Aprilia RS 457 Real World Test | Acko Drive 500 km Test

[@aswinms5785]

6:03 you can see the bend in rear rim on top.

[@ArunNadar-AckoDrive]

It was on the media bike when it came for testing, while we were a bit worried but gladly there wasn't any airloss through the rim edge.

[@PremKumar-uz3jr]

​@@ArunNadar-AckoDriveIs the quality not able to manage Indian roads?

[@arunabhnath5631]

Wanted this but due to financial issues I bought the RTR 310. Although I wanted an Italian bike ..settled for the Indian one and no regrets at all.

[@ackodrive]

Great stuff that you found the bike you like and all the best for your riding journey.

[@ArunNadar-AckoDrive]

Hey Arun, congratulations on your new purchase! Well, you can always save up and upgrade in the future, new bucket list :)

[@PRHLDSHETTY]

I sold rr310 bmw ...because of purchasing this one ......

[@ArunNadar-AckoDrive]

@@PRHLDSHETTY do share your ownership experience with us and congratulations!

[@rohitsinghkatiyar3347]

Hey man how is the riding comfort on longer rides

[@TheFatBeaRr]

Don't go by the look and power it delivers Remember that first batch is always risky and most importantly the after sales service is worst, hold your money have patience let the sales service gets better with time, then go for it.

[@habeebmohamed7089]

I really want to see how the bike looks like with the taller windscreen

[@bahniman1]

With a light tint

[@grabslab9689]

So the ergonomics of Aprilia RS 457 can be painful for touring. Ninja 500 is a fantastic sports tourer but that is expensive. Hopefully Tuono 457(if that comes) should have ergonomics that enable sport touring.

[@ackodrive]

Ninja feels cramped but comfy and not as sophisticated. The Aprilia is definitely better in the long run. Tuono is somewhere in the future, hopefully in 2025🤞🏻

[@daganicecil1761]

Waiting for Tuono 457 🙃

[@devpawar6388]

Bekar brand or bike h aprilia 1 hafta lie nhi hua h bike or khrab h khi koi sunvai nhi h bilkul b koi b mat lena aprilia ka kuch b

[@premprabhakar805]

Tuono will be cheaper too

[@fourpenguins186]

Ninja 500 lacks thrill and it's very much predictive where Aprilia is different class all together the engine grunt and feel is unparalled. ( i hve ridden both recently).

[@iamkarthiksubramanian]

5:06 , you mention RS 547 :)

[@weeabooartzz1695]

Bro is that arai helmet, where did you bought it from?

[@Guywithastory]

They get it pretty cheap(compared to the pricing here) and duty free from outside the country when they have to travel for work.

[@ackodrive]

Arun got that helmet from Japan and it really is a sexy design

[@ArunNadar-AckoDrive]

@@Guywithastory A friend brought it from Japan, with an optional visor, the rear spoiler, it costed me Rs 48,000.

[@PremKumar-uz3jr]

@6:03 is that a rim bend? Does the quality can't handle Indian roads?

[@neoaryan1266]

Very informative video 👍

[@ArunNadar-AckoDrive]

Thanks for the appreciation :)

[@jnana1985]

How's the seat comfort over a long 500 km long ride? I read somewhere the seat is not good for long rides

[@ackodrive]

The posture is aggressive but doesn't cause butt ache if that's what you're asking about.

[@pruthvirs6772]

Man 200 kms and ur butt starts aching

[@Kirmada101]

Is it aggressive seating like r15m??

[@omkarkhamkar9388]

@5:22 ... lot of flex? Is that a mistake?

[@ArunNadar-AckoDrive]

Lateral flex is important for the bike to corner better, especially in MotoGP.

[@UkElectroHub]

Apache rtr 160cc v2 me maine 470 km non stop ride kiya hai

[@u163538]

I live in Greece and I am going to be 50 years old in a few days. I know it sounds weird but I am thinking seriously of buying the new RS457. If I use logic I should buy something different because I like traveling with my motorcycle and I know that this one is not the most apropriate. But my heart keeps telling me that the Aprilia is the best for me! I don't know why but it is maybe because I was an owner of a 2-stroke RS125 when I was younger (2007-2010). Inside my mind I am thinking that I could have this bike and make the trips I want with concessions to comfort. Don't you think?

[@ackodrive]

Firstly, kudos to you for staying a biker at 50. And secondly, if you're heart is telling you this is the bike, then you should definitely listen to it.

[@ArunNadar-AckoDrive]

Greetings from India, great to see your passion for motorcycles! The RS125 is a legendary bike and yes, the RS 457 will thrill you with its performance, the riding posture is sporty, but not overly aggressive. I will suggest that you take a proper test ride, before pulling the trigger. Or you can wait for the Tuono 457 which is expected to be launched in 2025.

[@prayanjaltomar752]

Try aprilia and ninja 500 both. Whichever fits you. Go for that

[@sumansourav665]

Can you please make video of yamha r3

[@grjabalpuriya1039]

i have book this,on 2 of June when can i expect it to be delivered. how much is waiting period

[@ArunNadar-AckoDrive]

Hi, currently the waiting period is between 3 to 4 months, but the timeline is also dependent on your location. Please check with nearby dealerships to get a better understanding.

[@jnana1985]

How's the windshield? Is there any buffeting at 100 kph plus speed? Also does it give good wind protection around 120 kph without tucking?

[@ackodrive]

Aero efficiency is epic as it can sustain higher speeds well.

[@jnana1985]

Do you think the riding posture would cause back pain,shoulder pain or wrist pain if someone chose to ride 500 kms plus on a day?

[@ackodrive]

Suggest you take a test ride cause we don't mind sitting in that sporty stance and ride for 500km on the highway. It does cause some pain in the city though as you can't grip the tank that well

[@mukeshprakash8112]

😬🙏🏻Mistake

[@ArunNadar-AckoDrive]

Galti se mistake hogaya broooo :P

[@borkarms]

Very well reviewd , But would personally prefer the Ninja 500 for its bullet proof reliability and more rounded appeal on all aspects .

[@ackodrive]

The Ninja does have lesser variables to deal with but paying that much extra, can't even dream of it.

[@ArunNadar-AckoDrive]

Thanks for the appreciation, yes Ninja has proven reliability, but the upfront purchase cost and ownership cost will be expensive.

[@MindMist]

Anything above 120 and it'll chug the fuel. For this you have to learn the "Hold it like a cone" when it comes to U turns. It's not a commuter as it's too comitted for city use.

[@keyaanadeeb4089]

U mean like an Ice cream cone, like Ryan from F9 suggests

[@MindMist]

@@keyaanadeeb4089 yup correct

[@ackodrive]

Yeah, it does chug fuel but you wish to be riding this bike fast, the motor does that to you.

[@Shaan-gd5hm]

I took a test ride and felt that the bike was a bit heavy with aggressive riding posture. The engine was smooth though . I personally felt that the looks was a bit of ktm gene .
