New for 2025, the limited-edition MV Agusta F3 Competizione is based on the F3 RR but includes special features like Öhlins suspension and carbon-fiber components, and only 300 units will be built. Each unit comes with a dedicated kit and a certificate of authenticity and is engraved with its unique unit number out of 300.

Replacing the F3 RR’s Marzzochi fork is a 43mm Öhlins NIX30 inverted fork with TiN-coated stanchions and full adjustability. Adjusters for compression and rebound are found on the top of the fork on the left and right, respectively. The Öhlins TXX 36 shock includes an external piggyback reservoir and is also fully adjustable. Also included is a 19-position adjustable steering damper. This suspension setup reduces weight by about 2 lb compared to the F3 RR’s suspension. More weight reduction comes from the carbon wheels that replace the RR’s aluminum alloy wheels, shaving off an extra 6.6 lb.
Braking components remain the same, including 320mm front discs with radial-mounted Brembo Stylema monoblock 4-piston calipers and a 220mm rear disc. The RR’s standard battery is replaced with a lighter-weight lithium-ion battery in the Competizione.
The F3 Competizione’s titanium Akrapovič exhaust system bumps horsepower up from 155 on the F3 RR to 160 at 13,500 rpm. The engine powering both models is MV Agusta’s 798cc 3-cylinder, with a13,500 rpm rev limit. The Competizione benefits from the new 9-disc MV Agusta slip/assist clutch, which is claimed to reduce lever effort by 50%. Like the F3 RR, the Competizione also gets Electronically Assisted Shift for clutchless up- and downshifts.
The MV Agusta F3 Competizione comes with a new ECU and a 6-axis IMU. It offers four riding modes (Rain, Sport, Race, and Custom), eight levels of traction control, and cruise control. A 5.5-inch TFT display connects to the MV Ride smartphone app. ABS with two modes (Sport and Race) features a cornering function. Also included is front lift control and launch control, which MV Agusta claims allows the bike to accelerate from 0 to 100 kmh (62 mph) in under 3 seconds.
The bike includes many carbon fiber parts, including the fairing sides and front fender. Also included is a smoked racing windscreen. The Competizione’s design draws inspiration from the F4 Claudio and includes colors like Satin Metallic Carbon Black, Satin Intense Silver, and Gold. It has an Alcantara seat and gold finish on some components, including the front brake disc flanges and the rear sprocket. The CNC-machined triple clamp includes a plaque with the unit’s number out of 300.
As a limited-edition model, the 2025 MV Agusta F3 Competizione comes with a dedicated kit which includes the Akrapovič titanium exhaust, carbon-fiber cover for the exhaust terminal, a CNC-machined fuel cap, a fiberglass seat cover, a dedicated bike cover, and a certificate of authenticity.
