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!!!"

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

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.

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.
