Arturo Magni commenced working for MV Agusta in 1950, after being offered the position of Head of the famous MV Racing Department. Arturo remained with MV for as long as they continued racing, and was directly responsible for the racing success of some of the world biggest names; Giacomo Agostini, Carlo Ubbiali, Tarquinio Provini, John Surtees, Mike Hailwood, Phil Read, Gianfranco Bonerair, and more.
After MV retired from competition, Arturo departed to open his own enterprise and would go on to design and develop many specialist models, none more so than the beautiful Magni MV Agusta. Sadly Arturo hung-up his work coat for the last time, 2 December 2015, but his legendary innovation and design will live forever in the bikes that carry his famous name, and through the work of his son, Giovannni, who has designed and produced a batch of reproduction Magni MV’s using the latest generation water-cooled engines.
The particular example is the first ever of Arturo’s stunning craftsmanship; Magni 861 frame number 001! It has original British registration MV-861 and its history is well known and recorded online and by any Magni aficionado. This bike has had only one previous owner who kept the bike in the lounge room of his 5th floor apartment. After sitting on displace for 25 years it was removed and underwent a full refurbishment by renown MV craftsman Harald Turner (creator of the MV Target) .
