Lighter, more efficient, more fun…. The first two arguments are those of all Factory versions of Aprilia (RSV-R 1000, Tuono R, RSV4); a notable optimization to raise the level of machine efficiency a step further. The third is for the sassy side of the machine.
In turn, the fiery supermoto Dorsoduro is available in a Factory version. Impossible not to suspect that this version has hot blood: the red frame barely hidden under the black dress betrays a bubbling temperament. To earn the Factory designation, an Aprilia must meet certain criteria. It starts with the adoption of carbon fiber parts. On the SVM 750, it is the front fender, the large side scoops, and most of the tank trim that benefits from the nobility of this material.
Second point, the suspensions. Factory are normally equipped with elements Öhlins. But this is not the case on the Dorsoduro. Small disappointment, because the prestigious designation made us believe it. This does not mean that the fork and shock absorber remain standard. They are here fully adjustable, in preload, compression and relaxation. The basic version is not entitled to so many‘attentions to fine-tune your driving behavior.
With this toy, we now have something to do seriously. The 92 hp twin is whipped by a triple mapping control box and Ride by Wire injection. The new petal brake discs are bitten by Brembo 4-piston radial calipers. On the chassis side, the Aprilia technique suffers from no criticism, except a little on the damping level, which this Factory version should correct. Allow around 800 euros more for this Dorsoduro Factory, and an envelope of 600 euros more if you want ABS (planned for September).
