The 2018 Aprilia RSV-4RF is a masterclass in high-performance engineering. Its Sachs fork with 43mm stanchions and H-lins NIX fork with TIN surface treatment provide exceptional front-end poise, while forged billet aluminium radial calliper mountings ensure precise braking control.
A raft of cutting-edge technology has been integrated into the bike’s chassis, including an adjustable spring preload and hydraulic compression and rebound damping. The double-braced aluminium swingarm features a new progressive linkage, further enhancing the bike’s agility and responsiveness.
But it’s not just about the hardware – the RSV-4RF’s 1078cc V4 engine is a revelation, delivering 201 horsepower and an exhilarating riding experience that will leave even the most seasoned riders grinning from ear to ear. And with H-lins TTX monoshock, Brembo M50 monobloc radial callipers, and APRC electronic controls package featuring Cornering ABS and Downshift Assist, this bike truly is a championship-winning machine.
