1963 MV Agusta 50cc Liberty Sport Registration no. NWT 826A Frame no. MVL810462 Engine no. MVL810277 Although best known for their racing and road-going four-cylinder four-strokes, MV Agusta built lightweights throughout its manufacturing career and in its early days listed small two-strokes and even a scooter. Indeed, between 1955 and 1959 they listed a offered a moped and in 1962 introduced the 50cc Liberty, an ultra-lightweight sports roadster. The Italian Highway Code no longer required such machines to have pedals, and the Liberty was aimed squarely at youngsters who wanted something more stylish than the traditional step-thru moped. A four-stroke in a field dominated by two-strokes, the Liberty featured a three-speed twistgrip-change gearbox at first while 1967-onwards models had a foot-change four-speeder. Turismo, Sport, and Super Sport versions were available. This stylish Italian sports moped was first UK registered in December 2020 and purchased by our private vendor in 2021 from Lusso Veloce. Restored by a previous owner, the machine has been dry stored as part of a small private collection, the engine being turned over regularly. Relatively minor recommissioning and the customary safety checks should be required before returning it to the road. Accompanying documentation consists of a V5C Registration Certificate, an MV Liberty brochure and the 2021 purchase invoice.
