I stalled mine so many times when I first got it , probably more than my other bikes and cars combined lol

Great review mate. The road ride was a great addition. Really rounds out the review for track and road use. Cheers.

Although I've never tested a RSV4, I'm going to say yes, it is the best superbike. I rode my buddy's 2019 Tuono and the hype is real. The stability and confidence in the turns is ethereal. It's like the chassis is saying to you, 'Is that all you got because I'm barely getting started?' It makes my moto2 765 seem unstable by comparison and it's unshakable in the turns.

Gotta love a real world review. Thanks mate 🇦🇺

Very nice review. Many thanks. G.

Outstanding review and quite an impressive motorbike. A bit too much for my skills and use but appreciate the evolution of the RSV4.

It was impressive to see the pace you were pulling, heading up to Big Bear, while giving in-depth commentary. It looked like your divided attention led you into a couple of corners a bit hotter than you may have intended, but your skills are bang-on and you made it look easy, as you effortlessly brought it back on line. OK, sure it's an awesome bike and looking good on RSV4 is easier than on some others, but that aside you certainly have talent. Thanks for a great review.

Great review

Nice test mate

Superb review, Rennie. I love the road riding and talking about the area. Adds depth and life to the review. First rate. 👍🏽

Beautiful piece of kit all around

Great review 👍

This is a great review. I'd like one.

Sold my 2014 Rsv4 and currently love and ride my Multistrada 1200. Deciding between the V4, V2 and another RSV4

Thank you. Excellent review. End of summer here and riding season. So now thinking about bike for next year. Had not considered the RSV4 and want to get back to sports bikes. Been Ducati for last 15 years (current Multistrada 1260s) and various Red sports bikes before. Could you comfortably road ride this bike for 2 hours without incurring the usual back and wrists of a 90 year old? Thanks again 🤔

Thanks for the review mate, want the factory just for the lava red livery but $40k in Australia 😬

What a stunning Video !!! Excellent, my Aprilla dealer is sketchy at best,Go Honda!!!

Honda? Never heard of it?

Big Bear is in my backyard sort of speak. The first place I rode my RSV4 to test out the handling was there.

How was the quckshifter and autoblipper on the street vs. Track?

Hopefully picking up mine next week. The base. Def can’t afford the Factory

I thought - oh its an Aussie review but dude is in California- good review. Nice bike. You could stick the factory in your own set up mode on the track. I think the adjustable suspension would be better for the road and easy to tweak.

Yeah, we put the Factory in manual mode on the track and it was much better. On the road I think the electronic suspension is the way to go, but the base model at $7k less is a hell of a bike.

Can the electronic suspension be tuned to make the ride sport touring bike level comfortable (barring the aggressive riding position of course) or is it just 'good for a supersport bike' level comfortable?

Don't know why but it's always been underrated as a package and undersold could be when it first come out it had reliability problems maybe always liked aprilia's myself

What tires come stock on RSV4?

Nice review & very cool bike. A lot of people saying the bade model is great so I wonder if Aprilia have shot themselves in the foot by making it too good & 7k cheaper as well.

I was debating between the two but I couldn’t convince myself on a boring in-line 4. Then I went to see both and I was sold immediately. The two bikes next to each other seemed like they were two different price category. The bmw looks and feels a lot cheaper. I really dig the bmw’s dash though.
