Overview
Aprilia RSV4 Factory
The RSV4 Factory is born from the track. It is not just a motorcycle; it’s a WSBK machine with lights. Aprilia has continuously refined this platform, resulting in one of the most balanced and handleable superbikes in the world.
The Legendary V4 1100 Engine
The 65° V4 engine is the heart of the RSV4:
| Feature | Details |
|---|---|
| Displacement | 1,099cc |
| Configuration | 65° V4 |
| Power | 217 HP |
| Torque | 125 Nm |
It offers the torque character of a V-twin with the screaming top-end of a four-cylinder. The sound is unmistakable—pure MotoGP energy.
Chassis & Handling
The chassis is the RSV4’s crown jewel. It allows for adjustments that strictly racing bikes usually offer:
- Adjustable headstock position and rake
- Adjustable engine height
- Adjustable swingarm pivot height
The Öhlins Smart EC 2.0 electronic suspension constantly adapts to riding conditions, offering the perfect balance between support under braking and absorption over bumps.
APRC Electronics
The Aprilia Performance Ride Control (APRC) uses a six-axis inertial platform to manage:
- ATC (Traction Control)
- AWC (Wheelie Control)
- AEM (Engine Maps)
- AEB (Engine Brake)
- ALC (Launch Control)
The RSV4 remains the benchmark for chassis feedback and V4 performance. It’s a scalpel for the track.
