Built around MV Agusta's enduro - offroad motorcycle platform, the 2022 MV Agusta Lucky Explorer 9.5 features a 931 cc (56.8 cu in) liquid-cooled in-line three, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 121.4 HP (88.6 kW) at 10,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 102 Nm (75.2 lb-ft) at 7,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through chain final drive. With a specific output of 130.4 HP per liter and a 3,000 rpm working window between peak torque (7,000 rpm) and peak power (10,000 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the Lucky Explorer 9.5 measures 220 kg (485 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.55 HP/kg (1.81 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 850 mm (33.5 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,580 mm (62.2 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 20-liter (5.3 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 3.8 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 526 km (327 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 240 km/h (149 mph).
