With 100 units becoming available to order from September 6th, 2022 at a price of €50,000 plus VAT, the limited edition MotoGP-inspired Aprilia RSV4 Xtrenta launches as the most extreme, and high performance, example of the model so far.
Created to celebrate the 30th anniversary of a first World championship title for the Italian manufacturer, the specifications are certainly impressive. Headline figures are 230hp with a weight of 166kg, a carbon fairing and first road example of an under wing on the swingarm, an SC-Project titanium and carbon exhaust, and lots more.
The new Aprilia RSV Xtrenta uses the current Factory model as a base. But the engine gets an increased compression ratio, alongside the exclusive exhaust system, a Sprint Filter air filter using MotoGP specification materials and Superbike-derived Taleo Tecnoracing water and oil radiators to keep things running smoothly during hard riding on track. Plus you can upgrade the bike even further with a full titanium silencer which is even closer to the actual MotoGP version.
A specially calibrated Magneti Marelli control unit will manage performance, and you also get a PBR-branded titanium sprocket, a JetPrime racing panel, and Spider footpegs, bars and fuel cap.
The top-spec parts bin has also been raided to compliment the chassis with Ohlins suspension, which has then been modified by Andreani in collaboration with the Aprilia MotoGP engineers. There’s an exclusive Aprilia Racing billet steering plate, and Brembo brakes with GP4-MS billet monobloc calipers and 330m T-drive discs at the front.
You’ll also get forged magnesium Marchesini M7R GENESI wheels with Pirelli Diablo SBK slick tyres, using an SC-1 compound for the 120/70 front, and an SC-X 200/65 rear. Switching the wheels alone saves around 2kg compared to standard equipment.
And all of that comes clad in the PAN Compositi carbon fairing with new front wings to create more downforce with less drag, new rear wings, and the lower ‘under wing’ on the swingarm, used by the Aprilia MotoGP bikes since 2019. The livery is a new interpretation of the one used by Aprilia for the 1992 125cc GP championship, which saw them take the first of their 54 world titles.
The new Aprilia RSV4 XTrenta will be available at a cost of €50,000 plus VAT, which works out to around £43,000 at current exchange rates (excl VAT). A total of 100 units will be produced, and you’ll not only get your individually numbered bike, but a cover and mat, and the option to visit the Noale racing department if you fancy collecting it from the Aprilia Racing factory. Orders open online from September 6th, 2022 on the Factory Works website.
