He told me last night that it needs more power 
I forgot to tell him that MV's run in properly at approx 2500k, then they loosen up and all hell breaks loose.

I'm looking at a 2004 F4 1000S. It has 18800km on the clock. Is all original, a bit of a paint ship in the tank, chip in the front fairing which both should be able to be repaired reasonably easily. Needs a good wash and polish. Exhaust has somehow melted through the inner guard and started chomping through the toolkit too! Should be around the $17k mark.

Great Rod, hope the deal goes through.
NO cooling issues with the S model, so she should be good to go.
What colour mate?

Is red and silver. My wife ain't too keen on it as it is a single seater... Cheap though! I'm doing more digging around to see what service stuff comes up after 18,000km.

Oh yeah, F4MV = monoposto ONLY!
I mean who'd wanna sit on the rear seat anyway
18000 kms service is quite tame, 24k is valves, 36k for cam chain.

MV is going fine... first service out of the way... not cheap, but my mechanic has done a superb job. (S&T Motorcycle Art) There is something special about when you hand a peice of machinery over to an aircraft engineer, workshop floor you can eat off... I didn't know such a workshop existed in Western Australia.
It now has a hugger fitted to keep the crud off the shock and swing arm, luxeon LED park lights and I have upgraded the headlight globes (not too much bling really needed to put on these) still not used to a hydraulic clutch, more power would be nice... as I saw a 1078 (190HP), and I thought... you know, that would be just fine.
