Aprilia RSV4 Biaggi Replica





ENGINE
The RSV4 Biaggi Replica’s Aprilia V4 65° engine puts out the power of 200 horses (+20 compared to the street version) and 125 Nm (+10), absolute reference values which confirm the sporting quality of this engine. The bike maintains the four 48mm Weber-Marelli throttle bodies, activated by a “ride by wire” system, two injectors per cylinder and adjustable height intake ducts.

The Aprilia Racing digital APX on board computer permits management of the mapping and engine control via Ares software, while the wiring was significantly lightened. The Akrapovich 4-2-1 titanium sport exhaust contributes to the increase in performance with a single side silencer in carbon and titanium.

The extractable six gear transmission is combined with a multi-disk oil bath clutch with a mechanical anti-skipping system. The RSV4 Biaggi Replica has QuickShift assisted shifting which allows the gear to be selected without letting off the gas.

MOTORCYCLE
The Aprilia Racing RSV4 Biaggi Replica frame is an aluminium double rail with cast and pressed elements. There are many adjustments to adapt the rider to any racing need: headstock position and angle, engine height and swingarm pin height. Even the machined from solid foot pegs, like the conical handlebars are completely adjustable.

The suspensions section is no less. On the front we find an Ohlins fork with 43mm stanchions and Tin surface treatment, adjustable pre-charge, compression and extension. The internal cartridges are pressurised Ohlins Racing cartridges with dedicated calibration and the calliper mounting brackets are in forged aluminium with radial calliper mounts. The front fork is assembled with a superior lightened Racing steering yoke.

On the double braced swingarm, made with a mixed technique of casting and plating, an Ohlins TTX36 mono-shock absorber operates, adjustable in spring pre-charge, offset, compression and extension with dedicated calibration. The suspensions operate via a progressive APS linkage.

The braking system uses Brembo technology with radial attachment single body callipers and sintered pads which operate on 320mm front floating disks. These have a lightened stainless steel braking surface and a flange in aluminium. Even the master cylinder is radial with woven metallic brake lines.

The radial Pirelli Diablo SBK tyres, 120/75 on the front and 190/65 on the rear, are wrapped around Marchesini forged magnesium alloy wheel rims with a seven spoke design and “anti slip” treatment.

ELECTRONICS
Aprilia Racing has always been a key player in applied electronics technological research. The new RSV4, and specifically the Biaggi Replica version, continues the trend of a tradition built on excellence and firsts. The first to adopt the cable free “Ride by wire” gas control, Aprilia reaches a new level in electronic control of the bike with the RSV4. The digital APX on board computer made by Aprilia Racing allows the use of advanced vehicle management strategies including: TCS traction control, QuickShift assisted shifting, Antibacklash system, engine brake and pit lane speed limiter. All of the parameters can be modified with the button panel on the handlebar or the dedicated Aprilia Racing Palm. The excellent strategy management from a racing point of view is possible thanks to a data acquisition system relative to the main engine and vehicle parameters, signals which are then managed by the ABM lite software.
