Engineered by MV Agusta for the sport touring motorcycle segment, the 2017 MV Agusta Turismo Veloce 800 pairs a 798 cc (48.7 cu in) oil & air-cooled in-line three, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 110 HP (80.3 kW) at 10,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 83 Nm (61.2 lb-ft) at 8,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 137.8 HP per liter and a 2,000 rpm working window between peak torque (8,000 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 Turismo Veloce 800 measures 191 kg (421 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.58 HP/kg (1.74 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 1,420 mm (55.9 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure.
