Presented at the Grand Prix of Catalonia, the RSV4 X-GP It is a special edition created with the avant -garde experience of Aprilia Racing in MotoGP and produced in a limited edition of 30 units To celebrate the tenth anniversary of the RS-GP debut in the queen category of the World Motorcycling.
Thus, Aprilia Racing consolidates its international renown X brand with the RSV4 X-GP, the fifth generation of a unique project in the world. It began in 2019 with the RSV4 X, then with Tuono X in 2020, followed in 2022 by the advanced RSV4 x thirty -in 2024 with the RSV4 x ex3ma. All of them exclusive models, distinguished by that “X” (in reference to the Roman number 10) that represents the maximum expression of technology and performance that anyone could desire for a motorcycle available for the general public.
APRILIA RSV4 X-GP 2025 in detail
The new RSV4 X-GP derives directly from the RS-GP25 in its form, especially from the rear design, capable of faithfully replicating the air flow. The most prominent novelty of the entire aerodynamic package, derived from MotoGP, is the leg fins, a technology developed and patented exclusively by Aprilia Racing, as well as the rear fins, both introduced just a few months ago in the RS-GP25.
The combination of the leg and rear fins adds aerodynamic load in the braking and passing phases, as well as the front wing, obviously, with its unique shape, the lower spoiler and the fins pass by curve. To this evolution focused on aerodynamics is added a unique element, specifically from the competition prototypes: the structural carbon seat support, manufactured by compositi bread, with integrated structural, aerodynamic and design characteristics.
Another design improvement of this new feature is carbon processing in “sandwich structure”, a particular way of placing carbon fiber to achieve extreme lightness, while maintaining the desired rigidity. All this makes the dynamics of the rear of the vehicle even more similar to that of the competition prototype, increasing the perception of grip and guaranteeing a more direct connection between the performance of the rear tire and the pilot’s sensations.
Complete the set The Double tube exhaust MotoGP style, designed to maximize performance and provide a competition sound. Likewise, the soil effect aerodynamics, a technology developed and patented exclusively by Aprilia Racing, the RSV4 X-GP presents a particular form of the fairing on the sides that reduces the air pressure between the floor and the fairing when the motorcycle is inclined in a curve, creating a descending force that pushes the motorcycle towards the ground.
All fairings are made of carbon by PAN Compositi, using the same procedures that are followed on motorcycle motorcycles to maintain maximum fidelity to the prototype Aprilia Racing. Compared to the RSV4, the new version allows five times more vertical air pressure in line, which increases stability and driving precision, while reducing the front elevation and triples the load with the inclined motorcycle, all with important advantages for curve grip.
Another novelty that makes the RSV4 X-GP unique is its special design reminiscent of the RS-GP25, a tribute to a winning motorcycle that currently represents the latest advances of the APRILIA Racing MotoGP project. The V4 engine of 1099 CC and 65 ° with SBK competition specifications has been prepared by the department department of Aprilia and now reaches a maximum power of 238 hp at 13,750 rpm (with a maximum motor regime of 14,100 rpm) and a maximum torque in the crankshaft of 131 Nm at 11,750 rpm.
This performance is achieved thanks to a specific set -up of the V4 that also includes a greater compression ratio, as well as the use of the High Permeability Sprint Filter competition filter, admission trumpets in the air box with competition specifications, the double titanium titanium tube exhaust system MotoGP replica manufactured by SC Project with compensator and the STM dry clutch.
The ECU that manages all active electronic controls is the Racing Apx, an exclusive component and the last evolution of which was the protagonist in the WSBK championships won by Biaggi and RSV4. The ECU has operational strategies identical to those implemented in the RSV4 competition motorcycles, with totally adjustable parameters to adapt to driving styles and track conditions, and with data acquisition for performance analysis.
In particular, the APX system allows to calibrate the mitigation of the lifting of the front wheel and the power, the traction control and the motor brake for each march. The APX system is completed with an integrated GPS system. On the other hand, the double crib aluminum chassis is reinforced by an Öhlins mechanical control suspension with specific configuration, where the refined presurized fork stands out.
The Brembo brake system includes a 19 × 16 front brake pump combined with GP4 MS and Z04 pills that hold DP 330 brake discs “T Drive” of 5.5 ″. The set is integrated into marchesini tires forged in magnesium, shoes with the same smooth tires as Pirelli uses in the World Superbike Championship (125/70 CS-1 in front and 200/65 SC-X behind).
At the level of finishes we can highlight for example as both fenders are carbon. The right handlebar buttons panel is jetprime, while adjustable stirruras, clutch handle, fuel cap, crankcase protectors and the Spider front brake handle, as well as the steering plate with the production number, are made in CNC. Overdimensive water and oil radiators incorporate WSBK technology, while the transmission includes a titanium rear crown and a lighter front crown of PBR, in addition to an RK 520 chain.
