Aprilia, and the all-new RSV4, which
is fitted with a liquid-cooled, DOHC, 999cc, 65-degree V4 that Aprilia claim is
the most powerful engine they’ve ever built. Indeed, the street-legal version of
the RSV4 packs 180bhp at 12,500rpm,
The RSV4’s engine has bits like
variable height intake trumpets, four throttle bodes, eight injectors and
ride-by-wire fuel management. There’s also a six-speed cassette-type gearbox,
aluminium beam frame with mixed cast and pressed sheet sections, fully
adjustable Öhlins suspension and Brembo brakes with monobloc radial-mount
callipers.
Shinya Nakano and Max Biaggi
will race in the 2009 Superbike World Championship on the Aprilia RSV4,
