THIS clipping from Motociclismo in Italy shows the completed version of the new middleweight MV Agusta Brutale 675 in testing.
The mini Brutale is based around the Italian firm's upcoming F3, transforming the 675cc triple supersport machine into a naked.
The notable annotations taken from the Italian magazine recognise that the B3 will retain the lines of the Brutale family through the shape of the petrol tank to the tail, taking the design aesthetics from its bigger sibling.
Using the engine from the MV Agusta F3, the bhp for 675 Brutale will drop from the 140bhp of the sports bike to a claimed and more manageable 115bhp for the naked. Also, the now trademark for MV's three cylinder through the triple tier exhaust.
The powerplant is not the sole donor from the supersport F3, the naked will also take the compact frame along with the upside down forks. The weight will be in the area of 165kg, making the Brutale 675 one of the lightest in its category.
