The 2015 MV Agusta Turismo Veloce 800 Lusso is based on the streetbike offering, the Brutale but the features and design has been altered to better suit the adventure touring dynamics of the new bike. The bike has been loaded with MV Agusta Chassis Stability Control (MVCSC). The electronic stability control system makes the use of the semi-active suspension setup. Unlike the Brutale which features Marzocchi forks, the 2015 MV Agusta Turismo Veloce 800 Lusso employs Sachs absorbers. The electronic suspension system has sensors embedded in them that make constant calculations to vary the damping settings to offer a plush ride over varying road conditions.
