Overview

Introducing the 2024 Aprilia RS 660 Extrema, a striking addition to the sport motorcycle segment that merges cutting-edge technology with exhilarating performance. Aprilia has long been synonymous with racing pedigree, and the RS 660 Extrema is no exception. This model not only stands out with its captivating Checkered Flag color scheme but also positions itself as a formidable contender for riders seeking a lightweight and agile machine that doesn’t compromise on power or sophistication. Whether you're carving through canyons or tearing up the track, the RS 660 Extrema promises an unparalleled riding experience that reflects Aprilia’s racing heritage. At the heart of the RS 660 Extrema is a robust 659cc parallel-twin engine, engineered to deliver a thrilling 100 horsepower at a dizzying 10,500 RPM. This dynamic powertrain produces an impressive torque of 67 Nm at 8,500 RPM, ensuring that riders feel the rush from the moment they twist the throttle. With a top speed of 235 km/h (146 mph), this bike isn't just about numbers; it’s about the sheer exhilaration that comes from a responsive 6-speed gearbox and a multi-plate wet clutch with a mechanical slip system. The bike’s light weight of just 166 kg (366 lbs) enables nimble handling and cornering confidence, making it perfect for both spirited riding on the street and competitive track days. The RS 660 Extrema boasts an advanced aluminum dual beam chassis that not only enhances rigidity but also contributes to the bike’s overall agility. The front suspension features a fully adjustable Kayaba 41-mm stanchion fork, while the rear is equipped with an equally adjustable monoshock, providing a plush ride that can be tailored to individual preferences. Stopping power is handled by top-tier Brembo braking components, with dual discs up front and a single disc at the rear, both featuring ABS for added safety. With its 15-liter fuel capacity and efficient fuel consumption of 4.08 liters/100 km (57.65 mpg), the RS 660 Extrema strikes a balance between performance and practicality, making it a viable option for both daily commuting and weekend adventures. **
