2007 MV Agusta Brutale 910R
Captivating style, great temperament, engine technology par excellence, and a fanatical eye to detail. All these qualities have long been recognized in the both the 750 and 910 Brutale. Now imagine these properties dramatically enhanced by improved performance, stronger braking and the dynamic handling characteristics of a full race machine. This is the 910R — a motorcycle for everyday use that is capable of rewarding its rider with the behavior and riding sensation that is more in line with full race machines. The MV Agusta Brutale 910R keeps the same elegant lines of the S version, but includes several modifications that make it even more dynamic and aggressive.
THE EQUIPMENT:
The Brutale 910R is fitted with state-of-the-art technical systems worthy of a competition machine. This is clearly seen in the braking and suspension systems that differ from the 910S as follows:
- Brembo Monoblock P4/34 radial brake calipers.
- Aluminum 320mm Brembo discs
- Radial caliper strut
- Marzocchi USD 50 mm R.A.C. forks (Road Advanced Component.)
- Brembo forged Aluminum wheels with Y spokes.
- Racing exhaust with specialized Eprom
- New hand-polished inlet ducts
The addition of polished intakes helps increase engine performance from the Brutale 910S, and when optional racing exhaust is installed, the Brutale 910R pumps out 144hp.

The 2013 MV Agusta Rivale 800 Preview
MV Agusta released all the info ahead of the bikes official unveiling at the EICMA in Milan. Thie name is the Rivale 800. This bike builds on MVA’s line of inline three motorcycles, joining the F3 675, the Bruatle 675 and the all-new Brutale 800. These bikes are all younger siblings of MV’s F4 and the new Brutale 1090. Its takes a clear aim at one competitor – the Ducati Hypermotard. The styling attributes of the Rivale 800 display this; the front appears like Ducati’s Hypermotorad. But what’s also interesting is the rear tail section – it takes styling from Ducati’s Diavel.
Same as Brutale 800, the Rivale features the signature steel-trellis frame and single-sided swingarm, all united through two aluminum-alloy plates. MV Agusta says the angle of the steering head on the Rivale 800 is half of a degree more open than the Brutale 800. The excursion of the fork and shock have also been increased to provide more comfort and conformity to the road surface.
The new 800′s engine is basically a bored-out version of the 675. The 800 pushes 125 horsepower at 11,600 rpm, which is 12 ponies more than the 675, and 60 ft. lbs. of torque at 8600 rpm. The engine features the counter-rotating crankshaft, something once only used in MotoGP. The design reduces inertia while changing direction, helping the bike’s overall balance.
For comfortable ridding, the Rivale 800 uses Marzocchi and Sachs components of suspension, which feature adjustable spring preload, hydraulic compression and rebound damping. And for stopping the Rivale 800 are dual, 320mm discs up front from squeezed by Brembo four-piston radial calipers, and a single 220mm disc out back squeezed by a twin-piston Brembo caliper.
The Rivale 800 also features a new dash. The compact "monochrome" fully-digital, mult-function dashboard was optimized for not only looks within the front fairing. MV Agusta says the Rivale 800 should be available in the second half of 2013, and retails for around $13,970 (10,990€).
