Italeri 4630 - Overview of the 1/9 MV Agusta 500 cc 1964 Kit

The MV Agusta 500 cc stands as a legendary racing machine, known for its engineering and race wins. This Italeri kit recreates that era at 1/9 scale, reflecting the machine that dominated the 500 cc category from 1956 to 1965 and claimed nine world titles. Famous riders such as John Surtees and Mike Hailwood rode the original, helping secure its place in racing history.

Racing heritage and accurate features

On the real bike, developments like the switch from Cardan to chain drive and the adoption of a telescopic front fork helped performance on track. The model mirrors those developments, with carefully moulded components and chrome-plated parts that boost visual authenticity. Pre-moulded colours make the kit look sharp straight from the box.

Build character and functional details

Italeri includes working suspension and rubber tires to add movement and realism to the finished model. The 1/9 scale gives plenty of room for fine detail, making this a satisfying project for experienced builders who appreciate authentic mechanics and display quality.
