2023 MV Agusta Rush 1000: A Hyper Naked Beast With Unparalleled Performance
Contents
If you’re a motorcycle enthusiast seeking the ultimate thrill on two wheels, look no further than the 2023 MV Agusta Rush 1000. This streetfighter is part of MV Agusta’s prestigious lineup, and it promises an experience like no other. With its limited production run putting it at the top of the MV Agusta 2023 lineup, owning a Rush 1000 puts you in an exclusive club of lucky riders.
Starting with the powerplant, the MV Agusta Rush is equipped with an inline-four, 998cc engine that delivers a jaw-dropping 208 horsepower at 13,000 RPM. If you need more power, just add the race kit for 212 horsepower! Also included in the kit are a new exhaust, ecu, cnc levers and more! The engine is encased in a CrMo Steel tubular trellis frame that offers both strength and flexibility. Its sturdy architecture coupled with a single-sided aluminum alloy swingarm ensures the Rush’s handling remains sharp, even at the edges of its performance envelope. This results in a motorcycle that isn’t just powerful but also enjoyable to ride.
The Rush isn’t just about raw power though, it offers exceptional handling and control. MV Agusta has packed the Rush full of advanced electronic aids designed to make controlling that power as simple as possible. This includes an 8-level traction control system, electronically assisted quick-shifter, torque control with four maps, and lean-angle-sensitive ABS. There’s even a Motor & Vehicle Integrated Control System (MVICS) with a fully customizable riding mode. The Rush is equipped with electronically adjustable Öhlins suspension, allowing riders to fine-tune their riding experience and achieve optimal handling and comfort.
The Rush 1000 boasts a visually stunning appearance with its unique tailpipes, signature lights clusters, rear frame, and specially designed passenger seat. It is a true work of art on two wheels. While the Italian sport bikes aren’t exactly known for their comfort, the Rush provides a usable single seat and slightly raised handlebars to make those unavoidable straight line journeys liveable. MV Agusta has created a bike that isn’t just a motorcycle; it’s a statement on two wheels.

Safety
MV Agusta has developed controls aimed at performance, non-invasive and capable of exploiting all the acceleration Rush can produce. For example, the FLC wheelie control doesn’t “cut” it abruptly, but rather controls it with a balanced and easily
controllable response. The ABS uses a Continental MK100 module with cornering function that ensures maximum control
even with the bike leaned into a turn.
