most handsome cruiser bike of 2011 Brutale by MV Agusta

The Brutale series of motorcycles are manufactured by MV Agusta of Italy. Its style is classified as a naked bike and the series consists of several models powered by either 749.5 cc or 909.1 cc inline4-dohc-engines.
Standard models include the Brutale 750S, Brutale 910S, Brutale 910R and new for 2008 Brutale 1078RR. In September 2009, MV Agusta revealed two new 2010 Brutale models - the 990R and 1090RR.

 Brutale pushes the limits of research and technology in its 2010 models - the 990R and the 1090RR. With its state-of-the-art components, the 2010 Brutale delivers acclaimed performance and ease of riding, in keeping with the “Made in MV” formula: a commitment to excellence in componentry, in the design of which MV Agusta is at the forefront. The “easy” handling enable the Brutale to compete with the Japanese bikes : it is agile and instinctive in the hands of the rider. It excels on the racetrack, and its eclectic elegance and charm thrill even the casual admirer.


To achieve these results, it was necessary to replace 85% of the components, but the new Brutale has preserved the significant style features of previous versions. The work carried out on the 990R and 1090RR cannot be defined as mere restyling; rather, it is a silent MV Agusta revolution.


  • Front wheel rim, either gravity die-cast, or forged
  • Front brake disk
  • Suspensions Internals (oil dynamics and components of the front fork)
  • Instrument cluster (design, logic definition and information handling)
  • Brake pump with integrated tank
  • Headlight
  • Mirrors with directional indicators
  • Handlebar
  • Handgrips
  • Steering damper
  • Fuel pump
  • Fuel filler cap
  • Inner damper (oil dynamics and inside components)
  • Rear swingarm
  • Rear turn signals
  • Taillight
  • Pressure die-cast rear taillight support
  • Rear wheel hub, either gravity die-cast, or forged
  •  
Many of these parts have been designed and crafted by MV Agusta, rather than sourced from market suppliers, thereby affording technical and aesthetic perfection.
Of all the world’s manufacturers, only MV Agusta obsessively pursues aesthetic perfection in its component design, because its aim is to make beautiful what others make only functional. And, without being presumptuous, the Brutale is the best example there is on the market.

Nacked hot bike MV Agusta Brutale 990R

The four-cylinder engine, with its Ferrari-designed, radially arranged valves, revolves freely to well over 11,000rpm, making 137bhp on the way, but it suffers from a too-sudden delivery when turning the twist grip from fully closed. This is annoying on a race track (and some Brutales will be used on track days) but also uncomfortable around town, where progress can be lurching.
It's much better than older Brutales but needs improving, and MV accepts this, saying work is continuing on the fuelling.


Judging by the new F4 superbike, the factory knows how to sort this and I'd expect full production versions to be better. To put it in perspective, I've ridden recent Japanese bikes which are similar.
The performance is very strong, with plenty of urge at lower revs, much more useful for dispatching twistier roads, and while the 1090RR does this better, the 990R is a lot of fun.
You don't get the muscularity of Triumph's Speed Triple, the bike which sets the class standards, but where the British bike scores over most fours with its growling exhaust, this four-cylinder doesn't disappoint in that respect.
It's an easier place to sit now, with room for taller riders despite the bike's compact dimensions, although the seat is fairly high.
But the ride quality is good, but when the bike's being thrown around the 990R's suspension doesn't offer the same outstanding control of the bigger and costlier 1090RR version.
That's also when you notice the bike's weight. While it's been substantially updated for 2010, with 85 per cent of components renewed according to MV, it's still a decade-old design at heart, and it feels hefty when changing direction compared with many newer machines.
To be fair, some of this comes from having a very useful 5.1-gallon fuel tank (we had no chance to measure economy but this promises a minimum 200-mile range).
The mass helps stability, though it gets a little more vague at high speeds compared with the 1090RR.
There aren't any inherent problems, its just that the 990R is £2,300 cheaper than the 1090RR, and suspension quality is one of the areas where costs have been cut. But it's still an accomplished set-up.
You also have to manage without the 1090RR's traction-control system, while ABS is not an option, although the Brembo brakes offer excellent control of their power. And you get single colour rather than twin-tone paint...
Bike buyers these days generally go for the higher-spec versions where they're available, but with the Brutale it's worth thinking about how you'll be using it.
If you crave the performance and ride hard, then the 1090RR is worth the extra. If you want a naked bike with a classic badge and strong all-round performance, the 990R is more than sufficient, it's hugely enjoyable and surprisingly practical.
