Aprilia’s return to its off-road roots marks a significant shift in the company’s focus, and their 2007 model line boasts four exciting new models. At the forefront of this lineup is the SXV 450 supermoto, featuring a stunning tubular-steel trellis frame wrapped in pressed aluminum side plates.
The true showstopper, however, is the engine: a fuel-injected, 77-degree V-twin that deviates from the typical carbureted single. This innovative powerplant produces 60 horsepower (70 for the larger SXV 550), outshining comparable singles by 10-15 horses.
The riding experience is characterized by its quietness, which belies a surprisingly potent engine. Riders may be fooled into thinking it’s not running at all, but as speed increases, the bike’s presence becomes clear – the footpegs tinkling on the pavement behind them being the only audible clue.
And so, the Aprilia SXV 450 takes its place among the ranks of high-performance supermoto machines, ready to carve up tracks and urban streets alike with precision and agility.
