- Aprilia RS 660 - One Lap at Chuckwalla Valley Raceway!
Read Ari's full review of the RS 660 at the track: rvz.la/3q0kklg
Ari takes the RS 660 for a hot lap around Chuckwalla Valley Raceway. Sound on! - Auta a dopravní prostředky
My heart skipped a beat at 2:10. I seriously thought for a split second it had all gone wrong and Ari wadded it up in a nasty highside when the ‘Zilla logo popped up.
I was about to write this and saw your comment... I thought the same!
Haha. Same here. The effect made realistic since he was quickly coming up on traffic.
Haha! Totally!
Me too! Almost flipped out of my chair :o
Pfft. I could EASILY run a slower lap time there on a faster bike...
give me a yanaha bolt and im slower than you all...take that home boy
Bet I could run twice as slow, if not 3-4 times...
@@nitrofish8908 bet I can run even slower on a Honda grom lol
Same
Pure bliss...expect more of this from both Ari and Zack🤩
This was awesome! For a guy like me that will never be able to ride on a track this was as good as it gets. Thank you.
Never say never!
Why not?
@@BruceSteever I suspect low confidence.
Wow, look how flickable that thing is! And nicely ridden!
Don't miss Ari's full review of the RS 660 at the track: rvz.la/3ouNecO
Going there NOW!
Caught me by surprise the ending
Damn it, I wish I owned a garage so I could have 2 bikes. Them lean angles - near godlike.
That lap was just so clean...
Nice ridin dude 👍
Awesome lap 😎
crazy lean angle, can you show us the chicken strips or tire wear after every track day in the future Ari? 😅
Ari: Chicken strips? I'm vegan no chicken strips here!
I'd love to see the bike at full lean from a spectator's perspective.
You will once the racers get their hands on them. It shouldn't be long. I hope thee will be riders on it in the MotoAmerica Twins Cup this year.
i’d love to see ari and zack do a “top gear” and have a budget and challenge and each have their take on it. kind of like their iron butt except more obscure and goofy. i do love the shows they put out now but i think it would be a good “special”
Are you looking for this?

I shall refer you to their Dumb and Dumber video that just came out 🤣
@@peterjensen6844 twas a good one, but i’m thinking more like the $1k track bike but maybe more like a whole road trip in like a multiple part special.
The very definition of "flickable", wow!
Also, that image rotation at the end shortened my life by about seven months.
The Watch This and Try Not to Move Your Head Challenge!
WHOA!!! I thought he crashed at the end! LoL
Never have I clicked a notification so fast!
Simply, Wow!
Clean lap Ari! I keep hoping to catch you out at Chuckwalla one of these days. And by "catch you" I mean get passed by you (obviously). LOL.
Love the new sound the 660 makes .
Like a carbureted bike with no filter box .
Just this is a sportbike instead of the ones in my country are like 90-135 cc's haha 😂
Smooth
the screen flip at the end, for a second, made me think he had an accident!
Had to resist the urge to slam my head on the table.
It does look like it could use a little more umph but handles very well.
Hauling!
0:24 Holy crap Ari practically riding on the sidewalls
NICE!!!
1:27 leaned over pretty far for a gear change. I'd be scared of upsetting the bike. Ari can definitely whip
Sticky tires properly heated up, good suspension, training and confidence.
More please.
Wow seriously fast Ari
Please review the Triumph Street Triple RS
Spidi?

One lap worth more than a thousand words
Whoever came up with the flip transition at the end, buy that person a piña colada from me. 😁👍
Watching that brake fluid swishing around 😮. Sweet bike, though.
Ari could beat me on a Grom while I'm riding my Tuono.
No fair. I was so stoked when aprilia announced this bike.
Great lap!!!whats with the non stop blinking tc indicator???i have seen it in many videos
Evidently it's a glitch with software. Aprilia says they have a fix for it already.
Yeeeeeeesssss
Ari. This bike looks a lot like a Duke 890 R in terms of ergos and weight, not to mention engine configuration. How would you compare them?
I'm sorry but isn't that brake fluid too cloudy?
So is that a good lap time around this track ? I have no idea. Is RS660 fast ?
Where is the camera mounted to get this view?
Last time I got a loan angle like that was just before a trip to hospital...
I would love to see a comparison of the rs660 and the cbr650r
If it's a track test, then that's not a comparison. The RS 660 will slaughter the CBR. The Honda may be an inline four but it's much heavier and not nearly as nimble.
I'd like to see Ari and Troy Siahaan and Phat Statham do a back to back to back track review of this bike.
Tidy!
Looks like she likes the edge of the tire!
I fell off my chair leaning too far :-P
I just wish there was an Aprilia dealer closer than 3 hours away from me - I'd buy one if there was a local dealership. 3 hours away is too far to be practical. I'm guessing many others feel the same way, just not enough Aprilia support nearby.
Fab lap. But @2:08 .. Dayumm!
2:08 mini heart attack!!!
I went to chucawalla with ninja 400 but this guy flying.......
Hey guys I went to revzilla.com and got handlebar for my duke 390 however it didn’t quite get the right one cause my duke need a small hole on right side of handlebars can you guys help to figure it out??
i wonder aprilia plannig a 660 touno (naked) too, based on this bike?...if yes, it will be an awesome bike.
Yes and it's coming out this year.
I currently ride an SV650 but this bike seems way faster, despite the same size engine. That extra 25bhp makes a huge difference. Does it sacrifice some low end torque for that top end power?
No. Last gen engines are designed for a wide torque curve across the rev range. All Aprilia 660 engines are designed for torque, even the RS 660. Not only the Tuono & Tuareg 660. RS660 is a °sport-ROAD° bike, designed for the road : chassis, engine, riding position, etc.
SV650 is just a cheap motorcyle with a lot of compromises to display a low price tag.
SVs are brilliant bikes and fast enough, but the power and torque of the 660 is more comparable with something like a Daytona or VFR (differences in weight aside). I’m guessing that the extra top end on the 660 makes a big difference, plus it’s more modern / premium components next to something like an SV. It would be interesting to see how it stacks up against some of the old-school midddleweights e.g. CBR600F, VFR800 etc, though.
@@jayflash2035 The Daytona has 25 hp more than the 660 and is a three cylinder bike instead of a parallel twin. I would not really compare the two.
@@christiand.7930 I guess not. I was trying to think of bikes that are in a similar league performance-wise, with similar power / torque figures. Maybe there are better examples.
@@jayflash2035 No problem. I think it is good for aprilia that the 660 is quite popular but it is probably more of a street bike compared to the former bikes of the 600cc class. At least it is one more sporty non naked bike which is not a 1000cc or a Ducati. I can not think of one really good looking naked “sport” bike on the market right now.
Ari ! 2021 Track battle for you to do : RS660 vs New 2021 Ducati Monster 937cc !
Sounds good ??? 😃😃
Thats just the semi's, Winner to face the middleweight champ the KTM Duke 890R! I'd pay to watch that.
@@DukeOfTwist Street triple RS is very close to the 890R on a chrono lap. 890R has chassis movements in the corners on the track and can be dangerous. The Street triple RS has a more stable chassis. So I wouldn't buy the fastest at the track but the one that has got the better made chassis. The new Monster is the most interesting for me because it has the more torque and a relax riding position.
@@lensoprezole5322 Ok, I put Woodcraft clip-ons on my 790 here is some footage of me chasing my brother on his Speed Triple RS in the Hills czcams.com/video/l_p8cbfhVWQ/video.html
While we’re at it let’s throw in new MT09 too
I just wanna see this damn bike in person!!!, these videos don’t do it for me
Shame I couldn't see anything past the GIANT LHS SWITCHGEAR :P
Not full power but nice engine performance
Totally. It's gotta be 200 hp or it's not worth it.
damn Ari, putting moto America riders out of a job lol
One question.. why do people love this specific bike so much?
Looks good, sounds good, performs good.
@@seanylewl so does a ducati SuperSport. And a honda cbr650r. And a daytona 765. And any naked bike in it's category. And also sport tourers.
It's not as impractical or uncomfortable as a true supersport like a ZX-6R or R6, better for off-track purposes/around town than those bikes, but also still capable on track. A very good all rounder, perfect for people who only want 1 bike to do everything instead of multiple bikes for different purposes (ie: MT-07 for town and ZX-6R for highway, track, and canyons). Same category as CBR650R, Ninja 650, and (I think) Ducati Supersport, the RS660 having the most technology (and a hefty price tag to match) out of it's 3 MAIN competitors. The R6 and ZX-6R will beat all those bikes and the RS660 on track or highway of course. But the R6 and ZX-6R will lose to all of those when it comes to comfort, and lose to some of them, RS660, when it comes to low end torque and "useable" power especially around town. Sorry for essay, think I got it right though.
@@sivvinod3187 From Rider magazine: “While all admirable motorcycles in their own right, their performance, power to weight ratios, equipment and electronics can’t match what the Aprilia RS 660 offers.”
@@sivvinod3187 Yes and they are all very popular too. What's your point?
Alarm ATC Disabled
Where we're going, we don't need ATC!
I deeply respect the skill required here, but I have zero desire to ride like this. Also I have no skills to ride like this. I'd be shitting myself. 😱
Sound of the motorcycle is not that appealing
That sounds horrible. Also seems like it has a flat spot in the rev range (or is gutless). Nice lean angles though!
It sounds so good ! Wash your ears. Deep clean yet GP style sound.
i think the "flat spot" you hear, is when he stands the bike up, this increses the circumference of the back tyre and reduces revs while standig up the bike :-). and it sounds sweet in my ears :-)
It's a parallel twin, they all sound horrible.
@@lensoprezole5322 I guess I prefer the sound of an inline 4... this just sounds hollow and 'boggy'
Admittedly it does sound a bit like a dirt bike lol
