New bike day...#4 - I can't help it, I love Italians
 

Slightly used 2007 MV Agusta Brutale 910R. I saw her and she said, "Comma tu mi, yoo want tu touch-jay mi, yoo tink amma sexxy, yoo lika my red dressa." So I said, "mama mia, che bella!!!"

this is your 5th bike right??? can you adopt me? :lol:

looks sweet, congrats :dthumb:

She's only No. 4 - and she's used so she's a lot cheaper than MSRP.

Gorgeous bike.

I named her Sophia after Sophia Loren.

Its pretty damn spooky how much our bike tastes are alike. Congrats. I've heard those sound great. How bout it?

I hope all you pricks go fornicate yourselves with a hot iron spiked rod infested with Michael Jacksons Saliva.

I'm not a fan of I-4 engines but I like this one. Its power delivery is similar to a V-twin, especially with the engine braking, although the fuel mapping is total crap. Very herky jerky unless it's wide open throttle. I need a slipper clutch too. Downshifted in 2nd in a hot corner and that mother hopped on me. Almost shitted in my pants.

The engine sounds sweet. It sounds like a Ferrari engine, no shit. Very unlike a typical I-4 engine. The exhaust is stock so there ain't much going on there.

Very small bike (but hefty in weight). There is no room for me to move back and forth in the seat at all and I'm very close to the handlebar. Almost moped like.

Niiiiiiiiice dude. Love those things. I bet you have a lot of trouble keeping the front down :whistle:

It's not all that wheelie prone. I'm sure it'll do it with a full wack of throttle, but otherwise, I don't have too much problem with keeping the front down. There's a lot of weight over the front because the ride position is so close to the handlebar.

Thats a sweet bike, but Im still partial to the scooter.

That's because chicks dig it!!!

That picture alone is enough to justify buying the scoot.

Really? The one I rode tried to explain to me that Brutale meant Wheelie... I mean, every gear. Maybe mine wanted to play more than yours :lmao:

Grats man... she's gorgeous!!

It's pretty, that's for sure and definitely gets the juices flowing. Maybe it's because I'm a lot "heavier" than you and with all that weight over the front wheel, it doesn't feel wheelie prone to me. But then I'm used to the Tuono (both current and old, especially the older 1st generation) wanting to come up at the slightest provocation, so anything other than the Tuonos or the Speed Triple aren't all that wheelie prone to me.

PS It lives up to its name, that's for damn sure. The acceleration is brutal, as is the nasty fuel delivery.

I'm loving that Lucky Strikes Ducati(?)

Suzuki RGV500 two-stroker, if memory serves.

Crap you're right. I see the Suzuki now. I thought it said Ducati.

Ducati
Suzuki

Kind of match. Thought it looked odd for a Ducati but I'm fairly new to bikes so thought it might be one.

That also reminds me. There is a guy that comes to a local bike night that rides a Suzuki 500cc two stroke. I was wondering what it was when I first noticed him kick starting it.

Very Sick bike, I love streetfighters! So..... Which one do I get to ride when I come visit! :lol:

Sick!

Nice bike. But check the chain, it looks like a lot of slack in the photo.

That bike is sweet, in lue of harrassing you for the unorriginal thread title, i will merely say

thumbs up.

Glorious looking bike, I demand sound clips now!!:drool::drool:

Contrats man. That swingarm is fucking sick.

that's it! it's official!

fnfalman, you ARE the man!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:drool:

I agree that thing is sexxxxxyyyyyy looks like its ready to eat the pavement up

It still runs stock exhaust so it doesn't sound like much. I don't know, it's weird but I felt like a poseur riding it last night. Most of the MV boys around SoCal are Orientals and they usually only come out with their Dainese or MV Agusta leathers on with their 400-miles-on-the-odometer bikes to a bike night now and then. And that engine is great with WFO throttle inputs.:rockwoot: I'm not sold on the handling yet. It feels heavy to tip in. I kept reading all these stories about how the Brutale would make a better track bike than the Tuono and I just can't see it.

agreed!!!!
