Having commenced motorcycle production late in 1945 with a 98cc two-stroke, Meccanica Verghera (MV) introduced its first production four-strokes, the single-cylinder 175CST and CSTL, at the Milan Show in 1952.  A year later the 175CS Sport arrived featuring an engine in a higher state of tune that increased maximum power to 11bhp at 7,000rpm and pushed top speed to over 70mph.
