Positioned in MV Agusta's sport touring motorcycle lineup, the 2015 MV Agusta Stradale 800 relies on a 798 cc (48.7 cu in) oil & air-cooled in-line three, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 115 HP (83.9 kW) at 11,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 78.5 Nm (57.9 lb-ft) at 9,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 144.1 HP per liter and a 2,000 rpm working window between peak torque (9,000 rpm) and peak power (11,000 rpm), the engine character is placing it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing dominates.
On the scales, the Stradale 800 measures 181 kg (399 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.64 HP/kg (1.57 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 870 mm (34.3 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,460 mm (57.5 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure.
