Aprilia RSV-4Factory APRC Carbon Special Edition (2012)
In a bold move, Australian importer John Sample Automotive has created the ultimate limited-edition machine: the Aprilia RSV4 Factory APRC Carbon Special Edition.
Only 20 of these exclusive black beauties will be available in Australia, making them highly sought after by enthusiasts and collectors alike. The Italian manufacturer has spared no expense in creating this exceptional motorcycle, drawing from its extensive Racing Department resources to equip it with cutting-edge technology and superior performance.
At the heart of this masterpiece lies a razor-sharp engine that revs like a naturally aspirated road bike but delivers a mid-range torque curve that defies all logic. The riding experience is nothing short of exhilarating, with intuitive APRC electronics working in harmony with high-spec suspension and an Akrapovic exhaust system to deliver unparalleled agility and speed.
The Aprilia RSV4 Factory APRC Carbon Special Edition is the ultimate expression of Italian engineering and a testament to the company’s commitment to innovation and performance.
