MV AGUSTA Brutale 800 RR (2015-2016) Specs, Performance & Photos

One series in MV Agusta's range was the Brutale, which included motorcycles with three or four-cylinder engines and various displacements. The series was born in 2001, with the MV Agusta Brutale 750 Oro being the first model.

In 2015, the Italian motorcycle maker launched the MV Agusta Brutale 800 RR, a more powerful version of the base Brutale 800. The engine boasted 15 hp more and was classified as the fastest Brutale triple.

Some changes received by the 800 RR version included 50 mm throttle bodies, a new airbox, two fuel injectors per cylinder, and a less restrictive exhaust system, raising the power to 140 hp.

The machine was characterized by a single headlight up front, a trellis frame, a one-piece dual seat, an engine spoiler, a triple exhaust system, a single-sided swingarm, and five-spoke alloy wheels.

The steel trellis frame was suspended on an inverted Marzocchi adjustable fork on the front and an adjustable Sachs shock absorber on the rear. Two 320 mm discs with four-piston calipers on the front and a 220 mm rotor with a dual-piston caliper on the rear achieved the braking power.

The 2014 MV Agusta Brutale 800 RR's soul was brought to life by a 798cc four-stroke three-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that delivered 140 hp at 13,100 rpm and 85 Nm (63 lb-ft) torque at 10,100 rpm.
