Aprilia RSV4

The Aprilia RSV4 Factory has been reintroduced in India along with their Aprilia RS 660, Tuono 660 and the new Tuareg 660. Here's everyting you need to know.

Piaggio Group launched the Aprilia RSV4 in India back in September 2021. The bike was launched silently along with a few other products. Head here to read the launch story.

The Aprilia RSV4, priced at Rs 23,69,000 (ex-showroom Delhi), has received a comprehensive update in almost every department – design, mechanicals, and features. 

It now gets a 1099cc engine (replacing the 1077cc unit) that makes 217PS and 125Nm. It is mated to a 6-speed gearbox assisted by a quickshifter.

The Aprilia RSV4 is loaded to the gills, really. It features a triple-LED headlight setup with DRLs and cornering lights. For safety, Aprilia has equipped the bike with a six-axis IMU and an 11MP Marelli ECU. You get three track-riding modes (two are fully customisable) and as many road-riding modes (one of which is fully customisable). Furthermore, you get multi-level engine braking, launch control, cruise control, traction control, speed-limiter, ABS, and wheelie control. 

The RSV4 is suspended on a 43mm USD Sachs fork with rebound and compression-adjustability and a Sachs adjustable monoshock. For braking, the bike uses dual 330mm front discs with Brembo Stylema callipers and a 220mm rear disc with switchable dual-channel ABS. 

The Aprilia RSV4’s rivals are the Ducati Panigale V4, BMW S1000RR, and the 2021 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R.
