We have already seen on other occasions that theoretical power is one thing and the real power that the bike has at the wheel is another, and the MV Agusta Enduro Veloce is also in the same situation. As we always say and now we take the opportunity to remind you, the engine power is measured at the crankshaft and that is why it is different from the power that we will have at the wheel.
There are power losses between the crankshaft and the wheel, which are caused by the transmission and all the elements that transmit power to the road. It is pure physics and it is inevitable, at least for the moment, that there is a discrepancy between the two.
The same goes for the MV Agusta Enduro Veloce, which our colleagues at Motociclismo.it have put on the test bench to find out what it really is. Unfortunately, we don’t have the videos we like so much on this occasion, but we do have the model’s figures.
The real figures of the MV Agusta Enduro Veloce
First of all, we must remember the power and torque that the MV Agusta Enduro Veloce declares in its technical data sheet. These data are relative to the crankshaft and in this case we are talking about a maximum power of 124 hp at 10,000 revolutions per minute and a torque of 102 Nm at 7,000 revolutions per minute.
However, the unit that was tested, although it practically nailed the maximum power and torque data, the truth is that they reached different revolutions. The power was 123.5 hp, but it was reached 150 rpm earlier, at 9,850 revolutions per minuteThe same goes for the torque, a negligible difference with 101.5 Nm although in this case 150 revolutions per minute above.
And what about the power that reaches the wheel of the MV Agusta Enduro Veloce? Well, it is achieved at the same revolutions as those shown on the test bench but with a logical loss. 110.4 hp at 9,850 rpm and 90.8 Nm at 7,150 rpm. Typically we lose between 10 and 15% and it is within these parameters, so we can say that everything is in order with the Italian trail bike.
