Aprilia RSV-4APRC SBK Special Edition (2013)

The Aprilia RSV4APRC SBK Special Edition is a limited-production masterpiece, commemorating Max Biaggi’s 2012 World Superbike Championship victory. This exclusive model boasts the same features as its APRC ABS counterpart, including the cutting-edge Bosch three-level dual-channel ABS system and Brembo M430 calipers.

With an enhanced engine delivering 181.4 horsepower at the crank and a staggering 86.3 lbs-ft of peak torque @ 10,500 rpm, riders will experience unbridled exhilaration on the open road or track. The refined Aprilia Traction Control and new map 1 settings provide precision handling, while the revised engine positioning ensures ideal weight distribution.

The result is an unparalleled riding experience, with improved braking and cornering capabilities courtesy of the redesigned fuel tank and upgraded Brembo components. Whether on a twisty mountain road or a high-speed circuit, this Special Edition will leave you breathless – it’s the ultimate expression of Aprilia’s racing heritage and technological prowess.
