Test rode an MV Agusta Brutale...

I had the opportunity to demo an 08 MV Agusta BrutaleR from Pro Italia over the weekend and all I can say is WOW! The first thing I noticed is how compact the bike feels, not as roomy as the SD but at 5'11" it felt right. The steering is so tight and fast it is mental, even quicker than the SD. The inline 4 was just begging to be revved to access the 136 ponies. If you think your SD has snatch, try the Brutale, it lives up to its name! I wish I hadn't gone for the demo but I hear cost of ownership is ridiculous so I won’t be putting one in the garage anytime soon. Anyone else ride one of these things?

I think the MV is the best looking naked I have seen. One of the locals I had the pleasure to ride with has one. I did not test ride it as I didn't want to desire another bike and I am not getting rid of the SD.

He has also had trouble getting work done as well. A tyre change requires some specials tools.

there's a new one coming out tht mv just released. The strangest thing is they tooled for completely new body work and chassis while it to the untrained eye looks almost identical. I mean exactly the same, it looks like they might have incorporated a little more room in the seat but cannot confirm that as I was comparing 2 of the same angle 3 quarter shots, a new F5 is supposed to be released in milan as well
