Saturday, 14 September 2024 07:05 PM The 2024 Aprilia RS 457 has been making waves in the lightweight sportbike segment with its aggressive styling and robust performance. This bike, priced at Rs. 5,19,000 (approximately $6,799), features a 457cc parallel-twin engine producing 47.6 horsepower and 32 ft-lb of torque. It also boasts three riding modes, adjustable traction control, and ABS settings. I think this bike is a great option for both new and experienced riders looking for a blend of agility and power.
Wednesday, 24 April 2024 04:38 PM Aprilia hosted a global media event at the Autodromo di Modena in Italy to showcase the RS 457s racing credentials. The event highlighted the bikes nimble and agile chassis, a characteristic that Aprilia is known for. The RS 457s engine, designed from scratch, includes features like a horizontally divided crankcase and DLC piston pin treatment to reduce internal friction. This attention to detail makes the RS 457 a compelling choice in the sub-500cc market.
Saturday, 06 April 2024 02:57 PM The 2024 Aprilia RS 457 is manufactured in India, which helps keep its price competitive at Rs. 5,19,000. Despite being built in India, the bike retains its Italian design and engineering prowess, making it an attractive option for riders seeking a premium lightweight sportbike. The bikes electronics package, including adjustable engine power modes and traction control, adds to its appeal. I believe this strategic move by Aprilia will help them gain a strong foothold in the Indian market.
Saturday, 06 April 2024 07:08 AM Aprilias RS 457 features a 270-degree crankshaft, similar to the one in the RS 660, which gives the bike a lively and engaging exhaust note. The bikes broad powerband, with 82% of peak torque available at 3000 rpm, makes it accessible to riders across various skill levels. The use of TVS Eurogrip Protorq Extreme tires as standard and the option to upgrade to Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa V4 SP rubber for track use adds to its versatility.
Saturday, 06 April 2024 06:40 PM The Aprilia RS 457 has a sporty riding position described as sport casual, which balances comfort and performance. The bikes seat height is 31.5 inches, and it has a curb weight of 386 pounds. The fuel capacity is 3.4 gallons, and it comes with a two-year warranty. I think the riding position and overall ergonomics make it a great choice for daily riding as well as occasional track days.
Saturday, 06 April 2024 10:16 AM Aprilias entry into the lightweight sportbike segment with the RS 457 is seen as a strategic move to capture the upper crust of riders. The bike fills a niche in Aprilias model lineup, serving as an entry-level option in the U.S., an A2 tiered license option in Europe, and a big bike option in Asia. Its design, inspired by the larger RSV4, makes it stand out in a segment that has grown stale. I believe this bike will attract a lot of attention from riders looking for something unique and performance-oriented.
Saturday, 06 April 2024 10:33 AM The Aprilia RS 457 boasts a class-leading chassis design with a 41mm inverted fork and a monoshock, both of which offer firm handling without being overly stiff. The bikes suspension setup is designed to provide good feedback, making it suitable for riders of various skill levels. The use of sturdier springs and damping compared to other bikes in this segment is a notable feature.
Saturday, 06 April 2024 05:53 PM Aprilia has integrated advanced electronics into the RS 457, including three riding modes, adjustable traction control, and ABS settings. While it does not feature an IMU-supported system, the aids are tuned to interject only when necessary, making it suitable for both road and track use. I think the balance between electronic assistance and rider control is well-executed in this bike.
Saturday, 06 April 2024 07:06 AM The 2024 Aprilia RS 457 comes in three color options: Prismatic Dark, Racing Stripes, and Opalescent Light. The bikes design is heavily influenced by Aprilias larger sport models, such as the RSV4 and RS 660, giving it a big-bike look despite its smaller engine size. I believe the aesthetics will be a major draw for many potential buyers.
Saturday, 06 April 2024 11:28 AM Aprilias decision to manufacture the RS 457 in India has helped keep the MSRP at Rs. 5,19,000, making it more accessible to a wider range of riders. Despite the lower price point, the bike does not compromise on quality and performance, making it a strong contender in the lightweight sportbike market.
