The 2016 Brutale 800 will be the entry-level model in the brand's portfolio. It will be sourced from Italy through CKD kits and assembled at Kinetic's facility near Pune. The report claims that the motorcycle would be priced in the range of INR 13-14 lakhs (ex-showroom, Pune).

Unveiled at the 2015 EICMA in Milan, the 2016 version of the Brutale 800 is characterised by some subtle changes in styling including a new LED headlamp, fuel tank, tail section and exhaust. The frame has been revised, as a result of which the wheelbase is 20 mm longer and the trail has increased from 95 mm to 103.5 mm. The Brutale 800 is shod with Pirelli Diablo Rosso III tyres, a first for an OEM application.
