APRILIA RSV4 Factory APRC SE (2009-2010) Specs, Performance & Photos

The Aprilia RSV4 is a super sport motorcycle manufactured by Aprilia from 2009 when it replaced the RSV 1000 R, until the present (2023). The bike was offered in two versions, the RSV4 Factory and RSV4 R limited edition, made in only 350 units.

The bike's production began in 2008 and was presented on February 22, 2008, at the International Piaggio Group Convention in Milan, Italy. The bike was powered by the company's first-production V-four-cylinder engine that Aprilia claims can produce over 200 horsepower in race configuration.

In 2011, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer launched the Aprilia RSV4 Factory APRC SE, a milestone in the history of supersport motorcycles, which received all the racing expertise and indications from the successful 2010 season of the World Champion Max Biaggi.

The bike was fitted with new features, such as a unique adjustable traction control, which is capable of self-adjusting to match different types of tires, launch control, wheelie control, and quick shift.

The bike's aggressive design was complemented by standard features, such as a half fairing with parts of the engine in plain sight, a small windscreen, a single seat, a four-into-one exhaust system with a silencer on the right side, and 10-spoke lightweight wheels.

As for power, the 2011 Aprilia RSV4 Factory APRC SE had its heartbeat set by a 999cc four-stroke V-four liquid-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 180 hp with a peak force at 12,500 rpm and 115 Nm (85 lb-ft) torque at 10,000 rpm.
