2020 MV Agusta F3 800 RC Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Positioned in MV Agusta's sport motorcycle lineup, the 2020 MV Agusta F3 800 RC pairs a 798 cc (48.7 cu in) liquid-cooled in-line three, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 153 HP (111.7 kW) at 13,250 rpm while maximum torque reaches 88 Nm (64.9 lb-ft) at 10,600 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 191.7 HP per liter and a 2,650 rpm working window between peak torque (10,600 rpm) and peak power (13,250 rpm), the engine character is placing it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing dominates.

On the scales, the F3 800 RC measures 165 kg (364 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.93 HP/kg (1.08 kg per horsepower). 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 1,380 mm (54.3 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 16.5-liter (4.4 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 6.4 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 258 km (160 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 240 km/h (149 mph).

Within MotoLibrary's MV Agusta archive, this model family spans 5 indexed model years from 2016 to 2020, allowing buyers to track year-over-year changes in emissions tuning, weight and equipment.
