Engineered by MV Agusta for the naked motorcycle segment, the 2008 MV Agusta Brutale Gladio features a 748.9 cc (45.7 cu in) liquid-cooled in-line four, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 127 HP (92.7 kW) at 12,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 169.6 HP per liter, the engine character is placing it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing dominates.
Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 805 mm (31.7 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,414 mm (55.7 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 21-liter (5.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
