Aprilia RSV 1000R Factory
The Aprilia RSV 1000 R Factory was the fastest bike around ten out of twelve curves and the fastest in top speed at the end of six out of twelve straights. The Aprilia RSV 1000 R Factory did not just win, it dominated the final of the 2006 Master Bike, thanks to amazingly safe braking, rapid yet smooth and precise control when leaning into curves, excellent rear wheel feel under acceleration and, last but not least, a final drive gear ratio specially calculated for effective racing. This year’s Master Bike has scientifically and conclusively demonstrated that the Aprilia RSV 1000 R Factory is the most efficient winning machine on the racetrack. It is also the first non-Japanese bike to dominate the final points table, and the most impressive V twin in the competition. The RSV 1000 R Factory is the best twin cylinder supersport that money can buy. Its updated V60 Magnesium engine and new chassis combine with special, ultra-light materials and the best components in the world to ensure absolute excellence on the track. The Aprilia RSV 1000 R Factory is the utmost expression of Aprilia's technological and sporting heritage. Here is a bike designed for those who demand maximum
performance on the track. Yet, like all previous RSV 1000 R
models, the new Factory still sells at a surprisingly low price.
Just like its predecessors, the new Factory brings you the best
motorcycle technology in the world at a rock bottom price.
Nowhere else will you find this level of equipment for such a
low outlay. The important details that distinguish the Factory from the standard RSV 1000 R are:
The Aprilia RSV 1000 R Factory is equipped with world-beating solutions and components taken directly from the world of racing. The result is truly impressive in terms of design and manufacturing quality. The RSV 1000 R Factory stands apart from other twin-cylinder machines for the perfect balance it achieves between quality, technology, high-tech components and finish. ENGINE
FRAME SUSPENSION The fork has new, forged aluminium mounting blocks to enable radial calipers to be fitted. An Öhlins Racing rear monoshock is fitted as standard. The unit incorporates a separate piggy back nitrogen cylinder and provides adjustments for spring preload, compression and rebound. A characteristic unique to Aprilia is that the length of the monoshock can be adjusted directly from the unit itself to vary the height of the bike’s rear end. Perfect suspension setup can therefore be achieved for all riding styles and all track characteristics BRAKES The rear brakes are Brembo too, and have a 220 mm stainless steel disc and a caliper with two 32 mm pistons. The front and rear braking circuits both use aeronautical metal braid hoses to eliminate the pressure variations associated with conventional rubber brake lines, guaranteeing maximum braking precision. COMPONENTS An exclusive two chamber steering damper from Öhlins Racing’s competition range is fitted as standard. The damper is adjustable to adapt steering response to all possible riding conditions. Extensive use of carbon fibre components makes the bike far
lighter as well as more refined. The mudguards and various
fairing parts are made of extremely light woven black carbon
fibre. The exclusively designed forged wheels deserve special
mention. Made by OZ Racing, these wheels are one of the most
distinctive features of the bike, not just in appearance, but in
technical specifications too.
This manufacturing technique produces wheels that are totally free from the defects and porosity that can always occur in conventional casting processes, and gives exceptional mechanical characteristics. Finite element analysis was used to identify the best
possible wheel design. The result is a six spoke front wheel and
a five spoke back wheel with ‘Y’ profile spokes forking at the
rim to provide two anchor points each.
Added together, all these tiny savings mean that the RSV 1000 R Factory achieves an amazing dry weight of only 185 kg. Exclusive components on the RSV 1000 R Factory: ACCESSORIES
