Aprilia RSV4 X-GP Celebrates Brand’s 10 Years in MotoGP

The Aprilia RSV4 X-GP has been launched, as the brand commemorates their 10th anniversary in MotoGP racing, and it is a MotoGP tech-laden missile.

“Really?” you ask? Try 234 hp, 131 Nm, 165 kg, Brembo T-Drive discs, and all the aerodynamics features of the Aprilia RS-GP25 MotoGP race bike.

The RSV4 X-GP is the fifth machine in Aprilia’s ultra-exclusive “X” line, after the RSV4 X (2019), Tuono X (2020), RSV4 X Trenta (2022) and RSV4 X ex3ma (2024).

Highlights

1,099cc 65 degree V4 tuned to full SBK-spec, with maximum power at 234 hp at 13,750 RPM, and peak torque at 131 Nm at 11,000 RPM.
Sprint racing filter, reworked intake trumpets, higher compression ratio, a dry STM clutch.
The APX Racing ECU, which is not available for the road, take care of fully adjustable traction control, engine braking, power delivery, anti-wheelie and data-logging, and GPS.
Owners even get a Yashi laptop loaded with the management software.
Suspension consists of Öhlins pressurised FKR up front, and TTX shock at the rear.

Brakes are Brembo GP4-MS calipers biting on 330mm Brembo T-Drive disc in front.
The rims are forged magnesium Marchesini M7R Gen, wrapped with Pirelli racing slicks used in WorldSBK, as in 125/70 SC1 front, 200/65 SCX rear.
Jetprime racing switchgear.
Spider rearsets and other billet stung.
PBR titanium sprocket.

RK 520 chain.
Leg wing and tail wing technology directly from the current RS-GP25, making this the first MotoGP-derived bike with these features.
They work together with the front wing, under wing, and cornering winglets to create downforce under braking, in corners, and even mid-straight to glue the front wheel to the ground.
The rear subframe follows the RS-GP25’s carbon seat support from PAN Composite, serving both as a weight-saving measure, and another aerodynamic aid.
Completing the MotoGP look is double-pipe SC-Project MotoGP exhaust, a full carbon fairing with RS-GP25 race livery.

And a MotoGP-style SC-Project exhaust system.

We did not bother about how much it costs, but we’ll publish it anyway for you, our readers: €90,000 (RM443,781.00). Only 30 units will be produced for worldwide customers.
