2024 Aprilia RS 457 First Ride - Cycle News

We sent out guest tester, Jen Dunstan, to ride the all-new Aprilia RS 457. This new model from the Italian brand hits a new target in their lineup while still maintaining a classic pedigree.

It is nice that they have an appropriate test rider for the bike. Some channel they have a 6'5 guy as a tester which completely throws everything out of spec.

So ur saying us taller riders don’t matter

[@markwoolard3315]

Nice bike ! Suspension preload is adjustable front and rear if it's too stiff for you.

[@cyclenews]

Thanks for the tip!

[@joeblow5037]

Nice review, Jen. No doubt it will be really popular in Europe.🙂 Their laws are so strict on power and capacity requirements. Here in Oklahoma, I got my bike license at 14 (CB-100, SL-125) and anything I wanted at 16. Good times 🙂

[@cyclenews]

Gotta love America for that!

The A2 license could loosen some imo, and put it at 50hp instead of the odd 47.6.

imagine a off-road version of this Beauty!... 😎🏁

Great review! How does it compare to the other 450cc bikes like the Ninja 500 or CFMOTO 450SR-S?

[@dailywiithshankar]

this bike has organic break pads for normal road usage but also aprillia offered sintered breakpads as an accessory.

I have one on order. Waiting for my phone call for my delivery date

[@nzajflynn]

How are you finding the bike? I just ordered one in new Zealand.. I have a couple weeks to weight.

[@purpledude5526]

@@nzajflynn Lost job, had to cancel my order, plus it was way too long of a wait. I got a job already and since the cold season on the way I'll get it next year, maybe, Im a bit worried about the build quality / reliabliity

[@nzajflynn]

@@purpledude5526 thanks, good luck with everything 💪

It's all well and good stating how good the bike performs and it's handling, however the elephant in the room is reliability.

Look carefully at the elephant: there's written "Your prejudice" 😮

[@markwoolard3315]

I have owned 4 Aprilia's, and they have all been 100% reliable.
