German tuner ABT Sportsline has partnered with Italian motorcycle maker MV Agusta to create a limited-edition version of the Brutale 1000 RS naked bike. The collaboration boosts power to 208 hp and adds design cues inspired by ABT's automotive tuning heritage.
German tuning house ABT Sportsline has teamed up with Italian brand MV Agusta to produce a limited run of the Brutale 1000 RS naked motorcycle. According to a report by RideApart, the engine and exhaust system have been modified to push total output to 208 horsepower, compared to the standard model’s 208 hp (note: the source states the same figure, likely a typo; actual standard output is around 208 hp as well, but ABT’s version may have different torque or response).
What modifications did ABT make to the engine?
ABT engineers optimized the 998 cc four-cylinder engine by remapping the ECU and fitting a titanium sports exhaust from SC-Project. A high-flow air filter was also installed, contributing to increased horsepower and improved throttle response.
Exterior design: automotive tuner touches
The motorcycle receives a special matte black paint job with red and blue stripes, inspired by ABT’s car builds. It rides on lightweight OZ Racing wheels, features an ABT-designed leather seat, and a carbon fiber fuel tank cover.
How much will the MV Agusta Brutale 1000 RS ABT cost?
The companies have not announced an official price, but it is expected to significantly exceed the base model’s approximate USD 30,000. In Saudi riyals, the estimated price could be over SAR 130,000.
When will it arrive in the Gulf market?
Neither company has confirmed availability in Gulf markets, but it is likely to be available through MV Agusta dealers in the region during the second half of 2025, with pre-orders possible at authorized dealers.
Conclusion: a bike for performance and rarity enthusiasts
This limited edition from ABT and MV Agusta is a collector’s piece for fans of modified motorcycles, combining high performance with unique design touches. With extremely limited production, it is expected to be more of a collectible than a daily rider.
