Forum post about MV Augusta Brutale
This striking naked machine is built around the F4 sportsbike platform, with redesigned bodywork. The styling i radical and aggressive (hence the name), dominated by the hunched profile of the tank and the distinctive double parabola headlamp. The engine is the same radial-valved fuel injected design as fitted to the F4, producing an impressive 95kW (127bhp). A stiff Tig-welded steel trellis frame mounts top of the range Showa upside-down forks and Sachs rear shock with a magnesium singel-sided swingarm and Nissan six-piston brakes. But it’s the styling of the Brutale , as well as the high-spec components that make it so typically Latin. The Oro was a limited edition version, and a lowes-spec “S” (Starda) version is also avalible.
