PurposeBuilt for fast, comfortable long-distance riding with the ability to also carve up twisty roads with genuine sport-bike enthusiasm.
Rider FitA 850mm seat height and moderate 191kg dry weight make it approachable, though the sporty riding position still asks for reasonable fitness on longer days.
CharacterA characterful, high-revving three-cylinder engine paired with premium suspension gives it an exotic, engaging personality rare in the touring class.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for off-road adventures, novice riders wanting a relaxed cruiser feel, or anyone needing a budget-friendly commuter.

2017 MV Agusta Turismo Veloce 800 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 850mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with tip-toe one foot on the 2017 MV Agusta Turismo Veloce 800, with a cramped knee angle of around 75 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
