Positioned in MV Agusta's sport motorcycle lineup, the 2008 MV Agusta F4 1000 S 1+1 pairs a 998 cc (60.9 cu in) liquid-cooled in-line four, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 166 HP (121.2 kW) at 11,750 rpm while maximum torque reaches 109 Nm (80.4 lb-ft) at 10,200 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 166.3 HP per liter and a 1,550 rpm working window between peak torque (10,200 rpm) and peak power (11,750 rpm), the engine character is placing it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing dominates.
On the scales, the F4 1000 S 1+1 measures 193 kg (425 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.86 HP/kg (1.16 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,408 mm (55.4 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 17.41-liter (4.6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 300 km/h (186 mph).
