 798 cc inline three-cylinder petrol engine with DOHC valve gear, electronic fuel injection and liquid and oil cooling. The engine is paired with a six-speed manual transmission and a wet, multi-disc hydraulic slipper clutch. A cassette-style constant-mesh transmission and left-foot gear change retain the direct, mechanical connection expected of a performance-oriented motorcycle, while chain final drive is straightforward to maintain.

The F3 800 R is built around a tubular-steel trellis frame and an aluminium alloy single-sided swingarm. Its suspension specification gives the chassis a broad adjustment range: the Marzocchi upside-down front fork offers separate rebound, compression and spring-preload adjustment, while the progressive Sachs rear monoshock adds a piggyback nitrogen reservoir with adjustable damping and spring preload. This provides useful scope for setting the bike up to suit different road conditions, rider preferences and loads.

Braking hardware is similarly substantial. Twin 320 mm floating front discs work with four-piston Brembo radial monobloc calipers, while the rear uses a 220 mm disc and Brembo double-piston caliper. Standard Continental MK100 ABS includes cornering functionality and rear-wheel lift-up mitigation, adding an electronic safety layer without changing the F3's focused character. Traction control is also fitted as standard.

The motorcycle's 173 kg dry weight, 1,380 mm wheelbase and 830 mm seat height point to a compact, committed riding experience. Its 120/70-ZR17 front and 180/55-ZR17 rear Pirelli Diablo Rosso Corsa tyres are mounted on black multi-spoke aluminium alloy wheels, complementing the chassis and braking package. The two-rider capacity means it retains some versatility beyond solo use, although its road-bike format and performance-oriented layout remain central to its design.

Finished in Ago Red gloss, the F3 800 R has the visual presence expected of an MV Agusta, with styling that is intended to stand apart as clearly when parked as it does on the road. It is not learner approved and is currently listed as unregistered. The combination of minimal displayed distance, adjustable suspension, high-specification braking equipment and a distinctive three-cylinder engine makes this a focused road motorcycle for an experienced rider seeking Italian design and engineering character.
