Seven times world champion Lewis Hamilton is indeed a motorsport enthusiast. He has a collection of a wide array of supercars and superbikes.

Back in 2017, Hamilton announced his collaboration with Italian superbike manufacturer MV Agusta for a brand new motorcycle. This collaboration resulted in the MV Agusta F4 LH44.

The bike makes notable ideas from the MV Agusta Reparto Corse Superbike. The bike puts out a power of 212hp with a central timing chain and radial valves.

This particular F4 LH44 model includes customized suspensions, dedicated control unit, and a titanium silencer. However, the most unique thing about this bike is that there were only 44 units created.
