VOL. 56 ISSUE 13 APRIL 2, 2019 P101
Easily the best RSV4 I've ever
ridden, the 1100 will make you
feel like a riding god, even if your
lap times tell otherwise. The com-
bination of the motor, chassis,
suspension, wings, brakes and
electronics make for a bike that
will take some serious beating.
The Aprilia RSV4 Factory 1100 is a
stunning machine. CN
