MAX
DESIGN
SINGLE SILENCER
The same level of attention and innovation is found in all the other elements:
like the compact single silencer, whose shape is designed to increase the space
between the bike and asphalt, also during the tightest of bends.
BOARD COMPUTER
Ultra compact and advanced technology also for the instrument panel.
The mixed (digital and analogue) type instrument panel receives all the
information from the CAN line turning into a real self-diagnostic system for the
vehicle. All functions are controlled by the “Mode” control on the handlebar.
RSV4 FACTORY’S IRRESISTIBILITY CAN BE PUT DOWN TO THE FACT
THAT IT HAS BEEN DESIGNED WITH ITS APPEARANCE COMING
SECOND IN ORDER OF IMPORTANCE. THIS BECAUSE IT WAS
CREATED FOR THE WORLD OF COMPETITIONS WHERE EVERY INCH,
EVERY OUNCE AND EVERY THOUSANDTH OF A SECOND COUNT.
A BIKE AS COMPACT AND AS EFFICIENT AS THIS ONE HAS NEVER
BEEN SEEN BEFORE: THAT’S WHY IT IS SO BEAUTIFUL.
THE SHAPE
OF PERFORMANCE.
The chassis and engine are an integral part of the bike’s
design together with just a few other highly influential
elements, designed looking at the track all the time and
modelled in the wind gallery.
Search for optimum engine breathing and the highest
aerodynamic levels has led to the creation of a
completely unique front with large air intakes for the
airbox, lights that outline the edge of the top fairing
and with the turn indicators integrated in the rear-view
mirrors. The spectacular tail fairing offers excellent LED
luminosity, minimising the surface while increasing the
bike’s aerodynamic efficiency.
