Even if it no longer has the domination of the past in competition, Aprilia ensures a marked presence in this field. Commitment to MotoGP, extensive customer program with Factory Works, and one of the best hypersports on the market in the catalog with the RSV4 RR (RF). Its overpowered V4 is a joyful machine, its chassis is impressive in efficiency, and it is certainly one of the wheels that comes closest to a racing machine. By offering this Limited Edition, Noale’s firm gives it a piece of MotoGP.
For some time now, the aerodynamics of world championship prototypes has been influenced by the appearance of winglets. Small fins on the sides of the fairing to boost the support on the front. Aprilia is the first to make this technology available on the market. Via a Factory Works Kit for adaptation, or as standard on the RSV4 RF Limited Edition.
Aprilia presented this model at the opening of the GP of the Americas. The first of its kind, with a set of hollow scoops allowing the simulation of 4 fins. Unveiled in the company of the Gresini team riders, Aleix Espargaro and Scott Redding, he winks at the RS-GP.
To assert its difference even more, this RSV4 is dressed in Italian colors, with a dress inspired by the old little sportswoman AF1 250; with which Loris Reggiani won in 1987 the first of Aprilia’s 294 Grand Prix victories.
Made in only 125 copies, the Limited Edition will only be marketed in the United States (100) and Canada (25). Its serial number is laser engraved on the triple tree. But make no mistake about the fins, this is just cosmetic. The manufacturer specifies that these winglets do not have a functional but stylistic vocation..
This will not prevent the RSV4 from competing in efficiency, with its 201 horses, its suspensions Öhlins, its very successful part-cycle and its advanced electronics.
Will she be the initiator of a new field of investigation for performance? ?
