Aprilia has unveiled the RS 660 Trofeo for international markets. According to the company, production of the motorcycle will be limited to a few units in the U.S. market and is priced at Rs 17.20 lakh (ex-showroom). It is based on the street-legal RS 660 platform and is meant for race use only. The race-ready RS 660 Trofeo sits below the Aprilia RSV4 XTrenta, which is a high-performance hypernaked bike equipped with rear and underwings. The recently unveiled RS 660 Trofeo weighs 153kg. The weight savings have been achieved by wearing fibreglass race bodywork. The engine of the track-spec RS 660 Trofeo has been improved to increase the power output to 105bhp.
The Aprilia RS 660 Trofeo uses a 660cc, inline twin-cylinder engine that is coupled with a full titanium SC-Project exhaust system. The engine, which has been tweaked by Aprilia Racing, is good enough to generate 105bhp of maximum power. And, in this section, the company has removed a backup air system and the thermostat, but the clutch cover and alternator have aluminium guards. On offer is also a Sprint Filter’s air filter.
The suspension setup of the new Aprilia RS 660 Trofeo comprises Andreani upside-down forks at the front and Öhlins AP948 shock absorbers at the rear. It helps with preload, compression, and rebound damping adjustment. The 17-inch wheels come wrapped in Pirelli Supercorsa V3 SC1 tyres, and the motorcycle gets Brembo brakes. The RS 660 Trofeo has a kerb weight of 153kg.
The RS 660 Trofeo has been upgraded to include a new steering yoke and adjustable semi-handlebars. Besides, the bike gets a lower riding position, a racing triple clamp for clip-on adjustment, and adjustable rearsets.
The new Aprilia RS 660 Trofeo comes with an upgraded electrical system that includes traction control, wheelie control, and engine braking adjustability. The bike will be available for purchase through its official website.
