Engineered by MV Agusta for the sport motorcycle segment, the 2018 MV Agusta F4 RR relies on a 998 cc (60.9 cu in) liquid-cooled in-line four, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 201 HP (146.7 kW) at 13,600 rpm while maximum torque reaches 111 Nm (81.9 lb-ft) at 9,600 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 201.4 HP per liter and a 4,000 rpm working window between peak torque (9,600 rpm) and peak power (13,600 rpm), the engine character is placing it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing dominates.
On the scales, the F4 RR measures 190 kg (419 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 1.06 HP/kg (0.95 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 830 mm (32.7 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,430 mm (56.3 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 17-liter (4.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 298 km/h (185 mph).
Within MotoLibrary's MV Agusta archive, this model family spans 7 indexed model years from 2012 to 2018, allowing buyers to track year-over-year changes in emissions tuning, weight and equipment.
