Piaggio Group Japan began taking orders on July 14 at authorized dealers nationwide for the new Aprilia RSV4 Factory flagship supersport. The ultimate-spec model boasts 220 hp of peak output, priced at ¥3.63 million and limited to just 12 units in Japan.
The RSV4 has bloodlines forged on the racetrack. 220 horsepower is more than you can use on public roads, but that surplus power is exactly what pays off on the track. For whoever gets one of the 12 Factory units, I hope they bring it to a serious track day. I can already picture how this thing will roar coming out of a corner.

For that same money I'd go with a Panigale V4. Ducati's brand power is in a different league.
The RSV4 got expensive too, huh. Used to be the aspirational pinnacle, now it's way up in the clouds.
3.63 million yen... that's a house mortgage territory. My hands would shake just thinking about maintenance costs on top of that.
3.63 million yen for 12 units - at this point it's more about generating buzz than actually selling.
Even if it's mostly for buzz, that's fine by me - the RSV4's V4 sound is one of a kind.
220HP is top-tier even among production superbikes. That V4 1100-series power is genuinely absurd.
Is there really any scenario where you'd use all 220HP on public roads? That's a number purely built for the track.
