Aprilia release 2009 RXV Enduro

HERE ARE the first images of Aprilia's 2009 RXV enduro bike.

The machine has been updated with:

New aluminium swingarm with cast body and hydroformed members. The new swingarm is significantly lighter and more flexible, giving clear benefits in improved traction and better stability over rough ground (ruts/ridges).

Lighter and more compact rear brake caliper.

New lateral exhaust system homologated to FIM 2009 regulations.
Fuel system with stepper motor throttle body control and new ECU. This development makes starting easier under all conditions and reduces weight significantly too. Power delivery is also smoother and easier to control.

Simplified, lighter rear frame for a reduced seat height and a more comfortable seating position for riders of “all sizes”.

Other features include:

Lower seat height (-5 mm)

New 2009 graphics and new seat

Reduced weight (-2 Kg)

Black wheels
