2014
The 2014 MV Agusta Brutale 1090 continues the Brutale's legacy as a raw and aggressive naked bike. Building on years of evolution, this model aimed to refine the Brutale formula, offering a potent combination of power and handling in a visually striking package. The Brutale 1090 directly competes with other high-performance naked bikes such as the BMW S1000R and the Ducati Monster 1200.
At the heart of the 2014 Brutale 1090 lies a potent 1078.0 ccm (65.78 cubic inches) engine. This inline-four produces a maximum power output of 142.0 HP (103.6 kW) at 10300 RPM, ensuring rapid acceleration and impressive top-end speed. The engine also boasts a substantial torque figure of 112.0 Nm (11.4 kgf-m or 82.6 ft.lbs) at 8100 RPM, providing ample pulling power across the rev range. All of this grunt propels the motorcycle to a top speed of 265.0 km/h (164.7 mph). Despite its muscular performance, the bike maintains a reasonable weight of 183.0 kg (403.4 pounds).
The riding experience on the Brutale 1090 is characterized by its directness and responsiveness. The upright stance provides good visibility and control, while the chassis offers agility in corners. While not a dedicated touring machine, the 23.00 litres (6.08 US gallons) fuel tank allows for decent range between fill-ups. The seat height of 825 mm (32.5 inches) might present a challenge for shorter riders, although the aggressive styling and exposed engine contribute to the bike's distinct character.

It appeals to those seeking a naked bike with distinctive styling and a powerful engine.
