1994...Ratzenberger and then Senna @ San Marino! That was so crazy...

I believe b/c of his death, that introduced the collapsible steering column, the HANS device and better cornerworking.

MV released a very nice Senna bike to honor him and still till this day, is one of the most beautiful bike I've ever seen.

Not too fan of the wheels design, but I do like the body design for sure! Sweet looking!

That was their signature star wheel but now the newer ones have the 10 spoke Marchesini like the Ducatis do.

It's probably there for clearance so areas near the battery don't get in contact with the fairing. They tend to run very hot so any contact would immediately warp the plastic.

Here is a pic with the side fairing removed.

At least the FR-S bump has some functionality but I wonder what was their idea was by placing it so low!?!
