MV Agusta Stradale 800 2017

The MV Agusta Stradale 800 is no classic touring bike. It’s a fun bike with touring elements, a supermoto tourer with Italian grandiosity – and that’s precisely what makes it so appealing. The ergonomics are unusual, the engine needs revs, the transmission can feel a bit clunky, and the controls take some getting used to. But if you give it a chance, you’ll find yourself with a rare bike full of character, featuring a single swing arm, three cylinder exhaust, standard side panniers and a touch of recklessness that modern bikes often lack.
