MV Agusta introduced its first production four-strokes in 1952, with production of the all-175cc range commencing in 1954. The newcomers' advanced overhead-cam, unitary construction engines set them apart from most of the opposition, while their cycle parts too were state-of-the-art, consisting of a duplex-loop frame incorporating the engine as a stressed member; oil-damped telescopic front fork; swinging-arm rear suspension; and full-width alloy hubs. MV's overhead-cam 175s lasted until 1959, by which time they had effectively been superseded by the otherwise similar AB range of overhead-valve models.
This 175 AB Turismo was first registered in the UK on 1st May 2017 and has had one previous keeper. Fitted with electronic ignition and a larger-than-standard carburettor, the machine is described as in good condition throughout and last ran at the Curborough Charity Sprint in August 2021. Accompanying documentation consists of a dating letter; a V5C; and a photocopy of the original Italian registration papers. It should be noted that the engine has been changed.
