About Magni

Money is a common Italian motorcycle manufacturer. In 1947, Arturo Magni started his career within the Gilera racing department dealing with Piero Remor, the engineer from the famous four-cylinder Gilera racing engine.

Because the time went by, multiple new Magni models specified for and introduced. Later, the organization folded the well-known "Classico 1000" and "Arturo 1000", outfitted with spoke wheels, large round car headlights and uncovered engines. The 2 motorcycles were adopted in 1989 through the "Sfida 1000" as well as in 1990 through the new "Australia" racing bike, that also arrived a road version too, formally introduced in 1993.

In 1950, Arturo Magni became a member of the MV Agusta racing department, where he continued to be in excess of two decades, until 1977. Controlling MV Reparto Corsa, the racers John Surtees, Mike Hailwood, Provini, Ubbiali and Giacomo Agostini won 75 world titles and also over 3,000 races, which underlined the truth that Magni was increasingly effective.

In 1998, other models were developed: the Sfida 1000 4V, outfitted having a Guzzi engine, Australia 98, which produces 102 horsepower and Giappone 52, specially produced to celebrate 2 decades of Magni motorcycles available on the market.

The street form of the bike has got the same qualities because the racing model, but has different exhaust and add-ons. Due to the prosperity of Sfida 1000, Magni launched the brand new Sfida 1100 in 1995, with a brand new frame and lots of handling enhancements.

How a Magni VIN breaks down

Every motorcycle VIN since 1981 has the same 17 positions. A VIN never uses I, O or Q.

WMI · 1–3The maker and the country it built the motorcycle in.
VDS · 4–8Model, body and engine. The decoder turns these into specs.
CHECK · 9Worked out from the other 16 characters. A typo breaks it.
YEAR · 10A letter or digit; the code repeats every 30 years, so C is 1982 or 2012.
PLANT · 11The factory that assembled the motorcycle.
