Aprilia Factory Range: the new 2027 graphic variant

THE MOST REFINED VERSIONS OF APRILIA’S SPORT BIKES MAKE THEIR DEBUT WITH NEW, EYE-CATCHING LIVERIES THAT HIGHLIGHT THEIR SOPHISTICATED ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS 

THE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS OF THE APRILIA FACTORY RANGE, DRAWN FROM THE EXPERIENCE OF APRILIA RACING, GUARANTEE UNPARALLELED PERFORMANCE AND RIDING ENJOYMENT

For Aprilia, the name ‘Factory’ has always represented the pinnacle of cutting-edge technology, applied to its sportiest and most exclusive motorbikes, which are both highly sought-after by the public and critically acclaimed. These bikes represent a family of top-of-the-range models: on the one hand, the magnificent V4, RSV4 and Tuono V4; and on the other, the benchmark mid-range models in the category, the RS 660 and Tuono 660, which will feature new, eye-catching graphics for 2027 across the entire range. Aerodynamic flows were the common theme for 2026, and for 2027, advanced electronics is the focus chosen by Aprilia. Both are among the key and distinctive features of the Factory models.

Aprilia is at the forefront when it comes to developing new electronic solutions designed to enhance performance and safety. All the Factory models come with the very best that technology currently has to offer in this sector as standard equipment. Aprilia was the first to introduce ‘Ride by Wire’ – the electronic throttle now used by everyone, without which many of the controls would not work – on both a racing bike and a mass-produced bike. The aPRC (Aprilia Performance Ride Control) is the most comprehensive suite of electronic controls available, whilst the RSV4 Factory and Tuono V4 Factory are the only models on the market to feature Corner By Corner technology, which automatically adjusts the electronic settings for traction control, wheelie control and engine braking, based on the settings chosen by the rider before taking to the track. Just like on the most advanced racing motorbikes.

To highlight these features, the Aprilia Design Centre has created the new ‘aPRC Backbone’ colour variant, which draws inspiration from the complex circuit layout designed to carry data from Aprilia’s electronic systems. The graphic consists of a series of red dots and lines, symbolising the electronic signals that originate from the control unit and are transmitted throughout the motorbike. These are all red, set against a striking glossy black background, giving every Factory model a truly eye-catching look. On the front of the tank there is a panel that resembles the design of a control unit, featuring the ‘a’ logo in red; a transparent section, meanwhile, features the word ‘Aprilia’ rendered in ASCII binary code
