Brutale 800 RR

2018 MV Agusta Brutale 800 RR Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

At the heart of the 2018 MV Agusta Brutale 800 RR naked motorcycle, MV Agusta utilizes a 798 cc (48.7 cu in) oil & air-cooled in-line three, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 140 HP (102.2 kW) at 13,100 rpm while maximum torque reaches 86 Nm (63.4 lb-ft) at 10,100 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 175.4 HP per liter and a 3,000 rpm working window between peak torque (10,100 rpm) and peak power (13,100 rpm), the engine character is placing it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing dominates.

On the scales, the Brutale 800 RR measures 168 kg (370 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.83 HP/kg (1.2 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 810 mm (31.9 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,380 mm (54.3 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 16.6-liter (4.4 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 6.7 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 248 km (154 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 245 km/h (152 mph).
