The 2012 MY MV Agusta Brutale 990 R sports a liquid-cooled, four-stroke, 998cc, in-line four cylinder engine mated to a six-speed manual transmission, and can produce 139 horsepower and 106 Nm of torque. Even though it has a smaller power output when you take the 1090 R into consideration, it still is a thrilling ride from the 0 mark and until one reaches the red rev limit in the sixth gear.
Not much has changed from the previous year, it still remaining a machine that better suits the more adventurous among riders, and it looks the part as well.
