Model history

In the 1970s, MV Agusta came under state administration due to financial problems. The MV Agusta 750S America was relaunched in 1975 on the initiative of Chris Garville and Jim Cotherman. The aim was to make the bike more similar to the look of the MV racing machines in order to increase sales in the USA. Within just 50 days, the designs of the two entrepreneurs were put into practice at the Gallarate plant. The MV Agusta 750 Sport America was produced from 1975 to 1977, while derivative models were produced in limited numbers until 1982. Although prototypes were developed until 1977, they could not go into production due to the financial situation of the company. Production of the MV Agusta 750S America model was maintained until 1978, with a total of 540 copies produced.
