Mv Agusta Rush 1000
The Mv Agusta Rush 1000 has a top speed of ~302 km/h (estimated; electronically limited), produces 208 hp and weighs 186 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.8/10.
The MV Agusta Rush 1000 was introduced in 2021 as an ultra-exclusive, limited-edition naked hyperbike, with only 300 units produced worldwide. It is based on the Brutale 1000 RR platform, sharing its hand-built inline-four engine and chassis, but featuring a dramatically restyled carbon fiber body inspired by MV Agusta's racing heritage and designed to evoke a raw, stripped-down aesthetic. The Rush 1000 is notable for its extreme exclusivity, premium pricing, and the use of extensive carbon fiber components, making it one of the most collectible modern MV Agusta models.

What Buyers Should Know
RC Formula Derived Engine
The Rush 1000 shares its 998cc inline-four engine architecture with MV Agusta's RC racing program, producing around 208hp. This exotic pedigree makes it a collector's piece but also means specialized servicing costs are significantly higher than Japanese rivals.
Electronics & Cooling Watch
Early Rush 1000 units have reported sensitivity in the electronic rider aids system and occasional overheating in slow traffic due to the high-performance engine tune. Always verify the cooling system condition and check for software update history before buying.
Strong Resale Retention
With only a limited production run, the Rush 1000 holds its value exceptionally well compared to mass-market superbikes. Low-mileage, well-documented examples can retain close to 80-85% of original value, making it one of MV Agusta's better investments.
Generations & Specs by Year
Initial production run; 208 hp inline-four, carbon fiber bodywork, limited 300-unit production run.
Used Buyer Review
"An intoxicating, high-maintenance exotic that rewards meticulous, patient owners only."
$28,000-$38,000 usedThe Rush 1000 is genuinely one of the most visually arresting motorcycles you can buy used, and that 998cc inline-four pulls hard enough to embarrass plenty of superbikes. MV Agusta tuned it specifically for the Rush — 208hp in standard trim — and it feels every bit of that on the road. The electronics package is properly sophisticated, and the Öhlins suspension front and rear is genuinely excellent rather than badge-engineered nonsense. Here's the honest part though: budget serious money beyond the purchase price. MV Agusta's dealer network is thin, parts are expensive and slow, and these bikes demand regular, careful maintenance. Service intervals aren't forgiving if you ignore them. Check the throttle bodies have been balanced, verify the exhaust headers haven't cracked — a known weak point — and demand full service history. Walk away from anything vague. Find a good one with documented history and you've got a genuinely special machine that appreciates more than it depreciates. Find a neglected one and you've bought yourself a very expensive hobby.
