I've never really got the prestige thing.
I firmly believe that if an item isn't being used for it's intended purpose that's sacrilegious.
I've never seen an MV being ridden hard or on the track which is what this bike is built for. Unfortunately they're too expensive to risk dropping so they usually end up sat in a garage while the owner talks the talk.
A friend of mine had one and said the fly-by-wire throttle was lethal. There would be a slight delay when shutting off that was just enough to disrupt the ride. If I was buying a £15,000 bike I'd expect it to work properly.
Ask yourself why you'd want it.
For the ultimate riding experience that no other bike can provide you or to say that you owned one?
