A range-topping "FACTORY" variant has arrived for Aprilia's middleweight supersport, the RS660. It gets the latest MotoGP-inspired winglet fairing, an output boost from 100HP to 105HP, front and rear Öhlins suspension, and standard launch control. Only 12 units will be available domestically.

Winglets on a mid-class bike would've been unthinkable a few years ago. The RS660 Factory is the type where electronics and aero support front-end grip from corner entry to exit. With launch control added too, there's no worry about being left behind off the line. I'd take this straight to a circuit and push it hard without hesitation.

105PS in a middleweight is just easy to handle and perfect for mountain roads.

For that same money you could go for other middleweight supersports... nah, for the ownership feel it's got to be the RS660.

A cowl with MotoGP-derived winglets just looks genuinely cool, I want one.

Front and rear Öhlins plus launch control is the real headline, more than that 5PS difference.

12 units domestically might be the biggest spec of them all. This is going to be a lottery.

Going from 100 to 105PS and calling it the flagship feels a bit weak, doesn't it? Though the Öhlins is tempting.

Honestly the money's going more into the chassis than that extra 5 horsepower. Standard Öhlins doesn't come cheap.
