Description:

There are beautiful bike and there are bikes that make you dream, the ‘MV Augusta Brutale is part of the second category.


Each year, leaving many beautiful bike, and increasingly technological pace with the times, so many bikes, pass me the term commercial. Then there are the goddesses, the elite, the bikes that make us dizzy.

Moto is not for everyone, not always easy to tame, almost tailor made ​​or at least in the beginning was so … Streetfighter bikes like the Ducati , Triumph Speed ​​Triple or the MV Agusta Brutale. Today we talk about it.

The Brutale has been presented in the guise that she will wear in 2010, at first glance does not seem we have many differences, in this naked reality is profoundly changed.

I will always be two models, the smallest and the 990 R RR 1090. Differ in the engines, both four-cylinder engine, the smallest change, now 982cc from 998cc against the previous, while the 1090 changes the name but not the size, is the same for the 1078cc version.

The electronics is completely changed, now managed by the electronic control unit Magneti Marelli 5.SM , much more evolved version of the previous year. It is characterized by the traction control on eight adjustable intensity, and two maps (Dry and Rain) to assist the pilot in case of wet road.

The measures have changed, we have a wheelbase of 1,438 mm compared to the previous 1410 mm, the arm is extended by 20 mm, and the boat increases the tilt from 24.5 to 25 degrees.

Is this a new rotary type steering damper that improves stabillita.

Aesthetically, but we find the classic round headlight with LED technology, new instrumentation, the tail slightly elongated discharges redesigned.

Prices are always MV: 15.500 € for the 990 R and RR 18,500 for 1090.
