Aprilia RSV4 RR 2016

Aprilia RSV4 RR 2016

The Aprilia stands out from the crowd with its sonorous V4 sound, sounding more like a two-cylinder than a screaming in-line four. You immediately feel at home on the RSV4 RR and can immediately ride at decent lean angles without having to feel your way around. In terms of handling, it is very pleasant, even though you are sitting quite high up on it. It is a little too compact for tall riders. Compared to its predecessor, it is easier to ride, but at the same time much stronger and faster. It scores points especially on corner entry with great feedback from the front wheel.

Compact and extremely powerful V4 engine

very strong character

stable chassis

independent look

traction control, power modes

A little small for tall riders

very stiff design

BMW S 1000 RR 2020

BMW S 1000 RR 2020

A real "all-rounder" superbike. The BMW knows how to play to its strengths both on the race track and on the country road. Thanks to variable camshaft control, the powerful engine is already convincing at the bottom end and accelerates harmoniously across the entire rev range, with plenty of power in every range. For the hobby pilot, the chassis certainly functions excellently in every situation, provides transparent feedback and offers many adjustment options. The seating position is sporty yet relatively comfortable. The electronics work very harmoniously without patronising the rider - TOP!

Very linear power delivery, which makes it particularly controllable. Wide rev range and pleasant control

thanks to ShiftCam, there is also plenty of pressure in the lower rev range

excellent DDC - precision and TOP performance

super electronics package

harmonious overall package both on the road and on the racetrack

In part, the bike seems almost a bit "characterless" compared to the Aprilia and Honda

In direct comparison, the bike lags a bit behind on the spec sheet
