2024 Aprilia RS 457 - New Beginner SPORTSBIKE!
We’ve got huge news out of Aprilia with the announcement of the RS 457, slated to be the most powerful and best power to weight ratio bike in the class.
Today Aprilia have announced that the new RS 457 will max out the performance to European A2 restrictions which is 35 kW or essentially 47 horsepower, and that is certainly the maximum allowed over in Europe.
The RS 457 will get an electronics system, that’ll mean ride-by-wire, ride modes, with three modes to choose from including torque and power delivery sub-settings, traction control with three levels of adjustment and off, plus an optional accessory quickshifter.
The brake setup also looks to be class leading, running a Bybe radial mount four-piston front caliper on 320 mm rotor, with the same brand providing the rear brake setup, with 220 mm steel rotor.
Dual channel ABS is also run with two maps, essentially offering regular ABS, or deactivating the rear supermoto style.
We also see a notable setup in the suspension department, 41 mm inverted forks, with preload adjustability for instance, which is a step up from what we’d generally expect in the class, while the monoshock is also preload adjustable, which is more the norm.
Another standout is the aluminium frame, which is much more rare in the class, and matches more closely the bigger Aprilia sportsbikes. Included in that design is the crankcase being loadbearing, as on the RS 660 and Aprilia do mention this helps keep the weight down.
Other details include a five-inch TFT display, full colour of course, backlit switchblocks, and a low and clean belly exhaust exiting near the rear wheel, again helping with weight.
