One of many things that was done to reduce noise was to use smaller teeth in the primary drive and more of them; now there are three teeth mating together where before there were only two. That also reduces driveline lash; the MV has an imperceptible amount, which also adds to its high-quality feel. “Things you can’t see that cost money,” smiles Engineer Gillen.

On the road in the damp, riding in a group, I never gave the brakes a really good squeeze, but they’re big expensive Brembos fed by Kevlar hoses, with more than enough power for street use, and sensitive enough in the damp for nice one-digit modulation. Bosch ABS with Rear Lift Mitigation challenges the idea that using the front brake will throw you over the handlebars.

Things had dried up for the most part on the way back down the mountain with a few wet areas left in the shade, and I furtively sniffed toward the Brutale’s performance edge like an aging badger. Gillen, who’s a refugee of Buffalo, NY, says they raised the center of gravity of the bike a bit, and gave the rear suspension more negative travel, to promote increased weight transfer and therefore increased mechanical grip via the bike’s all-new Pirelli Diablo Rosso 3’s – trickle-down knowledge from racing.

These are things I didn’t personally feel qualified to truly evaluate on the damp and chilly road to Ronda, not that anything to do with the bike held me back in the least. I love its magnificent engine wail, perfect auto-shift gearbox, and what felt like a perfectly well-controlled, solid chassis at my pace.

Every MV I’ve ridden does seem to have a certain dynamic, an expensive, solid feel. Maybe it’s psychological, because there’s nothing all that special about the bike’s 43mm Marzocchi fork and Sachs shock except for MV’s tuning. Back in Marbella at the bottom of the mountain, I realized I’d forgotten to make the switch from Normal to Sport; probably the missing 16 hp was what let the French kid leave me in the dust.
