Aprilia creates the Concept RS 660
A mid-capacity sports bike would certainly fill a gap that currently exists in the Aprilia range. The Concept RS 660, which was unveiled at the EICMA show in Milan, offers a preview of such a model.
Power is provided by a 660 cc parallel-twin engine. Derived from the company’s existing 1,100 cc V4, this compact unit sits inside a lightweight aluminium frame as a stressed member. Indicative output and performance figures haven’t been revealed yet, though.
The minimalist bodywork looks suitably attractive. However, it’s worth noting that efficient aerodynamics were another core design objective.
According to Aprilia, target buyers are likely to be younger riders across Asia, Europe and North America who want to graduate to a more powerful machine. A production version of the RS 660 should appeal as a downsizing proposition, too.
