RS 660 Extrema is the sportiest version among the RS 660 models, featuring a range of racing elements that enhance its dynamic qualities and reduce its dry weight to just 166 kg, setting a new benchmark in the power-to-weight ratio. The “Extrema” suffix unmistakably evokes another exceptional Aprilia from the early '90s: the RS 125 Extrema, one of the most powerful and fastest 125 cc bikes ever made.
The racing spirit intensifiesThe Aprilia RS 660 raises the bar yet again. After reinventing the medium-cylinder sports category, the Extrema version shakes things up once more, injecting another healthy dose of sports personality into the mix with an exclusive chequered flag livery and single seat cowl. |
More than appearances aloneThe Aprilia RS 660 Extrema also ups the ante when it comes to technology, courtesy of reverse gear software, a great element if you’re not only concerned about aesthetics, but are also looking for a true Racing bike set-up. |
Advanced technologyThe RS 660 boasts the latest APRC (Aprilia Performance Ride Control) electronic controls package. Based on a sophisticated six-axis inertial platform featuring accelerometers and gyroscopes, this advanced system monitors the bike’s condition in real-time relative to the road and enhances performance while also ensuring a safer and more enjoyable ride. |
Full LED lightingThe RS 660’s front lighting cluster features three LED components with distinctive DRLs and built-in indicators. It includes a dusk sensor that automatically activates the low beam and extra lights known as “bending lights”, which illuminate the inside of a curve for improved visibility on the go. |
Multi-map Cornering ABSAdvanced multi-map Cornering ABS ensures maximum safety on the road without compromising the RS 660’s performance. It works via a specific algorithm that optimises braking and ABS intervention on corners by constantly monitoring key parameters. These include lateral acceleration, the pressure applied to the front brake lever, and the lean, pitch and yaw angle, modulating the braking action in order to optimise the correlation between stability and deceleration. |
Extra features, Extra funAmong the key latest features is the SC Project exhaust, which combines with a new carbon lower fairing designed especially for this model, along with the front mudguard, also in carbon. And the result? A reduction of an impressive 3 kg compared to the classic Aprilia RS 660. Less weight means more riding fun! |
EngineThe twin-cylinder 660-cc Euro 5 engine delivers 100 horsepower and torque levels designed for lively, responsive performance at any speed. |
