MV Agusta's Brutale 1078RR has been voted as the most beautiful motorbike of the Milan International Motorcycle Show.
The motorcycle manufacturer's vehicle won the accolade after more than 26,000 visitors to the show cast their votes in a competition organised by Italian specialist motorcycle magazine Motociclismo.
Accruing over a quarter (25.7 per cent) of the vote, the MV was followed in second place by Ducati's new Monster 696 (15.2 per cent), while the HP2 Sport from BMW came in third position.
MV Agusta's creation, which features a bigger 1078cc engine for next year, tops a range that also includes the Brutale 910S and 989R.
Features of the motorcycle include a 154 horse power engine, forged wheels, radial Brembo Monobloc brakes and suspension featured on the F4 312RR.
Other highlights of the show included Yamaha unveiling its new range of 2008 motocycles and scooters incuding the T-MAX Maxi and the YZF-R6.
