2024 Aprilia RSV4 as a DAILY bike?

[@louierivera7512]

@@AntiParallali I’m a new rider who just purchase his first motorcycle the Kawasaki 650. I just wanted to thank you for the positive influence you’ve had on us new riders. Ps: the person in the red sports car has been following you since you gased up!

[@MrArrrJay]

My left ear agrees with most of this video.

[@TheCenturion8404]

That’s a very good review, I do want a sport bike that I can tool around on for a few hours. You know with a powerful bike everyone says “you don’t need all that power!” With powerful cars it’s “why spend all that money on gas?!”. People get what you like and what makes you happy and be responsible with what you get.

[@NoFrictionZone]

"I won't do anything stupid on this bike" 120mph later....😂😂😂

[@KeViNMCMXXCIX]

Nice change of pace for a review. It goes fast obviously but getting details on how it rides on a daily base in traffic, just calmly, chill in your own vibe is also just as valuable so thanks for showing this as well Lali. Happy you enjoyed the ride on the RSV4.

[@christophersmith2670]

It feels strangely satisfying to hear such a devinely articulated and well rounded review.

[@rivencsky]

Thank you for a review for us normal riders that do not need to do the track days but enjoy the speed and ride of a performance bike.

[@56Spookdog]

Other riders that exceed the speed limit tend to blur the actual speed they are going over the speed limit due to getting tickets based on their posted speed in their video. I don’t know how often it happens but it’s something to be aware of.

[@mikestone5595]

Doodle borrows another Harley to visit Dr. Lali at the Florida Correctional Facility.

[@ReeseRides]

"YES, I would not recommend it to a new rider"🤣Looove the way it looks and sounds. I've heard so many people say good things about this bike, but I've never actually considered test riding one until this video. Always nice to see fellow short rider share their two cents on different bikes. Thanks for sharing, Lali!🤘🏻

[@chillwithkea]

My left ear loved this. Great video as always

[@alanbrown5593]

First, an excellent review. Maybe try the R1 comparing new, to old, and an update oil video😮 Having had 4 Aprilia; Mille-R SP, Pegaso Strada, RS250 and the rsv4 aprc I find them all comfortable (especially for the larger build person). It requires a +ve or opening throttle, to make it less jerky. Race mode is actually easier to use, as you concentrate more. Wait until you're doing 80mph in first.

[@Angryboot]

I dailied on my '13 RSV4 for a while; it's doable, not the most comfortable on surface streets. Still have it. Yes, it gets pretty hot in stop-and-go traffic.

[@BMK500]

The RSV4 is pretty intresting. Among liter bikes it’s one of the more comfortable bikes but if you let it off its leash it turns into an absolute monster

[@2hotFL]

Nice review and happy to see you moto-vlogging again.

[@iainf6]

Hi Lali👋👋. Great to see another bike with spicy boi 🌶️🏍️ wheels 🔥🔥🔥. Well done that was a great riding video Dr Lali 🫂🌶️🏍️

[@pnoyryder68]

Nice video Lali. Love the RSV4, one of my dream bikes. Never owned one but got to ride the hell out of them on the track during Aprilia sponsored trackdays. You should see if you can attend one. Its definitely more in its element on the track. Gobs of torque and sooo planted and balanced I felt I was on a 600 not a liter bike! I did ride my friend's '13 RSV4 in the street and not the most road friendly but doable. Finding neutral is nearly impossible, seat too high, gets too got in traffic. But paired with an SC exhaust and that V4, whoo baby!!

[@EagleF3F]

I ride the 2023 RSV4 and have 6k miles on it so far and four track days. I had zero issues with it. The shifter and blipper is smooth. Spare parts are very expensive though. The bike is slightly small for me personally, I m 6' 2".

[@ShalomBrother]

The auto blipper going down can be used at any revs according to the manual. It’s the up shifts that should be over a certain rpm

[@AntiParallali]

That makes sense now that I think about it

[@colinm1325]

Shalom

[@humannature3916]

Great video! It is an amazing bike when it works and its all smiles until it is warranty time or you have to push it if it does not start up. People in TX are lucky because AF1 is there. Aprilia ownership requires a primary motorcycle + a strong reliable dealer. When it is out of service, It is super disappointing and heart breaking. 3:54 you were a couple of minutes away from the bike shutting down because of overheating.

[@flipturnsandbutterfly]

If you're tall (I'm 6'3" or 192cm) this bike is great! I can barely flat foot it. I absolutely love the RSV4

[@wrussi]

5'3 rider here. I captain morgan all sportsbikes.

[@StarkVengeance]

I ride an Aprilia, the Tuono 660 Factory. Gotta say, that RSV4 looks good on you, Lali :)

[@Gsr4me]

come hell or high water THAT will be my next bike Nice to see an on-street review for Lali. Did you notice clearance issues between the windscreen frame and the clip ons? (levers rub the windscreen frame)

[@triumphrider9796]

That is one bike I would love to ride. Got a demo ride on a Ducati Panigale V4S when that came out, incredible bike but definitely not a long-distance mount. The BMW S1000RR that I rode at a CA Superbike School 2-day camp at VIR, though, while not quite as otherworldly as the Ducati, felt like a bike I could ride all day. Wish there were more Aprilia dealers in my area, I only know of one and don't know if they do demos (I suspect the Tuono R might be even more to my liking than the RSV4 though). BTW, I believe it is Aprilia as a marque that has the 54 world titles, not the RSV4 model. Many of their world titles are on smaller 2-strokes, they've only been making big-bore 4-strokes for about the last 20 years or so.

[@PleadTheFifth_Racing]

I haven't ridden the RSV4 yet but I have ridden the Tuono V4 and it's was such a fun and relaxed bike. The power came on great, wish that version revved a little higher, my V4SP2 Streetfighter revs to 15500

[@viktorskarlatov8227]

RSV4 is a top 2 bike for me. Absolutely amazing.

[@wesmattimore2895]

Our girl has the need for speed... good review and nice bike thanks doc..

[@carlostonebanks]

When you were showing the downshift issue with the quickshifter, I saw that the "quickshift available" indicator was orange. It turns black when the conditions are right for quickshift. I don't think it's limited to a rev range, but rather the current speed vs. rev. I've got the '22 Tuono V4 and I commonly ride at very low revs to keep the people in the places I ride from calling the police and asking for them to patrol the area (a cop who gave me a ticket said that's why she was parked there). All this to say, I'm used to low rev quick-downshifts.

[@Freedomridingcompany]

Very nice bike - I've never rode a sport bike, but may have to try it!

[@Frank_Torre]

For street use the base RSV4 is fine for the street. While from personal experience the RSV4 Factory limited is very much overkill for daily street/commute/mountain riding. But the Factory limited in Speed White had a serious look back vibe to it.

[@AntiParallali]

Yeah I can't imagine anybody would really need electronically managed to suspension and carbon forged wheels on the street...for $7000 more 🤪

[@Frank_Torre]

@@AntiParallali To be fair the Factory limited was fun to ride and modify. Upside is it did sell for more than I paid for it as a friend was looking for a fully built track bike. True brightside was I turned 1 RSV4 Factory limited into 2 R6s, one for a daily and one for track days.

[@SongJLikes]

Yep! It’s great!

[@thereddrob]

I think she's close to making the switch to italian. based on this review, the rs660 sounds perfect for her

[@AntiParallali]

I took the RS660 on the track last year. Won't deny...it was niceee

[@Irfan87]

Is it any good? Hell yes it is. Best sounding bike ever, alongside the RVF and CBX1000.

[@AntiParallali]

It really does sound so good. I feel like I saw some options that come with an Akra exhaust too

[@Irfan87]

@@AntiParallali Akra or, get the SC Project, its probably the slightly better combo. Btw Lali, whats your INSEAM? Im about 5'10 or 178cm but im all torso, my inseam is 76cm or 30 inches.

Hey Lali, when you are editing, can you make the mono sections of audio play on both L and R channels instead of just L? Its kind of annoying to constantly switch between stereo and just left ear when listening in a headset...

Good review; seems like a nice bike. FYI, there's some creepy stalker following you around in a C8 Corvette most of the video. Pretty cringe if you ask me. Be careful out there.

[@AntiParallali]

🤣 love that, thanks for looking out. My creepy stalker was actually helping me get some photos and rolling shots this time though hahaha

[@ts6141]

Audio seems off, changing from left to right and varying levels of loudness.

[@AntiParallali]

I was also trying to figure that out...I think the windshield of this bike makes air hit the gopro somehow and it made my mic cut out at some points. First time I ever had that issue...everyday I learn something 😩

[@IPieryI]

[@samanthagregoryurich4167]

The RSV4 is amazing and great value for a superbike, but it is totally overkill for the street and even for most track day riders. The RS660 offers go-to-jail speed and is great on track - and you will have $7500 left over for good safety gear, track fees, riding instruction, insurance and tires.
