MV Agusta reveals 2013 Brutale lineup, including a cheaper 675

October 23, 2012 by Bike India Team Leave a Comment

They might not have had much to showcase at the Intermot this year, but Italian marque MV Agusta have all the plans to make the coming year exciting for the enthusiasts as they showcased the 2013 lineup of their popular Brutale model recently- the Brutale 1090 (standard), 1090 R and 1090 RR.

Though all three share the same in-line four cylinder 1078-cc powerplant, it’s the engine configuration for different power and torque figures that make them distinct. Where the 1090 (standard) and 1090R offer 146 PS of peak power, the 1090 RR comes with 160 PS of peak power in hand. The bike has both water and oil cooling with separate radiators and uses a cassette-style removable six-speed constant mesh transmission and multi-plate clutch. The 1090 RR also comes with a slipper clutch. Also, all the 2013 models of the Brutale 1090 come with improved suspension, fully adjustable 50mm inverted front fork, double silencers, apart from some other cosmetic changes.

Another good news for MV Agusta fans is that the company is thinking on the lines of getting a cheaper and better looking Brutale 675 in 2013. The price tag of the new 2013 Brutale 675 is expected to be Rs 6.28 lakh for the standard variant and Rs 6.56 lakh for the EAS (Electronic Assist Shift), in the Italian market.

Hit Girl to ride a purple Ducati in Kick-Ass 2

October 19, 2012 by Bike India Team Leave a Comment

So here’s the thing, have you ever wondered why do cape crusaders and super heroes love to have a pair of slick wheels? Well apparently it’s for helping them save the world and flaunt their larger than life style.

Now many of you movie freaks might be aware of a certain movie by the name of Kick-Ass, which had insane butt-kicking by teenage superheroes. Now for their second coming in the movie Kick-Ass 2, movie character ‘Hit Girl’ a pint-sized assassin will ride a purple colour Ducati Panigale and fight crime.

This might come as a surprise for many that Hit Girl actress, 15-year old Chloe Moretz, can’t ride,let alone do all the stunts and so a stunt-woman has taken over the motorcycle riding duties for her. As in the graphic novel Hit Girl rode a motorcycle, but the comic book’s custom shopper has been replaced with a state-of-the-art Ducati in order to to widen the appeal of the movie. With this super heroine ready to battle the bad guys, we bet the ‘Deep Purple Ducati’ will smoke them out.
