MV parts are scarce in the US and service shops scarcer. A GOOD service shop is priceless.
There's a shop in Seattle that services all the Itals other than Ducati that has a very good rep and fairly reliable lines to Italian distibutors.
They're about the only ones for that sort of thing in the NW.

Unless you know you have a reliable shop within a reasonale distance, you should probably steer away from MV.
They look tits, but waiting for parts can be frustrating.
Would maybe make a good looking second bike, but not for a primary.
