MAXDESIGN

SINGLE SILENCERThe same level of attention and innovation is found in all the other elements:like the compact single silencer, whose shape is designed to increase the spacebetween the bike and asphalt, also during the tightest of bends.

BOARD COMPUTERUltra compact and advanced technology also for the instrument panel.The mixed (digital and analogue) type instrument panel receives all theinformation from the CAN line turning into a real self-diagnostic system for thevehicle. All functions are controlled by the Mode control on the handlebar.

RSV4 FACTORYS IRRESISTIBILITY CAN BE PUT DOWN TO THE FACT

THAT IT HAS BEEN DESIGNED WITH ITS APPEARANCE COMING

SECOND IN ORDER OF IMPORTANCE. THIS BECAUSE IT WAS

CREATED FOR THE WORLD OF COMPETITIONS WHERE EVERY INCH,

EVERY OUNCE AND EVERY THOUSANDTH OF A SECOND COUNT.

A BIKE AS COMPACT AND AS EFFICIENT AS THIS ONE HAS NEVER

BEEN SEEN BEFORE: THATS WHY IT IS SO BEAUTIFUL.

THE SHAPE

OF PERFORMANCE.The chassis and engine are an integral part of the bikesdesign together with just a few other highly influentialelements, designed looking at the track all the time andmodelled in the wind gallery.

Search for optimum engine breathing and the highestaerodynamic levels has led to the creation of acompletely unique front with large air intakes for theairbox, lights that outline the edge of the top fairingand with the turn indicators integrated in the rear-viewmirrors. The spectacular tail fairing offers excellent LEDluminosity, minimising the surface while increasing thebikes aerodynamic efficiency.

THE ONLY STANDARDBIKE THAT FITSITSELF ON YOU.

RSV4 FACTORY IS THE FIRST STANDARD FOUR CYLINDER BIKE THAT IS ACTUALLY

READY FOR THE TRACK. CREDIT GOES TO A REVOLUTIONARY DESIGNING

PHILOSOPHY OF THE COMPONENTS AND TO THE CUTTING EDGE RACING

TECHNOLOGY AVAILABLE TODAY PLUS THE FACT THAT ADJUSTMENTS ARE PRETTY

MUCH INFINITE: TO FIT LIKE A GLOVE FOR DIFFERENT RIDING STYLES AND CIRCUITS.

For the first time on a standard motorcycle, the multi-adjustable suspensions are combined withthe possibility of adjusting the headstock position and rake, the rear end height, the swingarmpivot height and even the position of the engine. No other bike on the market offers such amaniacal level of customisation with such ease... and probably no other bike will be able to doas much in the near future. On Aprilia RSV4 Factory, as soon as you are on the track you arealready in front of everyone else!

CASSETTE TYPE GEARBOX

Ready for the track solutions also for the gearbox:cassette-type. With this expedient the ratios can bechanged quickly and maintenance is simple. The clutchis equipped with a mechanical slipper system to optimiseengine braking control and stability under hard braking.

TAILOREDACCESSORIES.

FROM THE COMPONENTS FOR RACING TO THE RIDERS

CLOTHES, APRILIA HAS DESIGNED AN EXCLUSIVE

RANGE OF ACCESSORIES FOR RSV4 FACTORY WITH

MANIACAL CARE TO EACH DETAIL. NEW TARGETS

ARE REACHED IN PERFORMANCE AND APPEARANCE,

EXPLOITING THE MOST ADVANCED TECHNOLOGIES AND

MATERIALS, GOING TO THE RACETRACK WITH A G REAT

AND WINNING LOOK: YOU AND YOUR RSV4 FACTORY

WILL BE EVEN MORE UNIQUE.

Made entirely in titanium with a carbon terminal, the Akrapovicexhaust for use on the racetrack weighs less than 5 kgand, guaranteeing increased torque and power, improvesacceleration when coming out of a bend. The thermoformedtop fairing increases aerodynamic penetration and protectionagainst turbulence and high speeds. Made especially for theRSV4 Factory, the hlins TTX shock absorber is completelyadjustable with mountings machined from single billets ofmetal. The aluminium footrests, also machined from singlebillets of metal, can be adjusted in 9 different positions andallow micrometric calibration of the gear and brake controls.

You can tailor your RSV4 Factory in its appearance andimprove its performance on the track with a complete rangeof special accessories. Components in carbon fibre to lightenand enhance its prestige. Mirror covers, number plate cases,half-handlebar and other elements machined from single

billets of metal. Protection buffers with an original triangularshape protect the bodywork, giving it a more aggressive look.Customised service stand and RSV 4 breathable bike cover forjust another touch of class.

Aprilia has even thought about the rider with a range of highlevel rider accessories. The RSV4 full face helmet in compositefibre weighs less than 1300 grams and has been developedin collaboration with professional riders to offer the verybest performance. The RSV4 riding suit in cattle hide, withdynamic ventilated back protection, has protections in titaniumand is the result of a study to combine maximum levels ofergonomics with safety. Last, but certainly not least, the handytank and tail fairing bags, designed especially for

RSV4 Factory.
