Positioned in MV Agusta's sport motorcycle lineup, the 2008 MV Agusta F4-R312 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 183 HP (133.6 kW) at 12,400 rpm while maximum torque reaches 115 Nm (84.8 lb-ft) at 10,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 183.4 HP per liter and a 2,400 rpm working window between peak torque (10,000 rpm) and peak power (12,400 rpm), the engine character is placing it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing dominates.
On the scales, the F4-R312 measures 192 kg (423 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.95 HP/kg (1.05 kg per horsepower). The 21-liter (5.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 300 km/h (186 mph).
