I’ve had many Jap IL4′s such as the R1, GSXR1000 and ZX10R, now I’ve gone back to a RSV1000R. It’s not all about text book BHP figures, it’s how the power is delivered in the real world. I find the aprilia will get from a – b quicker and with a bigger smile on my face than any of my previous Jap bikes once you get used to the V twin.
The RSV is ten years old so of course a Jap multi should be faster. Doesn’t matter, an Italian twin is way cooler in every way. All you multi guys don’t really ride anyway you just read mags!
At the wheel figures. an aprilia will be beat a 600 they have more torque and more hp over 120 at the rear, most 600′s make 110 at the rear. Im not biased as I have a zx6r, its just how it is, besides i would swap it for an rsv any day of the week

Yes, thats true. verry bad commercial. Take a ducati 999 or 1098 for instance. They would rape the RSV on and off track.

Ummm… Tell me where the Rotax engine in in the Aprilia is made?! Austria dumb ass!
December 5th, 2009 at 4:15 PM
The Rotax engine is made and designed in Austria.
December 5th, 2009 at 4:41 PM

December 5th, 2009 at 5:05 PM

whats faster than an aprilia RSV?, just about every rival superbike on the market.
the RSV is a great bike, but it lacks horsepower and is very heavy compared to competition.
December 5th, 2009 at 7:46 PM
my left bollock is faster
December 5th, 2009 at 8:37 PM
Aprilia Power <3
Who carse if this bike is the fastest?
Aprilia is one of the best bike
I start with aprilia Rally 5o LC and I’ll end with a Aprilia RSV
