- If I had to turn you away from purchasing a 2019-2020 Aprilia RSV4 1100 Factory, it would be quite the task. However I compiled a small list of things I would change about my Aprilia if I could to make the overall experience a little better. Or at least some things to be aware of if this particular model and year range is making it's way to your wishlist. Enjoy the 5 things I "hate" about my Aprilia and let me know if you agree or what other things you may have come across.

17-20’s are my favorite! I used to work at an aprilia dealer for 3 1/2 years and I’ve seen em all from #2 of 100 Tuono Misano editions to a RSVR 1000 Bol D’or, great bikes lol i even owned a 03’ RSV Mille it was #22 made in the last production year and only had 1100 miles on it when I bought it in may of 2020 😎
I definitely love mine!! I feel like they haven't really changed a ton over the years either
@@workingclasscustomsis there an actual between the tuono frame/swingarm and the rsv4 frame swingarm?
I know the triple tree,forks and front fairings are different
Great sounding bikes 🔥😎
When you see that fuel light you better hope fuel is not too far away (I’ve run out twice 😂)
They definitely guzzle fuel!! That's why I wish we had a nice working fuel gauge
Sold it now but loved it bar the wheelbase too short and sooo light you get sucked in by every truck you pass.
It is definitely a light weight bike! Didn't feel like a liter bike the first time I rode it!!
@@workingclasscustoms I ride a 999S too and that thing is rock solid arrow straight at speed. Beautiful bike.
@@billtomlin4424 Good to know, I'll have to see if I can get my hands on one some day!
It is ONE OF FASTEST BIKE in the WORLD....!!! Bro...😱🤐
Only in my dreams sometimes i rode it. It was a great experience...😅
They are insane machines, all the power all the time and impeccable handling!! It was quite hard coming up with 5 things to hate
If you can find em, you can get one under $20k, I’ve been eyeing a 17’ RF for $15,995 (originally was 17,995) with only 5500 miles on it! It’s been at this dealer for over a year and I don’t think it’s selling anytime soon lol
@V990Crazy thats not a bad price at all! The 1100's tend to still be on the pricey side I think. But there is absolutely nothing wrong with a rsv41000 either
I actually prefer the ‘17 through ‘20 generation more than the new design. I think they screwed some design elements up.
So glad someone else share's that opinion!! The biggest thing that got me right off the bat with the new model was the handlebar controls. They feel so tacky and cheap compared to these models.
@@workingclasscustoms - Oh no. How about the tail section? How did they swap out that beautiful teardrop-shaped curvature for that flat boredom? And what’s with the front wheel? You can see the whole thing in the profile, instead of some of it being hidden by the side fairings. Looks like a damn dirt bike.
@@NCC2087 why don't you and I just go design the next one for them. We'll throw the old design down on the table and walk out lol
@@workingclasscustoms 😂👍🏻
Theres not one thing I hate about the RSV4, its a race bike with lights fitted. Take it on the track and those 5 hates will disappear for good.
Can confirm you are correct, the track is definitely where this thing comes into her own!!
I have a 2023, still no fuel gauge, but honestly other bikes that have one and it doesn't work properly. Shows full when tank is half full at best ... so I would rather have none than a bad one.
Well that's good to know, I agree that it's better to not have one than to have an incorrect reading one.
The 2017+ Gsxr 1000’s are the only bikes in this sector that have fuel gauges lol
@@NudaMan would throw in the s1000rr also.
Crazy the fuel gauge on my S1000RR works great. 😉
It would be interesting to see the difference between different motorcycle models fuel gauges
I have a 2016 RSV4 RR with standard levers and yep, I had the exact same issue when trying to lower my clutch lever. It kept reducing the Traction Control.
And yes, PLEASE can we get fuel guages!?
Glad to hear I wasn't the only one with that issue. Well maybe glad is the wrong word, but seriously why is a fuel guage so hard to add?
Have the same bike, have the carbon levers, no issues with the ATC buttons.
Have you ever needed to adjust them down?
Olá amigo sou iniciante e queria saber , qual nível de experiência eu tenho que ter para pegar uma rsv4 factory na sua opinião??
I definitely wouldn't recommend this bike as a beginner bike. My opinion would be learn on something with a little less power and then move up when you're ready.
Same bike i have no issues with levers, i agree with fuel guage tho, but man i love my rsv4, im 6”1 so ridn high not issue is tucking for me
Don't get me wrong, still absolutely love the bike!! Power from 3k up no questions
@@workingclasscustoms heck yea!! But as im thunkn bout it, one thing i hate is the heat issue, especially im in texas!
@@grimlock_rsv4634 they do get warm for sure!! Not bad enough to turn me away, but I would not call this a good around town bike.
Lots of misinformation.
It is not a tuono engine. Tuono makes 170bhp. Theres a lpt more that was done to it to make it put out 217bhp.
The 21+ engine is slightly different stroke but everything else is mostly the same as the 19-20 1100s
Wouldn't quite call that a lot. And I might need to check my facts but I wouldn't build a complete new engine that was the exact same size just to gain a few hp.
@@workingclasscustoms it's not a Tuono engine. The only thing it shares with the Tuono is the crank. Rods, pistons and the entire heads are different.
@@snikwadRR I guess it really depends on what you define as the engine.
@workingclasscustoms so what I got from that is that the engine is identical except for the head?? 😂 also I just shaved some material off my lever to stop it hitting the TC button.. seems to work fine for me but I wouldn't be doin it to some tastey aftermarket ones..
Seems like the music should be a bit quieter. Interferes with your voice and draws too much attention.
Noted, thank you! I will take that into account when editing future videos. Appreciate the feedback.
Thank you so much for that feedback! As stated our editor will keep that in mind during future videos!!
Are Aprilias as good as GSXR's?
Pure opinion on that one
Gain some weight. Will help with wind issues lol
Heard that makes the bike slower lol
