Aprilia lancerer Biaggi-replika

2010-05-31 Den ultimative trackday-racer. Det er ikke for meget sagt om denne nye RSV4 Biaggi Replica, som yder 20 ekstra hk og er spækket med carbon og fin elektronik.



Med foreløbig tre dobbeltsejre på henholdvis Portimao, Monza og senest Miller Park i USA blander Max Biaggi sig i den grad i toppen af Superbike-VM i år. Og nu hylder Aprilia den romerske kejsers indsats i WSBK med en replika af hans RSV4-racer.



Replika-modellen yder 20 hk mere end den sædvanlige RSV4 Factory, og de i alt 200 hk skal blot slæbe rundt på 175 kg motorcykel. Den lave vægt skyldes udstrakt brug af kulfiber, som kan flashes helt og fuldt, hvis man vælger at få modellen i carbon-look i stedet for i den oficielle Alitalia-teamlakering.

Modellen købes direkte ab fabrik i Italien, og prisen er 50.000 euro eksklusive fragt og moms. Og den kan ikke indregistreres.



Biaggi Replica er udstyret med komplet Akrapovich 4 i 2 i 1-titanium sportsudstødning, ledningsnettet er lettet betragteligt, og takket være APX-kørecomputeren fra Aprilia Racing har modellen en række avancerede faciliteter. Her er bl.a. justerbar mapping, traction control, justerbar motorbremse, pitlane hastighedsbegrænser og quickshift, så du kan skifte gear uden hverken at bruge kobling eller lette på gassen.



Affjedringen er af den dyre slags fra Öhlins med en multijusterbar TTX36-dæmper bag. Dækkene er rigtige Pirelli Diablo SBK'er i dimensionerne 120/75 for og 190/65 bag. og de er krænget på et sæt syvegede 16,5"-magnesiumfælge fra Marchesini.
