MV Agusta Superveloce 800 Key Replacement

Quick answerMV Agusta's US owner's manuals for the 2020 and 2021 to 2022 Superveloce 800 describe the key the same way: one key, supplied in duplicate, for the ignition and all the locks, with a key identification number to write down. Neither manual has an immobilizer chapter or mentions an MV Code Card. On those bikes a lost key is a cutting job at the motorcycle, and we confirm your exact year before the visit.

MV Agusta Superveloce 800 key quick facts

The 2020 and 2021-2022 US Superveloce 800 manuals both say a key is supplied in duplicate for both the ignition and all the locks.
Both manuals give a space to record the key identification number, which MV may ask for when you order spare keys.
Neither manual contains an immobilizer section or an MV Code Card, unlike the Brutale 1000 and Turismo Veloce manuals of the same period.
The fuel tank cap has a key lock under a dust cover: turn the key clockwise to open, and press the cap down while turning the key counterclockwise to lock it.
The passenger saddle is released by turning the key clockwise in its lock while pushing slightly on the saddle.
The 2020 manual covers a Mobisat tracking unit and notes that theft alarm messages are not sent if the bike is taken using stolen ignition keys.

A modern MV without a Code Card

Owners coming from a Brutale 1000 or a Turismo Veloce expect an MV to arrive with a Code Card and an immobilizer menu on the dash. The Superveloce 800 manuals for 2020 and for 2021 to 2022 have neither. The key is covered in a few lines in the identification chapter, next to the frame number and the color code: the key works the ignition and all the locks, you get two, and you should note the identification number.

That matches what MV printed for the F3, which the Superveloce is built on. It also means a no-start on one of these bikes should not be blamed on the key first. Battery, kill switch and side stand come before it.

Locks the key works

MV repeats one caution in several places: never attach a key ring or other object to the ignition key, because it could interfere with the steering. On a bike with a low screen and clip-on bars there is very little room around the switch, so a single bare key is the sensible way to carry it.

Ignition switch with OFF, ON and LOCK positions; for LOCK you turn the bars and press the key in gently as you rotate it, and the key comes out with the steering locked
Fuel tank cap: lift the dust cover, insert the key and rotate it clockwise, then lift the cap
Passenger saddle: key clockwise with light pressure on the saddle, lift the rear and pull it back

The tracker does not replace the key

The 2020 manual describes a Mobisat unit that can text the owner and notify the app if the vehicle is moved or involved in an accident. It is a tracking and alert service. It does not stop the engine from starting, and the manual states that if the ignition keys themselves were stolen and used to take the bike, the alarm messages will not be received.

So if a key goes missing in circumstances that worry you, the fix is at the locks. They can be changed to a new key so the old one no longer fits.

Replacing a Superveloce key

Have the key identification number ready if it was written in the manual or kept with the paperwork, along with photo ID and your registration or title. We cut a key to that number or to the locks on the bike, then check it in the ignition, the steering lock position, the fuel cap and the passenger saddle lock.

If you still have one key, the simplest and cheapest step is a duplicate now. Two were supplied for a reason.

Where to find the key code

The Superveloce 800 manuals provide a space headed KEY No. for the key identification number and say you may be required to give it when ordering spare keys. Check the manual and the delivery paperwork from the selling dealer.

MV Agusta Superveloce 800 key FAQ

Does the Superveloce 800 have an immobilizer?

MV Agusta's 2020 and 2021-2022 US owner's manuals for the Superveloce 800 describe a key supplied in duplicate and have no immobilizer chapter or Code Card. For other years we confirm from your VIN.

Where is the key number for my Superveloce?

The manual has a space for it in the identification chapter. If the first owner or dealer filled it in, that is the number to give us.

My keys were stolen. Will the Mobisat tracker protect the bike?

It can report the bike's position, but MV's 2020 manual says alarm messages are not sent when the bike is taken with its own keys. Having the locks changed to a new key is the reliable step.

Does the same key open the passenger seat and the fuel cap?

Yes. The manual says one key is supplied for the ignition and all the locks, and it shows that key used in the fuel tank cap and the passenger saddle lock.
