STRANGE NAME but this is the 165bhp Brutale Cannonball, from Italian motorcycle manufacturer MV Agusta.
The naked 1098cc, which is being touted by MV as 'exclusively for racing', produces 20bhp more wallop than the standard Brutale 1090RR, thanks to various engine mods (new ECU, cylinder heads, hotter cams) as well as the nifty handmade titanium exhaust.
No word on price but expect the new naked to cost a healthy dose more wonga than the standard £13,950 Brutale 1090RR.
