Pros and Cons in comparison

Aprilia RSV 4 R 2010

The RSV4 is fun. In the saddle there is a real racing feeling and no 1000cc bike steers as quickly as the RSV4 when entering a corner. In terms of sportiness, handling and engine characteristics, the RSV4 Factory received nothing but praise from all test riders. However, the radical overall concept has two major disadvantages: the seating position on long stretches of road and the slightly unstable rear end.

Very good looks

good rims

positive chassis

strong brakes

agile handling

lots of driving pleasure

powerful engine.

Feel to the clutch

stability under braking

too extreme seating position.
