A Photo Gallery of Batman's Other Motorcycle, the MV Agusta F4 RR 1078 312

MV Agusta F4 RR 1078 312 Motorcycle

Between being purchased by Harley-Davidson and landing a spot in the much-hyped Batman flick The Dark Knight, MV Agusta's gotten more than their share of exposure in the past few weeks.

Though not quite as wild as the industrially futuristic Batpod, Bruce Wayne's civilian ride is an MV Agusta F4, a sort of poor man's version of the stunning and pricey F4CC. I just tested the 190 horsepower F4 RR 1078 312 (say that three times fast!) and posted some photos of the bike, and will be writing up a review soon. So take a look at the shots, and if you're inspired check out MV Agusta and Hershey's online contest, which will give away a $35,000 Dark Knight-themed F4.

Pete,

Have you seen the Batman flick? I want to find out exactly which F4 Bruce Wayne rides… don’t think I’ll make it to the multiplex this weekend, though.
