The man brave enough to cut up an MV Agusta F4 Senna
Cutting up an MV Agusta F4 Senna is a gutsy move. The F4 is a surefire future classic, and the Senna version’s carbon bits, and upgraded suspension and brakes, make it even tastier. Plus, MV Agusta only ever built three hundred of them?so it’s rare too.
But when Robert Wilson got his hands on a 2007-model F4 1000 Senna, he just couldn’t help himself. And since he found it with none of its stock bodywork intact, he didn’t feel too bad about tearing into a 173 hp superbike that cost $ 29,995 when it debuted.
Based in the US, Robert describes himself as an ‘OG car guy.’ But he dabbles in motorcycles too, and clearly has a knack for it. This street tracker-ed Senna might be heresy to some?but to us, it’s crazy in all the right ways. Robert’s background in building cars has made him obsessed with attention to detail, and it shows when you scan over the F4’s angular new bodywork. Creating it was a collaborative effort; Robert handled the design, and Brandon Briscoe at Twisted Tin hammered it out the final aluminum pieces.
The front end takes direct cues from flat track racers, with a shapely number board up top, and fork protectors lower down. Lighting is by way of two LED spots, neatly embedded with a slight lip around each one.
Further back?just above the MV Agusta’s unmistakable trellis frame?sits a custom-built fuel tank with a couple of trick features of its own.
