MV Agusta Rush MY 21. The most extreme naked of all time

MV Agusta takes the ultra #naked concept to an extreme with #rush. Created as a limited edition of just 300, this unique and exclusive bike raises the bar in terms of design and performance. Never has a #naked boasted such an elevated style and finish.

For 2021, #rush gets a number of updates that make it even sportier but also safer to use on the road. This bike is unrivalled on the market and comes with an equally exclusive kit to further heighten its performance and aesthetics.

STATE OF THE ART FOUR-CYLINDER ENGINE

An inline-four with radial valves and titanium connecting rods. The #rush engine a state of-the-art homologated motorcycle engine.
Having undergone continual technological development, it takes another step in 2021, with new components that reduce internal friction.

The extremely high-performance engine uses sophisticated materials and flaunts record-breaking power for a 1000 cc #naked, delivering 208 HP at 13,000 rpm.

Timing is updated, with the introduction of new cam phasing designed to offer more favourable torque at low/medium revs
without detracting from the intense drive and acceleration that has always distinguished this engine.

The use of a DLC (Diamond Like Carbon) coating for the surfaces of the valve buckets cuts down on friction and improves reliability.

The addition of new primary drive gearing helps reduce friction between the gears, while the clutch system has been strengthened to improve reliability, especially during the extreme starts guaranteed by Launch Control, while the third generation EAS 3.0 electronic gearbox has a new sensor for more precise shifting and more comfortable insertion.

The four-exit exhaust, an unmistakeable MV Agusta trademark, is more eye-catching than ever on the #rush, its main collector
boasting an updated structure that emphasises the unique sound of the four-cylinder, despite what is now a Euro 5 compliant engine.
