2008 MV Agusta Brutale 1078RR

The MV Agusta Brutale also now gets the 1078cc engine, with a different state of tune aimed at more mid-range, and although peak power is down on the F4RR 312 at 150bhp, it's still the most powerful naked motorcycle MV Agusta has ever made.

MV Agusta have with the 1078 RR fulfilled many people's dream of an ultimate and really brutal Brutale. It boasts 154 horsepower @ 10.700rpm and a massive 117Nm of torque @ 8.100rpm. New gearing allows a higher topspeed, but with the extra cubes it's the extra torque that will be noticeable first. the Brutale 1078RR keeps the same chassis and suspension as before, but with modified internals and radial mounting for the new Brembo Monoblock radial callipers. Big news are also that the engine braking system has been replaced by MV's latest slipper clutch. The catalyser have now been resized to enable an easier process through emissions. Dry weight: 185kg
