Built around MV Agusta's naked motorcycle platform, the 2011 MV Agusta Brutale 1090 RR utilizes a 1078 cc (65.8 cu in) oil & air-cooled in-line four, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 144.2 HP (105.3 kW) at 10,600 rpm while maximum torque reaches 115 Nm (84.8 lb-ft) at 8,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox. With a specific output of 133.8 HP per liter and a 2,600 rpm working window between peak torque (8,000 rpm) and peak power (10,600 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the Brutale 1090 RR measures 221 kg (487 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.65 HP/kg (1.53 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 830 mm (32.7 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,438 mm (56.6 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 23-liter (6.1 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
