== Overview ==

MV Agusta Brutal 800 Dragster
























The 2014 MV Agusta Brutale 800 Dragster
borrows heavily from the established Brutale 800 platform, and
differs primarily in aesthetic and purpose.
So down to brass tacks it is,
the key technical specifications of the 2014 MV Agusta Brutale
800 Dragster are the following:


In-line three-cylinder
engine, 798 cc

Bore 79.0 mm, stroke 54.3
mm

Maximum power 125 HP-EC
(92 kW) at 11,600 rpm

Maximum torque 81 Nm at
8,600 rpm

Limiter at 13,000 rpm

Dry weight 167 kg

Power-weight ratio 1.34
kg/HP

Tyres Pirelli DIABLO
Rosso II 120/70  ZR 17 front, 200/50  ZR 17 rear


Unsurprisingly, the MVICS 2.0 electronics system comes standard
on the Dragster, as well as the Bosch 9+ anti-locking brakes
system, which is mated to Brembo calipers (radial mounts at the
front).
MVICS 2.0 includes not only
MV Agustas eight-level traction control system, but also the
companys newest electronically assisted shifting (EAS), which
does quick-shift operations for both upshifts and downshifts.
Ride-by-wire is also a standard element to the package.
The chassis is suspended by
Marzocchi forks up front and a Sachs shock in the rear, and both
units are fully adjustable, which is a welcomed sight for
aggressive street riders.
The fuel tank is 4.39 gal,
which should get riders some good range; and with a seat height
of 31.91 inches (a fraction taller than the Brutale 800), the
Dragster isnt nearly as short as we thought, but it also isnt
a bike relegated to the tall man alone.
Priced at 13,490 (the same
as the Rivale), the Dragster holds nearly a 2,500 euro premium
over the EAS equipped Brutale 800, though that model is without
the Bosch 9+ ABS brakes.




Throttle wide open. Engine at
the rev limit. The rear wheel spinning relentlessly trying to
gain traction, surrounded by a cloud of white smoke, defenning
tire squeal, raw power, biting into the tarmac and devouring it
metre after metre. The MV Agusta Brutale 800 Dragster is all
this and much, much more. It is motorcycling reduced to the
essence of pure riding pleasure. Emotional, freedom.
MV Agusta continues to expand
its motorcycle range: after introducing the Rivale 800, the
emblem of motard-style sports appeal and ultra-dynamic road
performance, the new Brutale 800 Dragster takes the very concept
of 'motorcycling passion' and makes it breathtakingly tangible.
No mere means of transport, a motorcycle is a symbol of freedom,
of our need to get out there and explore and to savour mile
after spine-tingling mile. Experiencing every single second of
that freedom. The new Brutale 800 Dragster embodies and embraces
the ambitions and dreams of every biker, making them nothing
less than on-the-road reality. Thrills.



Unforgettable moments. The
3-cylinder Brutale 675 and 800 have introduced countless riders
to that awesome buzz that goes with riding a high-performance
naked bike. Outstanding ridability, power under constant
control, lightness, great design, and exceptional value for
money. This unmatched combination has made the 3-cylinder
Brutale a huge success. Now, the Brutale 800 Dragster takes a
big step forward into the future, yet does so with an attentive
eye to the past. The most extreme Brutale ever is no fan of
compromise: irreverent and brash, it is essential, brusque,
outspoken and irascible. Packing a powerful punch, the Brutale
800 Dragster takes exhilaration to a whole new level. At the
same time it draws on the ideas that shaped the first 4-cylinder
Brutale bikes, the very essence of the naked concept and
monuments to incomparable styling. Linking yesterday and
tomorrow, the Brutale 800 Dragster embodies both experience and
intuition, symbolising motorcycling past, present and forever.
Pure essence. Pure thrills.



100% Brutale. With consummate Italian
craftsmanship, the Brutale 800 Dragster re-evokes the epic DNA
of the dragster race bikes, specifically built to release
their explosive power in the few seconds that separate clutch
release from the chequered flag. Seconds as scorching hot as the
rubber left smoking on the tarmac. Seconds that speed by in the
blink of a tachometer. In pursuit of unforgettable sensations.
The Brutale 800 Dragster flings open the doors to the idea that
freedom is attainable. On two wheels. Or even on just one.

Features and Benefits
ENGINE
Engineering at the service of
manufacturing efficiency: the 3-cylinder MV Agusta platform
demonstrates how conscientiousness at the concept and design
stages can result in the development of completely original
models from the same, shared technological basis. The new
Brutale 800 Dragster is no exception to that rule, once again
highlighting the versatility of the cutting-edge MV Agusta
platform centred on the 3-cylinder engine - the power unit that
has made the greatest developmental progress in its market
segment. The goals laid out in the project brief were highly
ambitious: performance at the peak of their respective
displacement categories (675 and 800), maximum elasticity, low
fuel consumption and a torque curve spread evenly across the
entire power range. And unprecedented compactness: the
three-cylinder MV Agusta engine, built to achieve all these
goals, weighs just 52 kg, giving improved output flexibility and
better load distribution on the axles, on both the new Brutale
800 Dragster and the other models that already possess this
feisty in-line 3-cylinder Italian engine. Key technical features
include the shell-cast closed-deck crankcase with integral
bore liners; the need for compactness has also imposed full
integration of the water and oil circuits and the respective
service pumps. Just as significant - and exclusive - is the
choice of counter-rotating crankshaft, a solution with origins
in the racing world where ride responsiveness has absolute
priority, and the only judge of performance is the stopwatch.
The counter-rotating crankshaft reduces inertia during changes
of direction because it lowers that same inertia during
deceleration; this enhances handling, the excellence of which is
already a built-in top-priority feature of the MV Agusta chassis
set-up. Compared to previous 3-cylinder configurations, the one
specially developed for the Brutale 800 Dragster focuses on
fast-response, linear power output, putting a mighty roar into
this roadster. The 125 HP power peak is reached at 11,600 rpm,
while the maximum torque of 81 Nm comes at 8,600 rpm. Completing
this highly sophisticated package is the removable 6-speed
gearbox, with ratios designed to ensure awesome acceleration and
a sports-category top speed should the bike be unleashed on the
track.



ELECTRONICS
The new MVICS (Motor&Vehicle Integrated
Control) injection-ignition system features the very latest
software and an engine control strategy first implemented, with
great success, on the Rivale 800 and now extended to the entire
3-cylinder MY2014 range. MVICS also features the Eldor EM2.0
engine control unit and a Mikuni Full Ride-By-Wire throttle
body. The fully integrated management allows, via the
instruments and the handlebar switches, easy adjustment of
numerous user-settable parameters. More specifically, the system
lets the rider configure the torque setting with 4 different
mappings. Three of these are set directly by the manufacturer
and named according to the relative riding conditions (Sport,
Normal and Rain) while the fourth leaves the rider free to
define, within established limits, all the individual
parameters: engine response, rev limiter, engine torque
response, throttle sensitivity, engine braking. As one would
expect, 8-level traction control (which can be disengaged) is
also included: the relative algorithms have been tweaked to
perfection for maximum precision, a must on a bike such as the
new Brutale 800 Dragster as one of its defining characteristics
is astounding acceleration.



CHASSIS SET-UP
The frame configuration, which has
characterised the 3-cylinder platform since its inception,
features an ALS tubular steel load-bearing structure,
supplemented by lightweight aluminum alloy plates. This
combination forms part of that production flexibility concept
which inspired the 3-cylinder project and consequently allows
the design of specially-developed frames for each model without
disrupting the underlying look or essence. Note that this same
set-up has characterised MV Agusta models since the launch of
the astonishing F4: today's 3-cylinder Italian-built MV Agusta
bikes offer up an even more highly evolved version of the
concept. The front, tubular section employs a steel alloy with
exceptional metallurgical qualities that, while extremely
lightweight, provides outstanding torsional stiffness,
especially in those areas most subject to stress, such as the
steering head. The aluminum alloy plates close off the
structure at the rear and act as the fulcrum for the
single-sided swingarm. A compact wheelbase of just 1,380 mm,
identical to that of the Brutale 800, strikes a perfect balance,
ensuring both excellent handling and stability; the 95 mm trail
boosts the already outstanding front end performance, making for
enhanced ridability and bike control. Another eye-catching
feature perfectly in keeping with the Brutale 800 Dragster
design ethos is the attentiongrabbing Pirelli DIABLO Rosso II
rear tire, having a width of 200 and a shoulder of 50. The
suspension system features fully adjustable units, allowing
personalisation of compression and rebound settings, as well as
providing a selection of spring pre-load options. The Ø 43 mm
upside-down Marzocchi fork offers 125 mm of travel; the Sachs
rear shock gives the single-sided swingarm - also in aluminum
alloy - 125 mm of travel. The seat, with a height of 811 mm, has
been redesigned to improve comfort and function: it also boasts
a craftsman-like finish with stylishly stitched seams. The rider
can also count on even more functional foot pegs and supports,
and new heel guards which, just like the wheel rims, have been
specially customised for the Dragster. Equipped with first class
Brembo components, the braking system relies on a pair of Ø 320
mm floating front discs, equipped with 4-piston callipers (Ø 32
mm); the rear unit, instead, has a Ø 220 mm steel disc and
mounts a 2-piston caliper (Ø 34 mm).
