Review

The 2011 MV Agusta Brutale 920 represents a pivotal year in the Brutale's evolution, continuing the model lineage known for its aggressive styling and potent performance. Positioned in the competitive naked bike segment, it directly rivals models like the Ducati Monster 1100 EVO and Aprilia Tuono V4 R, offering a distinctive Italian flair to the market.

At the heart of the 2011 Brutale 920 lies a potent 909.0 ccm inline-four engine, producing a maximum power of 128.7 HP (94.0 kW) at 10500 RPM. This powerplant generates a substantial torque of 95.0 Nm (9.7 kgf-m or 70.1 ft.lbs) at 8100 RPM, ensuring strong acceleration throughout the rev range. The claimed top speed is 265.0 km/h (164.7 mph). The motorcycle's dry weight is 190.0 kg (418.9 pounds), contributing to its agile handling. Fuel capacity is 23.00 litres (6.08 US gallons), allowing for reasonable range between fill-ups.

The Brutale 920 offers a relatively upright stance typical of naked bikes, providing good visibility and control. The seat height is 825 mm (32.5 inches), which may be a consideration for shorter riders, even at its lowest setting if adjustable. The suspension setup is firm, contributing to precise handling and stability, but it may translate to a less forgiving ride on rougher surfaces. The riding experience emphasizes control and engagement, with responsive throttle and brakes.

The 2011 MV Agusta Brutale 920 is designed for experienced riders who appreciate Italian design and a raw, unfiltered riding experience. It appeals to those seeking a stylish and powerful naked bike with a focus on performance and handling. If you value distinctive styling and are willing to accept a slightly less refined experience in exchange for character, the Brutale 920 is a compelling option.
