2019 Aprilia RSV4 1100 Factory | First Ride - Warning Ear Porn!

Since the Tuono and the OEM Akra you get this beautiful sound already. I meant legal Akra. Of course since even longer you get it with maps and exhausts

[@mitch99110]

Thank you I love all your reviews, im 59 I passed my test 30 years ago, now back on bikes re friends and renting, just about to push the button to purchase my first bike as retired and have the time to ride in southern spain, your opinion to me will be major on this purchase, I will be riding on the street 4 days out of 7 for fun, maybe once a year a track day with a friend, the tech on the bikes are all outstanding no problem, my first choice would be the Aprilia RSV4 1100 Factory love the looks and the sound, but im concerned and put of by the high seating position over the bike, 2nd choice BMW1000RR which does everything and have taken on board what you said about that you seat in the bike, im also 5 ft 9, 31and a half leg, also concerned on the comfort of the legs, 3rd choice, only within the last two weeks is the Kawasaki H2 1000 SX SE plus, not worried about a pillion at all, really interested on your opinions please and thanks again for all you put in to your reviews. haven't ridden any of these bikes yet but will be going to wheels for my test rides on your recommendations as live in UK.

[@LambChopRides]

Tough one Mitchel all fantastic bikes you've listed! I think for road riding the S1000RR takes it over the RSV4 as it has the creature comforts like heated grips and a more comfortable riding position. Pegs are high but some rearsets would fix that easy enough, also I would imagine incredible on track! The RSV4 is more of a riding experience what with the sound and aggressive power delivery. The SX is very different all together, very comfortable and effortless speed, in some ways it's too easy and you feel detached from the ride a little... go try them all its the only way to be sure 😁😁👍

[@mitch99110]

Thank you for your quick reply, what’s your opinion with the high riding position of the Aprilia, also your opinion of the pegs position

[@tedc1531]

Throttle sensitivity from highest to lowest. Sport, Race, Track. I prefer Race for the street. Looking forward to the next video, great content as usual.

[@HalfdeadRider]

It does seem a bit confusing how they done it, why not just a rain mode, road/race mode and a track mode?

[@Lawson7086]

Wrong its sport, track, race

[@joeridestrijcker445]

@@Lawson7086 that's correct, at least on my 2016 Tuono; in Race it has less engine braking than Track... which I like when doing laps at the local track; for street I use Track mode, not just because of a wee more engine braking but also because it smoothens the throttle response (the on/off feeling) a bit; Sport mode I only tried a few times... it felt a bit 'choppy', haven't used it in 2 years or so now

[@jimpanzer07]

Its funny how Ducati and Aprilia hate each other as much as Ford and Chevy but its great for us as we get the fruits of there labor, love it man!

[@jamsxr]

1100 Tuono engine. I’m presuming it’s still got the titanium valves as that upgrade on the old RSV4 seemed to significantly help the clearance issues that the Tuono can still suffer from.

[@MrSimonfoz]

At last a real road review of this bike, that bloody sound ! Amazing lol.

[@woodenchairs]

Small correction, they did have a carbon front mud guard in previous years. I have a 17 RF and ordered it new and it came with that carbon front fender/mud guard.

[@Focused_Veteran]

Incredible bike, sounds absolutely immense! Much like the R1 with the Akra fitted.

[@graemesydney38]

This is the best road test I've seen on KZbin - you get the riders enthusiasm and get a feel for the bike. Looking at the Pommy back ground is interesting as well - it is narrow, confined and effing dangerous - in villages and towns and the so called open road. And it looks effing damp and cold to boot.

[@984francis]

I used to live there. It's completely gorgeous and I miss it. Spent 100's of hours on those roads (meaning those actual roads) on 2 wheels, both motorised and pedal! Stuck in economic exile in NC USA, can't afford a house in England. It's also great for walkers, a vast and intricate network of public rights of way. Villages, pubs and wonderful walks, you don't really get what a treasure they are until you don't have them.

Aprilia the most underrated manufacturer

[@countbrappcula]

I just ordered a 2020 RSV4 Factory 1100 as last new one never sold at Aprilia shop in Germany is on its way here in Spain. This bikes sounds like Aleix Espargaro's MotoGP bike. Just slap a decat SC-Project crt exhaust and Brembo RC-19s and voilà! This review you did was excellent. Good humor and insights. Cheers Chopsy

[@Kkessler654]

There is a guy who dyno compares the Aprilia rsv4 1100 and the ducati V4S on his channel. The ducati has slightly more peak torque at lower rpms but the Aprilia has 208 HP to the wheel. Absolutely insane

[@ragerider6283]

Wow, quite the coup & for a week too. Probably the first, longest & dare I say best (only?) road review of this bike? Sounds amazing, like a genuine grid superbike. You lucky devil! Me: How does it compare to your GSXR? Chops: I have a GSXR?

[@LambChopRides]

I have a back to back video comparison with the GSXR coming 👍 GSXR still brilliant and more suitable for the roads as you can control yourself on that haha

[@ragerider6283]

@@LambChopRides LOL. Good stuff, can't wait. I genuinely love GSXRs as I've said before & while the RSV4 is undeniably a stunning piece of exotica & a total weapon, I'm expecting the GSXR to be more comfortable, more reliable & a better all rounder & road bike. I'm also guessing after your mods, the RSV4 won't humiliate it by any means, bless it.

[@Bredaxe]

Did you make any adjustments to the front forks? That first braking example had them bottomed out and fully compressed. Brembo Stavros, named after a hairy Greek guy in a speedo, lol.

[@LambChopRides]

No I haven't adjusted anything as it's only a loaner. It could do with a couple of turns of compression for sure if it was mine 😀

[@kbs6968]

You Lucky Fooker! I considering driving the 500-600 miles to get a test ride on the 1100 Factory! I have read it is way more than just the tuono 1100 engine, they have used the rsv4 bottom end with the 1100 bore and pistons then tuned rsv4 heads to get the big power and mid range! 😍

Best sounds for sure! I have a 2001 Honda VFR and this Aprilia sounds like the Honda V4 at full song. Mine has a Micron exhaust and it sounds great! But, certainly doesn't have 217 horsepower!!

are the headers titanium on this 19? or just the mid pipe and muffler? getting this or a new 18 RF LE

[@1sal1ngebru1k]

Incredible review, thoroughly enjoyed it man

[@jonnytheboy23]

What a sound! Incredible to think that this thing is Euro4 compliant. It would be interesting to see if it would pass a trackday noise test as I know some standard Panigale's struggle.

[@Mad4BikesUK]

[@gsxr88]

Hey Lamb Chops, I was offered a great price for a 2018 RSV4 RR left over. USA. But I wanted to do research before I went for it. Are their problems with RSV4. That I should look at for?

[@LambChopRides]

Not that I'm aware of very reliable bike these days 👍

[@nomdeploom5707]

haha love the editing. "This one takes it to another level" WAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAA! Had to put the sound through the hifi for the eargasms.

[@sk2283]

If its the same as the 2017/18 then the throttle maps will all give the same peak power but the RACE mode will have softer initial pickup and less engine braking - it is smoother not more aggressive to allow getting on the gas easier on corner exit, Sport is more direct 'road' mode with the most engine braking and 'track' would be somewhere in the middle, the maps only affect initial throttle 'smoothness' and engine braking - depending on your personal preference ! sounds awesome that !

[@perryyip3416]

The reason i sold my rsv4 factory is the reliability issue, other than that its a dam good bike. Suspension, nimble feel, V4 sound, torgue etc it just superb.

[@35goaltender]

There is something seriously wrong in the front suspension set up. At 2:34 the suspension is bottoming out under moderate braking at street speeds. That is unsafe and I, for one would notify the dealership of their error.
