3rd place -- MV Agusta F3 675
The MV Agusta F3 675 is a stunner from every angle. In fact, it won the Best New Design award at the Milan Motorcycle Show. This supersport bike also comes with all the latest electronic aids available including 8-level traction control, variable injection mapping, computer controlled throttle, launch control, anti-wheeling, shifting assist, and more. Meanwhile, the sweet-sounding triple-cylinder engine uses a revolutionary counter-rotating crankshaft, a MotoGP-derived technology that improves full-throttle acceleration.
There's one problem, though: The fully electronic “ride-by-wire” throttle demands an extremely delicate hand and a lot of getting used to. Regardless, the F3 675 is a super weapon for track days and hot lap sessions. After just one year in the world supersport championship, French rider Jules Cluzel managed to turn it into one of the fastest contenders.
