Overview
MV Agusta 250 Turismo
The displacement may come as a surprise as in the post-war era it was certainly large.
The quarter-litre category was rather popular abroad (such as in England), but in Italy it was rare.
The front suspension was a
cutting-edge telescopic fork.
The rear suspension was placed further back and was still a plunger-box type. The engine was typical for the time, the cylinder and head were made of cast iron. It was sold in a single colour, an elegant metallic silver Source
