MV Agusta Superveloce 1000 Ago Honoring the racing legend that won 15 world titles, 123 world championship races, 18 Italian Championship titles, and 10 Tourist Trophies, the MV Agusta Superveloce 1000 Ago is a limited-edition model with special top-quality details and signed by Giacomo Agostini himself. Giacomo Agostini’s signature will adorn each Superveloce 1000 Ago. Also notice the gold plate that reads “15 Titoli Mondiali.” The model is limited to 83 units worldwide to mark Agostini’s 83rd birthday in 2025, and each unit’s individual number from 1 to 83 can be found on a real-gold plate on the steering head, as well as on the certificate of authenticity. One particularly unique feature is that a brass coin on the shell of each ignition key is made from an original trophy won by Agostini and that Agostini selected and donated to MV Agusta for this purpose. This brass coin on each ignition key was made from one of Agostini’s trophies. It reads “Ricavato da un Trofeo di Giacomo Agostini.” Drawing inspiration from Agostini’s racing bike, the Superveloce 1000 Ago will feature Fire Red Matte and Magnum Silver Matte colors, along with a yellow side panel with a number 1 on it. The bike features full carbon-fiber bodywork, the spoked wheels include a silver color, and a leather strap runs over the fuel tank. On the leather strap is a golden plaque that reads “15 Titoli Mondiali,” translating to “15 world titles.” The black Alcantara seat is embroidered with “Agostini” with arrow-shaped stripes reminiscent of Agostini’s racing suite, as well as an MV Agusta logo. A leather strap extends across the fuel tank. Other than the special details described above, the Superveloce 1000 Ago shares specifications and high-quality parts with the MV Agusta Superveloce 1000 Serie Oro, a limited-edition model announced for 2024. It’s powered by MV’s 998cc inline-Four that makes a claimed 208 hp at 13,000 rpm and 85.9 lb-ft of torque at 11,000 rpm, with redline at 14,000 rpm. Top-quality components include forged titanium connecting rods, DLC-coated cams, and titanium valves. On the steering head is a plate with each bike’s individual number out of 83. It also features a steel trellis frame, and the aluminum single-sided swingarm has a height-adjustable connector pin. Öhlins electronic suspension includes a 43mm inverted fork (electronically adjustable for compression and rebound and manually adjustable for spring preload), a 36mm monoshock (electronically adjustable for preload, rebound, and compression), and an adjustable steering damper. Braking is provided by Brembo and includes two front 320mm discs with radial Stylema 4-piston calipers, as well as a rear 220mm disc with 2-piston caliper.

Maine Gov. Janet Mills faced boos and hecklers while speaking in her hometown of Farmington over the weekend. “@GovJanetMills got some INTENSE heckling that included shouts of ‘We have daughters!’ and ‘Stand up for them!’ today at the Maine Moose Lottery in her hometown,” state Rep. Laurel Libby, a Republican, said. “Stop discriminating against Maine women and girls, Governor!” she added. WATCH: .@GovJanetMills got some INTENSE heckling that included shouts of "We have daughters!" and "Stand up for them!" today at the Maine Moose Lottery in her hometown… Stop discriminating against Maine women and girls, Governor! pic.twitter.com/1m1SoedZXW — Rep. Laurel Libby (@laurel_libby) June 21, 2025 Per Bangor Daily News: Gov. Janet Mills was in her hometown of Farmington on Saturday to announce the winners of Maine’s annual moose hunt permit lottery, but the process became a bit testy when she encountered hecklers who booed and shouted at her. The booing began as Inland Fisheries and Wildlife Commissioner Judy Camuso introduced the Democratic governor to the podium to start reading off names of the more than 4,000 hunters who will have the chance to hunt moose during the 2025 season that begins in September. Mills repeatedly stepped away from the podium and raised her hands before returning to the microphone as hecklers continued to boo her, at one point telling the crowd, “I’m not going to read any names until you quiet down.” “We have daughters,” one member of the audience under a tent at the Farmington Fairgrounds shouted in a video shared by Rep. Laurel Libby, R-Auburn, on social media. The video was taken from the side of the stage at an angle that did not show the faces of different hecklers. “I have five daughters,” Mills said. “Stand up for them,” an attendee replied, as part of an apparent reference to Maine’s policies allowing transgender girls to compete in female sports that drew attention this year after President Donald Trump began targeting Maine over the matter. “@GovJanetMills refuses to address questions about why she supports men in women’s sports — and her family’s ties to the transgender medicine industry,” The Daily Wire White House correspondent Mary Margaret Olohan said last week.

Maine Public Radio reports: The Maine House gave initial approval Friday night to a bill that would ban transgender athletes from girls’ and women’s sports after hours of emotional debate on the issue. The measure will likely face more significant opposition in the Maine Senate, however, which voted Thursday to reject a similar prohibition on transgender athletes. Earlier Friday, the Democratic-controlled House had rejected a series of bills that aimed to change Maine’s policy of allowing students to play on teams based on their “gender identity.” But then lawmakers voted narrowly to advance a bill, LD 233, that will prohibit schools and colleges from allowing anyone who was born male from participating in athletics programs that were “designated for females.” The bill’s sponsor, Republican Rep. Dick Campbell of Orrington, said he introduced the straight-forward bill at the request of a constituent before Maine ended up in the national spotlight on the issue. Campbell said he had hoped lawmakers would work in a bipartisan fashion to address what he called “a major problem.” “This Legislature . . . should be able to address this issue,” Campbell said. “I don’t have the solution but together we ought to be able to come up with one.” Opponents attempted to reject the bill but failed on a 70 to 73 vote after four Democrats — Reps. Stephan Bunker of Farmington, Wayne Farrin of Jefferson, Dani O’Halloran of Brewer and David Rollins of Augusta — voted with all of the Republicans to support the bill. While supporters describe the bills as attempting to protect female athletes from unfair competition or injury, opponents portrayed the measures as promoting misguided policies that could harm vulnerable youths.

Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) said on a podcast she’s open to the possibility of becoming an independent and caucusing with Democrats. “Is there a world in which by becoming unaligned or an independent, you could help Alaskans that you consider it?” Galen Druke asked during an interview on his GD Politics podcast. “There may be that possibility,” Murkowski answered. “There is some openness to exploring something different than the status quo,” she later added.

Murkowski has clashed with Trump several times since he returned to the White House, including accusing him of “walking away from our allies” after the president’s February fight with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in the Oval Office. And in May, she criticized the administration for revoking the temporary protected status of Afghan immigrants, calling the move “a historic betrayal.” In March, Murkowski told reporters her Republican colleagues were “afraid” of going against Trump and then-ally Elon Musk, and said the pair’s work reducing the federal workforce through the Department of Government Efficiency was “traumatizing people.” WATCH: Seriously .@lisamurkowski you have been mislabeled — you are a RINO. ‘My vote, my views’ supersedes the will of your constituents and they are not getting the representation needed.

Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) entertained the possibility of bailing on the GOP. One of those interviews was conducted by former FiveThirtyEight podcaster Galen Druke on his GD Politics show. In it, Murkowski refused to quell speculation that she could jump ship, but did say she has fundamental disagreements with Democrats. “Challenged as I think we may be on the Republican side, I don’t see the Democrats being much better,” Murkowski said. “They’ve got not only their share of problems, but quite honestly, they’ve got some policies that I just inherently disagree with.” So Druke followed up by asking whether Murkowski would consider going Independent — should the GOP lose three seats in the 2026 midterm elections, thus putting Democrats in control of the chamber. “There may be that possibility,” she said, adding, “There is some openness to exploring something different than the status quo.” In an interview with Semafor, Murkowski said, “Have I considered [switching parties]? Yes, because I’ve been asked the question.”
