Its enveloping lines guarantee an ultra-high coefficient of aerodynamic penetration, even when riding in an upright position, while the large front fairing, built-in hand guards and tank design protect the body from the wind for absolute comfort at all speeds.

And the height of the saddle from the ground has been calculated to enable the feet to be rested steadily on the ground, because the ETV 1000 Caponord represents not just total touring, but also total comfort

Achieve the maximum power and riding pleasure

Smooth, flexible, ever ready to deliver its full power (98 hp to the shaft) even at low revs and to give you the all the delight of a sporty but at the same time easy and safe ride. The ETV 1000 Caponord 60° V twin engine has been specifically designed for this original, multi-purpose and unique bike.

It is light and compact to fit in perfectly with the mechanics, guaranteeing optimum handling and stability. The specific design of the pistons, camshafts and throttle bodies, special intake and exhaust system and sophisticated electronic injection guarantee the highest possible torque at low revs.

The ETV 1000 Caponord engine also features two famous and exclusive Aprilia patents: the AVDC Anti Vibration Double Countershaft system for even more total riding comfort, even on long fast trips and the PPC Pneumatic Power Clutch to make the clutch lever lighter to operate and avoid rear wheel bounce during sudden deceleration for even better stability and handling.

Discover the most innovative and exclusive technology

The ETV 1000 Caponord is the first trail bike with variable geometry aluminium alloy double beam perimeter frame (Double Wave Aluminium Beam). Two characteristics which guarantee the highest torsional rigidity in its class.
But that’s not all. The swingarm is also in aluminium and magnesium alloy. The central section is cold-cast and the arms and terminals forged to guarantee the best possible relationship between lightness and rigidity.
The front suspension with 50 mm diameter sleeves is the same as used in racing enduros, but the calibration has been optimised to guarantee maximum comfort both on roads and motorways and on tracks and trails.
The rear suspension is multi-adjustable with a convenient external knob to adapt the trim of the bike not just to all types of terrain, but also to all carrying conditions, whether alone or with a passenger, with or without bags.

The ETV 1000 Caponord is fitted as standard with innovative and exclusive Tubeless Spoke Rims, enabling tubeless tyres to be used, yet one more advantage in terms of safety. In addition, the particular spoke arrangement together with the exclusive hollow hubs and large diameter wheel spindles provide a high level of torsional rigidity and thus stability during cornering, even at high speeds.

Exclusive, complete and specially designed for the demands of touring, the dashboard has a multifunction digital panel indicating time, ambient temperature, the temperature of water in the cooling circuit and level of fuel. The word "service" also appears when the bike needs servicing
