1955 MV AGUSTA Type CSTL Serial number: 413811 175... Lot 32

1955 MV AGUSTA Type CSTL Serial number: 413811 175 cm3 French registration 4 500 / 6 500 € Meccanica Verghera (MV) entered motorcycle production at the end of 1945 with a 98 cm3 two-stroke machine, and at the 1952 Milan Motor Show introduced its first production four-stroke motorcycles, the 175 CST and CSTL single-cylinder road bikes, whose modern block-mounted, overhead-cam engines set them apart from the majority of their rivals. Their chassis was also state-of-the-art, with a double-cradle frame using the engine as a working element, telescopic front forks with hydraulic shock absorbers, swing-arm rear suspension and wide, light-alloy hubs. The differences between models were mainly due to the saddles, the CST having a single seat and the CSTL Deluxe a two-seater. Fully restored in 2023, this example is described as being in excellent mechanical condition. The machine is offered with its Certificato di Iscrizione from the MV Agusta Historic Register.
