Dragster Rosso

2023 MV Agusta Dragster Rosso Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Positioned in MV Agusta's naked motorcycle lineup, the 2023 MV Agusta Dragster Rosso 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 112 HP (81.8 kW) at 11,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 85 Nm (62.7 lb-ft) at 8,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 140.4 HP per liter and a 2,500 rpm working window between peak torque (8,500 rpm) and peak power (11,000 rpm), the engine character is placing it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing dominates.

On the scales, the Dragster Rosso measures 175 kg (386 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.64 HP/kg (1.56 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 845 mm (33.3 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,400 mm (55.1 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 16.5-liter (4.4 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 5.1 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 324 km (201 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 237 km/h (147 mph).
