Aprilia continues its dedication transferring competition technology directly to production. The perimeter frame was developed in conjunction with the engine and a tubular steel trellis structure, interference fitted to pressed aluminium side plates to form an extremely rigid assembly. The design of the tail and rear side panels abandons traditional enduro styling and is totally innovative, just like the centrally mounted exhaust system with twin tail pipes under the rear mudguard.
Combining the superb technology of its V twin engine, mixed trellis and aluminium frame, and mighty swingarm provides exceptionalperformance when pushed to the limit, just as a winning off-road racer should be. Valve gear based on a single overhead cam and four titanium valves per cylinder gives the best possible compromise between compactness, light weight and performance. Rising rate linkages operate a Sachs multi-adjustable monoshock with piggy-back cylinder and double high/low speed settings.
