Mr Firodia said:

The SKD route essentially means the engine won't be assembled here, but we bolt on the engine to the chassis and body here. Homologation formalities are almost done and we will launch the Brutale 800 in July. The price isn't finalised yet, but we intend to price it around INR 15 lakh, plus-minus 10 per cent.

The MV Agusta Brutale gets twin 320 mm disc up front and a 220 mm unit in the rear. Switchable ABS has been sourced from Bosch and the bike gets premium Pirelli Diablo Rosso III tyres.
